IFAR, Instruction Fault Address Register

The IFAR characteristics are:

Purpose

Holds the virtual address of the faulting address that caused a synchronous Prefetch Abort exception.

Configuration

AArch32 System register IFAR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register FAR_EL1[63:32].

AArch32 System register IFAR bits [31:0] (IFAR_S) are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register HIFAR[31:0] when EL2 is implemented, EL3 is implemented and the implementation only supports execution in AArch32 state.

AArch32 System register IFAR bits [31:0] (IFAR_S) are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register FAR_EL2[63:32] when EL2 is implemented.

This register is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to IFAR are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

IFAR is a 32-bit register.

Accessing IFAR

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
