HIFAR, Hyp Instruction Fault Address Register
The HIFAR characteristics are:
Purpose
Holds the virtual address of the faulting address that caused a synchronous Prefetch Abort exception that is taken to Hyp mode.
Configuration
AArch32 System register HIFAR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register FAR_EL2[63:32] .
AArch32 System register HIFAR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register IFAR[31:0] (S) when HaveEL(EL2), HaveEL(EL3) and HighestELUsingAArch32().
If EL2 is not implemented, this register is RES0 from EL3.
RW fields in this register reset to architecturally UNKNOWN values.
Attributes
HIFAR is a 32-bit register.
Field descriptions
The HIFAR 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 |
| VA of faulting address of synchronous Prefetch Abort exception taken to Hyp mode | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Bits [31:0]
VA of faulting address of synchronous Prefetch Abort exception taken to Hyp mode.
On a Data Abort exception, this register is UNKNOWN.
Any execution in a Non-secure EL1 or Non-secure EL0 mode makes this register UNKNOWN.
This field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
Accessing the HIFAR
Accesses to this register use the following encodings:
MRC{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
| coproc | opc1 | CRn | CRm | opc2 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 0b1111 | 0b100 | 0b0110 | 0b0000 | 0b010 |
