The ID_ISAR3 characteristics are:
Provides information about the instruction sets implemented by the PE in AArch32 state.
Must be interpreted with ID_ISAR0, ID_ISAR1, ID_ISAR2, ID_ISAR4, and ID_ISAR5.
For general information about the interpretation of the ID registers see 'Principles of the ID scheme for fields in ID registers' in the ARMv8 ARM, section G4.14.6.
This register is part of the Identification registers functional group.
There is one instance of this register that is used in both Secure and Non-secure states.
AArch32 System register ID_ISAR3 is architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register ID_ISAR3_EL1.
ID_ISAR3 is a 32-bit register.
The ID_ISAR3 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 |

TabBranch | Meaning |
---|---|
0000 |
None implemented. |

Adds the TBB and TBH instructions. |
All other values are reserved.
In ARMv8-A the only permitted value is 0001.
Used in conjunction with ID_ISAR4.SynchPrim_frac to indicate the implemented Synchronization Primitive instructions. Defined values are:
SynchPrim | Meaning |
---|---|
0000 |
If SynchPrim_frac == 0000, no Synchronization Primitives implemented. |
0001 |
If SynchPrim_frac == 0000, adds the LDREX and STREX instructions. If SynchPrim_frac == 0011, also adds the CLREX, LDREXB, STREXB, and STREXH instructions. |
0010 |
If SynchPrim_frac == 0000, as for [0001, 0011] and also adds the LDREXD and STREXD instructions. |
All other combinations of SynchPrim and SynchPrim_frac are reserved.
In ARMv8-A the only permitted value is 0010.
Indicates the implemented SVC instructions. Defined values are:
SVC | Meaning |
---|---|
0000 |
Not implemented. |
0001 |
Adds the SVC instruction. |
All other values are reserved.
In ARMv8-A the only permitted value is 0001.
Indicates the implemented SIMD instructions. Defined values are:
SIMD | Meaning |
---|---|
0000 |
None implemented. |
0001 |
Adds the SSAT and USAT instructions, and the Q bit in the PSRs. |
0011 |
As for 0001, and adds the PKHBT, PKHTB, QADD16, QADD8, QASX, QSUB16, QSUB8, QSAX, SADD16, SADD8, SASX, SEL, SHADD16, SHADD8, SHASX, SHSUB16, SHSUB8, SHSAX, SSAT16, SSUB16, SSUB8, SSAX, SXTAB16, SXTB16, UADD16, UADD8, UASX, UHADD16, UHADD8, UHASX, UHSUB16, UHSUB8, UHSAX, UQADD16, UQADD8, UQASX, UQSUB16, UQSUB8, UQSAX, USAD8, USADA8, USAT16, USUB16, USUB8, USAX, UXTAB16, and UXTB16 instructions. Also adds support for the GE[3:0] bits in the PSRs. |
All other values are reserved.
In ARMv8-A the only permitted value is 0011.
The SIMD field relates only to implemented instructions that perform SIMD operations on the general-purpose registers. In an implementation that supports floating-point and Advanced SIMD instructions, MVFR0, MVFR1, and MVFR2 give information about the implemented Advanced SIMD instructions.
Indicates the implemented Saturate instructions. Defined values are:
Saturate | Meaning |
---|---|
0000 |
None implemented. This means no non-Advanced SIMD saturate instructions are implemented. |
0001 |

All other values are reserved.
In ARMv8-A the only permitted value is 0001.
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:

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 HCR_EL2.TID3==1, Non-secure read accesses to this register from EL1 are trapped to EL2.
If HSTR_EL2.T0==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 :
