ERR<n>PFGF, Pseudo-fault Generation Feature Register, n = 0 - 65534

The ERR<n>PFGF characteristics are:

Purpose

Defines which common architecturally-defined fault generation features are implemented.

Configuration

This register is present only when error record <n> is implemented, the node implements the RAS Common Fault Injection Model Extension (ERR<n>FR.INJ != 0b00) and error record <n> is the first error record owned by a node. Otherwise, direct accesses to ERR<n>PFGF are RES0.

ERR<n>FR describes the features implemented by the node.

Attributes

ERR<n>PFGF is a 64-bit register.

Bits [63:31]

Reserved, RES0.

R, bit [30]

Restartable. Support for Error Generation Counter restart mode.

RMeaning
0b0

The node does not support this feature. ERR<n>PFGCTL.R is RES0.

0b1

ErrorFeature Generation Counter restart mode is implemented and is controlled bycontrollable. ERR<n>PFGCTL.R. ERR<n>PFGCTL.R is a read/write field.

SYN, bit [29]

Syndrome. Fault syndrome injection.

SYNMeaning
0b0

When an injected error is recorded, the node sets ERR<n>STATUS.{IERR, SERR} to IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED values. ERR<n>STATUS.{IERR, SERR} are UNKNOWN when ERR<n>STATUS.V is== 0.

0b1

When an injected error is recorded, the node does not update the ERR<n>STATUS.{IERR, SERR} fields. ERR<n>STATUS.{IERR, SERR} are writable when ERR<n>STATUS.V is== 0.

Note

If ERR<n>PFGF.SYN is== 1, software can write specific values into the ERR<n>STATUS.{IERR, SERR} fields when setting up a fault injection event. The sets of values that can be written to these fields is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.

NA, bit [28]

No access required. Defines whether this component fakes detection of the error on an access to the component or spontaneously in the fault injection state.

NAMeaning
0b0

The component fakes detection of the error on an access to the component.

0b1

The component fakes detection of the error spontaneously in the fault injection state.

Bits [27:13]

Reserved, RES0.

MV, bit [12]

Miscellaneous syndrome.

Additional syndrome injection. Defines whether software can control all or part of the syndrome recorded in the ERR<n>MISC<m> registers when an injected error is recorded.

It is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED which syndrome fields in ERR<n>MISC<m> this refers to, as some fields might always be recorded by an error. For example, a Corrected Error counter.

MVMeaning
0b0

When an injected error is recorded, the node might update ERR<n>MISC<m>. If any syndrome is recorded by the node in ERR<n>MISC<m>, then ERR<n>STATUS.MV is set to 1.

When an injected error is recorded, the node might record IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED additional syndrome in ERR<n>MISC<m>. If any syndrome is recorded in ERR<n>MISC<m>, then ERR<n>STATUS.MV is set to 1.

ERR<n>PFGCTL.MV is RES0.

0b1

When an injected error is recorded, the node mightdoes not update some,all butthe notsyndrome allfields in the ERR<n>MISC<m> syndromeand fields,does andone updatesof: ERR<n>STATUS.MV as follows:

  • IfThe anynode syndromedoes isnot recordedupdate byany thefields node in ERR<n>MISC<m>,> thenand sets ERR<n>STATUS.MV is set to 1. ERR<n>PFGCTL.MV.
  • Otherwise,The node records some syndrome in ERR<n>MISC<m> and sets ERR<n>STATUS.MV isto set to1. ERR<n>PFGCTL.MV.MV is RAO/WI.

ItThe issyndrome fields that the node does not update are unchanged and are writable when IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED which ERR<n>MISC<m> syndrome fields, if any, are updated. Some syndrome fields might always be updated by the node when an error is recorded. For example, a corrected error counter might always be updated when any countable error, including a countable injected error, is recorded. Other ERR<n>MISC<m> syndrome fields are not updated by the node and are writable when ERR<n>STATUS.MV is== 0.

If the node always sets ERR<n>STATUS.MV to 1 when recording an injected error then ERR<n>PFGCTL.MV is RAO/WI, otherwise ERR<n>PFGCTL.MV is a read/write field.

Note

If ERR<n>PFGF.MV is== 1, software can write specific additional syndrome values into the ERR<n>MISC<m> registers when setting up a fault injection event. The values that can be written to these registers are IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED.

AV, bit [11]

Address syndrome. Address syndrome injection.

AVMeaning
0b0

When an injected error is recorded, the node either sets ERR<n>ADDR and ERR<n>STATUS.AV for the access, or leaves these unchanged. ERR<n>PFGCTL.AV is RES0.

0b1

When an injected error is recorded, the node does not update ERR<n>ADDR and does one of:

ERR<n>ADDR is writable when ERR<n>STATUS.AV is== 0.

Note

If ERR<n>PFGF.AV is== 1, software can write a specific address value into ERR<n>ADDR when setting up a fault injection event.
