The TTBR0_EL3 characteristics are:
Holds the base address of the translation table for the initial lookup for stage 1 of an address translation in the EL3 translation regime, and other information for this translation regime.
This register is part of the Virtual memory control registers functional group.
RW fields in this register reset to architecturally UNKNOWN values.
TTBR0_EL3 is a 64-bit register.
The TTBR0_EL3 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 |

Any of the fields in this register are permitted to be cached in a TLB.
Reserved, RES0.
Translation table base address, A[47:x] or A[51:x].
In an implementation that includes ARMv8.2-LPA, if the value of TCR_EL3.PS is 110 then:
In an implementation that includes ARMv8.2-LPA a TCR_EL3.PS value of 110, that selects a PA size of 52 bits, is permitted only when using the 64KB translation granule.
When the value of ID_AA64MMFR0_EL1.PARange indicates that the implementation does not support a 52 bit PA size, if a translation table lookup uses this register with the 64KB translation granule when the value of TCR_EL3.PS is 110 and the value of register bits[5:2] is nonzero it is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether an Address size fault is generated, but ARM deprecates not generating an Address size fault.
If the Effective value of TCR_EL3.PS is not 110 then:
This definition applies:
If any TTBR0_EL3[47:0] bit that is defined as RES0 has the value 1 when a translation table walk is performed using TTBR0_EL3, then the translation table base address might be misaligned, with effects that are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE, and must be one of the following:
The AArch64 Virtual Memory System Architecture chapter describes how x is calculated based on the value of TCR_EL3.T0SZ, the stage of translation, and the translation granule size.
Common not Private. In an implementation that includes ARMv8.2-TTCNP, indicates whether each entry that is pointed to by TTBR0_EL3 is a member of a common set that can be used by every PE in the Inner Shareable domain for which the value of TTBR0_EL3.CnP is 1.
CnP | Meaning |
---|---|
0 |
The translation table entries pointed to by TTBR0_EL3, for the current translation regime, are permitted to differ from corresponding entries for TTBR0_EL3 for other PEs in the Inner Shareable domain. This is not affected by the value of TTBR0_EL3.CnP on those other PEs. |
1 |
The translation table entries pointed to by TTBR0_EL3 are the same as the translation table entries for every other PE in the Inner Shareable domain for which the value of TTBR0_EL3.CnP is 1 and the translation table entries are pointed to by TTBR0_EL3. |
If the value of the TTBR0_EL3.CnP bit is 1 on multiple PEs in the same Inner Shareable domain and those TTBR0_EL3s do not point to the same translation table entries the results of translations using TTBR0_EL3 are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE, see 'CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE behaviors due to caching of control or data values' in the ARMv8-A ARM appendix K1.
In an implementation that does not include ARMv8.2-TTCNP this field is RES0.
