4.2.11 Instruction Set Attributes Registers
There are eight Instruction Set Attributes Registers, ISAR0 to ISAR7, but three of these are
currently unused. This section describes:
•
c0, Instruction Set Attributes Register 0, ISAR0
• c0, Instruction Set Attributes Register 1, ISAR1 on page 4-27
• c0, Instruction Set Attributes Register 2, ISAR2 on page 4-28
• c0, Instruction Set Attributes Register 3, ISAR3 on page 4-30
• c0, Instruction Set Attributes Register 4, ISAR4 on page 4-31
• c0, Instruction Set Attributes Registers 5-7 on page 4-32.
c0, Instruction Set Attributes Register 0, ISAR0
The Instruction Set Attributes Register 0 provides information about the instruction set that the
processor supports beyond the basic set.
The Instruction Set Attributes Register 0 is:
•
a read-only register
• accessible in Privileged mode only.
Figure 4-19 shows the bit arrangement for Instruction Set Attributes Register 0.
