The ISR characteristics are:
Shows the pending status of the IRQ, FIQ, or External abort. When executing at EL2, EL3 or secure EL1, this shows the pending status of the physical interrupts. When executing at Non-secure EL1:
This register is part of the Exception and fault handling registers functional group.
There is one instance of this register that is used in both Secure and Non-secure states.
AArch32 System register ISR is architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register ISR_EL1.
ISR is a 32-bit register.
The ISR bit assignments are:
31 | 30 | 29 | 28 | 27 | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | A | I | F | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
Reserved, RES0.
Asynchronous External abort pending bit:
A | Meaning |
---|---|
0 |
No pending asynchronous External abort. |
1 |
An asynchronous External abort is pending. |
IRQ pending bit. Indicates whether an IRQ interrupt is pending:
I | Meaning |
---|---|
0 |
No pending IRQ. |
1 |
An IRQ interrupt is pending. |
FIQ pending bit. Indicates whether an FIQ interrupt is pending.
F | Meaning |
---|---|
0 |
No pending FIQ. |
1 |
An FIQ interrupt is pending. |
Reserved, RES0.
This register can be read using MRC with the following syntax:
MRC <syntax>
This syntax uses the following encoding in the System instruction encoding space:
<syntax> | opc1 | opc2 | CRn | coproc | CRm |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
p15, 0, <Rt>, c12, c1, 0 | 000 | 000 | 1100 | 1111 | 0001 |
The register is accessible as follows:
Control | Accessibility | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
E2H | TGE | NS | EL0 | EL1 | EL2 | EL3 |
x | x | 0 | - | RO | n/a | RO |
x | 0 | 1 | - | RO | RO | RO |
x | 1 | 1 | - | n/a | RO | RO |
This table applies to all instructions that can access this register.
For a description of the prioritization of any generated exceptions, see section G1.11.2 (Exception priority order) in the ARM® Architecture Reference Manual, ARMv8, for ARMv8-A architecture profile for exceptions taken to AArch32 state, and section D1.13.2 (Synchronous exception prioritization) for exceptions taken to AArch64 state. Subject to the prioritization rules, the following traps and enables are applicable when accessing this register.
When EL2 is implemented and is using AArch64 and SCR_EL3.NS==1 && HCR_EL2.E2H==0 :
If HSTR_EL2.T12==1, Non-secure read accesses to this register from EL1 are trapped to EL2.
When EL2 is implemented and is using AArch64 and SCR_EL3.NS==1 && HCR_EL2.E2H==1 && HCR_EL2.TGE==0 :
If HSTR_EL2.T12==1, Non-secure read accesses to this register from EL1 are trapped to EL2.
When EL2 is implemented and is using AArch32 and SCR_EL3.NS==1 :
If HSTR.T12==1, Non-secure read accesses to this register from EL1 are trapped to Hyp mode.
