MPAMBW0_EL1, MPAM PE-side Maximum-bandwidth Control Register (EL0)

The MPAMBW0_EL1 characteristics are:

Purpose

Enables software to configure a maximum fraction of memory bandwidth that the PE is permitted to use when executing at EL0 with its current PARTID.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_MPAM_PE_BW_CTRL is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to MPAMBW0_EL1 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

MPAMBW0_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

HW_SCALE_ENABLEENABLEDHARDLIMRES0
MAX

HW_SCALE_ENABLE, bit [63]
When MPAMBWIDR_EL1.HAS_HW_SCALE == 1:

Enables hardware bandwidth scaling of the MPAMBW0_EL1.MAX value.

HW_SCALE_ENABLEMeaning
0b0

PE-side memory bandwidth control hardware scaling in EL0 is disabled.

0b1

PE-side memory bandwidth control hardware scaling in EL0 is enabled.

The reset behavior of this field is:


Otherwise:

Reserved, RES0.

ENABLED, bit [62]

Enables the PE-side memory bandwidth control when in EL0.

ENABLEDMeaning
0b0

The PE-side memory bandwidth control in EL0 is disabled.

0b1

The PE-side memory bandwidth control in EL0 is enabled.

The reset behavior of this field is:

HARDLIM, bit [61]

PE-side Maximum Bandwidth Limit Behavior Selection.

HARDLIMMeaning
0b0

Soft limit: when MPAMBW0_EL1.MAX bandwidth is exceeded, the PE is unregulated unless the downstream memory path is saturated. It is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED how hardware determines when the downstream memory path is saturated.

0b1

Hard limit: when MPAMBW0_EL1.MAX bandwidth is exceeded, the PE does not use any more bandwidth until the memory bandwidth for the PE falls below MPAMBW0_EL1.MAX.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing this field has the following behavior:

Bits [60:32]

Reserved, RES0.

MAX, bits [31:0]

MAX encoding when MPAMBWIDR_EL1.HAS_HW_SCALE == 1 and MPAMBW0_EL1.HW_SCALE_ENABLE == 1

MAX

MAX, bits [31:0]

Maximum memory bandwidth allocated to the PE when executing at EL0 with its current PARTID.

The value is represented as a multiplier of the available bandwidth for the PE. The value is represented in base-2 fixed-point format.

Bits [31:16] represent the integer part of the value.

Bits [15:(16 - MPAMBWIDR_EL1.BWA_WD)] represent the fractional part of the value. When MPAMBWIDR_EL1.BWA_WD indicates a width less than 16 bits, bits [(15 - MPAMBWIDR_EL1.BWA_WD):0] are RES0.

The reset behavior of this field is:

  • On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

MAX encoding when MPAMBWIDR_EL1.HAS_HW_SCALE == 0 or MPAMBW0_EL1.HW_SCALE_ENABLE == 0

RES0MAX

Bits [31:16]

Reserved, RES0.

MAX, bits [15:0]

Maximum memory bandwidth allocated to the PE when executing at EL0 with its current PARTID.

The value is represented as a fraction of the available bandwidth for the PE. The value is represented in base-2 fixed-point format.

Bits [15:(16 - MPAMBWIDR_EL1.BWA_WD)] represent the fractional part of the value. When MPAMBWIDR_EL1.BWA_WD indicates a width less than 16 bits, bits [(15 - MPAMBWIDR_EL1.BWA_WD):0] are RES0.

The reset behavior of this field is:

  • On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
