MPAMHCR_EL2, MPAM Hypervisor Control Register (EL2)

The MPAMHCR_EL2 characteristics are:

Purpose

Controls the PARTID virtualization features of MPAM. It controls the mapping of virtual PARTIDs into physical PARTIDs in MPAM0_EL1 when EL0_VPMEN == 1 and in MPAM1_EL1 when EL1_VPMEN == 1.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_MPAM is implemented and MPAMIDR_EL1.HAS_HCR == 1. Otherwise, direct accesses to MPAMHCR_EL2 are UNDEFINED.

This register has no effect if EL2 is not enabled in the current Security state.

Attributes

MPAMHCR_EL2 is a 64-bit register.

TRAP_MPAMIDR_EL1RES0GSTAPP_PLKRES0EL1_VPMENEL0_VPMEN

Bits [63:32]

Reserved, RES0.

TRAP_MPAMIDR_EL1, bit [31]

Trap accesses from EL1 to MPAMIDR_EL1 to EL2.

TRAP_MPAMIDR_EL1Meaning
0b0

This control does not cause any instructions to be trapped.

0b1

Direct accesses to MPAMIDR_EL1 from EL1 are trapped to EL2.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Bits [30:9]

Reserved, RES0.

GSTAPP_PLK, bit [8]

Make the PARTIDs at EL0 the same as the PARTIDs at EL1. When executing at EL0, EL2 is enabled, HCR_EL2.TGE == 0 and GSTAPP_PLK = 1, MPAM1_EL1 is used instead of MPAM0_EL1 to generate MPAM labels for memory requests.

GSTAPP_PLKMeaning
0b0

MPAM0_EL1 is used to generate MPAM labels when executing at EL0.

0b1

MPAM1_EL1 is used to generate MPAM labels when executing at EL0 with EL2 enabled and HCR_EL2.TGE == 0. Otherwise MPAM0_EL1 is used.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Bits [7:2]

Reserved, RES0.

EL1_VPMEN, bit [1]

Enable the virtual PARTID mapping of the PARTID fields in MPAM1_EL1 when executing at EL1. This bit also enables virtual PARTID mapping when MPAM1_EL1 is used to generate MPAM labels for memory requests at EL0 due to GSTAPP_PLK == 1.

EL1_VPMENMeaning
0b0

MPAM1_EL1.PARTID_I and MPAM1_EL1.PARTID_D are physical PARTIDs that are used to label memory system requests.

0b1

MPAM1_EL1.PARTID_I and MPAM1_EL1.PARTID_D are virtual PARTIDs that are used to index the PhyPARTID fields of MPAMVPM0_EL2 to MPAMVPM7_EL2 registers to map the virtual PARTID into a physical PARTID to label memory system requests.

The reset behavior of this field is:

EL0_VPMEN, bit [0]

Enable the virtual PARTID mapping of the PARTID fields of MPAM0_EL1 unless HCR_EL2.E2H == 1 and HCR_EL2.TGE == 1.

When HCR_EL2.E2H == 1 and HCR_EL2.TGE == 1, EL0_VPMEN is ignored and MPAM0_EL1 PARTID fields are not mapped.

When MPAMHCR_EL2.GSTAPP_PLK == 1 and HCR_EL2.TGE == 0, MPAM1_EL1 is used as the source of PARTIDs and the virtual PARTID mapping of MPAM1_EL1 PARTIDs is controlled by MPAMHCR_EL2.EL1_VPMEN.

EL0_VPMENMeaning
0b0

MPAM0_EL1.PARTID_I and MPAM0_EL1.PARTID_D are physical PARTIDs that are used to label memory system requests.

0b1

MPAM0_EL1.PARTID_I and MPAM0_EL1.PARTID_D are virtual PARTIDs that are used to index the PhyPARTID fields of MPAMVPM0_EL2 to MPAMVPM7_EL2 registers to map the virtual PARTID into a physical PARTID to label memory system requests.
