RVBAR, Reset Vector Base Address Register

The RVBAR characteristics are:

Purpose

If EL3 is not implemented, contains the IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED address that execution starts from after reset when executing in AArch32 state.

Configuration

This register is present only when AArch32 is supported at EL0.any Exception level. Otherwise, direct accesses to RVBAR are UNDEFINED.

This register is only implemented if the highest Exception level implemented is capable of using AArch32, and is not EL3.

Attributes

RVBAR is a 32-bit register.
