ID_PFR1, Processor Feature Register 1

The ID_PFR1 characteristics are:

Purpose

Gives information about the AArch32 programmers' model.

Must be interpreted with ID_PFR0.

For general information about the interpretation of the ID registers see 'Principles of the ID scheme for fields in ID registers' in the Arm® Architecture Reference Manual, Armv8, for Armv8-A architecture profile, section G7.1.3.

Configuration

AArch32 System register ID_PFR1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register ID_PFR1_EL1[31:0] .

Attributes

ID_PFR1 is a 32-bit register.

Field descriptions

The ID_PFR1 bit assignments are:

GIC, bits [31:28]

System register GIC CPU interface. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

Virt_frac, bits [27:24]

Virtualization fractional field. When the Virtualization field is 0b0000, determines the support for features from the ARMv7 Virtualization Extensions. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the permitted values are:

• 0b0000 when EL2 is implemented.
• 0b0001 when EL2 is not implemented.

This field is only valid when the value of ID_PFR1.Virtualization is 0, otherwise it holds the value 0b0000.

Sec_frac, bits [23:20]

Security fractional field. When the Security field is 0b0000, determines the support for features from the ARMv7 Security Extensions. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the permitted values are:

• 0b0000 when EL3 is implemented.
• 0b0001 or 0b0010 when EL3 is not implemented.

This field is only valid when the value of ID_PFR1.Security is 0, otherwise it holds the value 0b0000.

GenTimer, bits [19:16]

Generic Timer support. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the only permitted value is 0b0001.

Virtualization, bits [15:12]

Virtualization support. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the permitted values are:

• 0b0000 when EL2 is not implemented.
• 0b0001 when EL2 is implemented.

In an implementation that includes EL2, if EL2 cannot use AArch32 but EL1 can use AArch32 then this field has the value 0b0001.

MProgMod, bits [11:8]

M profile programmers' model support. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the only permitted value is 0b0000.

Security, bits [7:4]

Security support. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the permitted values are:

• 0b0000 when EL3 is not implemented.
• 0b0001 when EL3 is implemented.

In an implementation that includes EL3, if EL3 cannot use AArch32 but EL1 can use AArch32 then this field has the value 0b0001.

ProgMod, bits [3:0]

Support for the standard programmers' model for ARMv4 and later. Model must support User, FIQ, IRQ, Supervisor, Abort, Undefined, and System modes. Defined values are:

All other values are reserved.

In Armv8-A the only permitted value is 0b0001.
