The GITS_TYPER characteristics are:
Specifies the features that an ITS supports.
GITS_TYPER is a 64-bit register.
The GITS_TYPER bit assignments are:
63 | 62 | 61 | 60 | 59 | 58 | 57 | 56 | 55 | 54 | 53 | 52 | 51 | 50 | 49 | 48 | 47 | 46 | 45 | 44 | 43 | 42 | 41 | 40 | 39 | 38 | 37 | 36 | 35 | 34 | 33 | 32 |

Reserved, RES0.
MPAM
MPAM | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
MPAM not supported. |
0b1 |
MPAM supported. |
Reserved, RES0.
Indicates the form of the VMOVP command.
VMOVP | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
When moving a vPE, software must issue a VMOVP on all ITSs that have mappings for that vPE. The ITSList and Sequence Number fields in the VMOVP command must ensure synchronization, otherwise behavior is UNPREDICTABLE. |
0b1 |
When moving a vPE, software must only issue a VMOVP on one of the ITSs that has a mapping for that vPE. The ITSList and Sequence Number fields in the VMOVP command are RES0. |
Collection ID Limit.
CIL | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
ITS supports 16-bit Collection ID, GITS_TYPER.CIDbits is RES0. |
0b1 |
GITS_TYPER.CIDbits indicates supported Collection ID size |
In implementations that do not support Collections in external memory, this bit is RES0 and the number of Collections supported is reported by GITS_TYPER.HCC.
Number of Collection ID bits.
Hardware Collection Count. The number of interrupt collections supported by the ITS without provisioning of external memory.
Collections held in hardware are unmapped at reset.
Reserved, RES0.
Physical Target Addresses. Indicates the format of the target address:
PTA | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
The target address corresponds to the PE number specified by GICR_TYPER.Processor_Number. |
0b1 |
The target address corresponds to the base physical address of the required Redistributor. |
See Target addresses for more information.
SEI support. Indicates whether the virtual CPU interface supports generation of SEIs:
SEIS | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
The ITS does not support local generation of SEIs. |
0b1 |
The ITS supports local generation of SEIs. |
The number of DeviceID bits implemented, minus one.
The number of EventID bits implemented, minus one.
Read-only. Indicates the number of bytes per translation table entry, minus one.
See the ITS command 'MAPD' for more information.
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.
Cumulative Collection Tables.
CCT | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
The total number of supported collections is determined by the number of collections held in memory only. |
0b1 |
The total number of supported collections is determined by number of collections that are held in memory and the number indicated by GITS_TYPER.HCC. |
If GITS_TYPER.HCC==0, or if memory backed collections are not supported (all GITS_BASER<n>.Type != 100), this bit is RES0.
Indicates whether the ITS supports virtual LPIs and direct injection of virtual LPIs:
Virtual | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
The ITS does not support virtual LPIs or direct injection of virtual LPIs. |
0b1 |
The ITS supports virtual LPIs and direct injection of virtual LPIs. |
This field is RES0 in GICv3 implementations.
Indicates whether the ITS supports physical LPIs:
Physical | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
The ITS does not support physical LPIs. |
0b1 |
The ITS supports physical LPIs. |
This field is RES1, indicating that the ITS supports physical LPIs.
