System control block design hints and tips

Ensure software uses aligned accesses of the correct size to access the system control

block registers:

•

except for the CFSR and SHPR1-SHPR3, it must use aligned word accesses

•

for the CFSR and SHPR1-SHPR3 it can use byte or aligned halfword or word

accesses.

The processor does not support unaligned accesses to system control block registers.

In a fault handler. to determine the true faulting address:

Read and save the MMFAR or BFAR value.

Read the MMARVALID bit in the MMFSR, or the BFARVALID bit in the BFSR. The

MMFAR or BFAR address is valid only if this bit is 1.

Software must follow this sequence because another higher priority exception might change

the MMFAR or BFAR value. For example, if a higher priority handler preempts the current

fault handler, the other fault might change the MMFAR or BFAR value.

IMPDEF[31:16]

IMPDEF[15:0]

Bits 31:0

IMPDEF: Implementation defined. The AFSR contains additional system fault information. The

bits map to the AUXFAULT input signals.

This register is read, write to clear. This means that bits in the register read normally, but

writing 1 to any bit clears that bit to 0.

Each AFSR bit maps directly to an AUXFAULT input of the processor, and a single-cycle HIGH

signal on the input sets the corresponding AFSR bit to one. It remains set to 1 until you write 1

to the bit to clear it to zero.

When an AFSR bit is latched as one, an exception does not occur. Use an interrupt if an

exception is required.
