HTTBR, Hyp Translation Table Base Register

The HTTBR characteristics are:

Purpose

Holds the base address of the translation table for the initial lookup for stage 1 of an address translation in the EL2 translation regime, and other information for this translation regime.

Configuration

AArch32 System register HTTBR bits [47:1] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register TTBR0_EL2[47:1] .

If EL2 is not implemented, this register is RES0 from EL3.

RW fields in this register reset to architecturally UNKNOWN values.

Attributes

HTTBR is a 64-bit register.

Field descriptions

The HTTBR bit assignments are:

Bits [63:48]

Reserved, RES0.

BADDR, bits [47:1]

Translation table base address, bits[47:x], Bits [x-1:1] are RES0, with the additional requirement that if bits[x-1:3] are not all zero, this is a misaligned translation table base address, with effects that are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE, and must be one of the following:

x is determined from the value of HTCR.T0SZ as follows:

If bits[47:40] of the translation table base address are not zero, an Address size fault is generated.

This field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

CnP, bit [0]

When ARMv8.2-TTCNP is implemented:

Common not Private. This bit indicates whether each entry that is pointed to by HTTBR is a member of a common set that can be used by every PE in the Inner Shareable domain for which the value of HTTBR.CnP is 1.

CnPMeaning
0b0

The translation table entries pointed to by HTTBR are permitted to differ from corresponding entries for HTTBR for other PEs in the Inner Shareable domain. This is not affected by the value of HTTBR.CnP on those other PEs.

0b1

The translation table entries pointed to by HTTBR are the same as the translation table entries pointed to by HTTBR on every other PE in the Inner Shareable domain for which the value of HTTBR.CnP is 1.

Note

If the value of the HTTBR.CnP bit is 1 on multiple PEs in the same Inner Shareable domain and those HTTBRs do not point to the same translation table entries when the other conditions specified for the case when the value of CnP is 1 apply, then the results of translations are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE, see 'CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE behaviors due to caching of control or data values' in the Arm® Architecture Reference Manual, Armv8, for Armv8-A architecture profile.

This field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.


Otherwise:

Reserved, RES0.

Accessing the HTTBR

Accesses to this register use the following encodings:
