Field Map

Understand mconfigptr By Bit Fields

1 key fields
XLEN-1:0

VALUE

RO

Full register value of mconfigptr; bits not split out here follow the relevant extension or privileged specification, and reserved or WPRI fields should be preserved when writing other fields and ignored on reads.

VALUE (bits XLEN-1:0) — Full register value of mconfigptr; bits not split out here follow the relevant extension or privileged specification, and reserved or WPRI fields should be preserved when writing other fields and ignored on reads.

What This Field Controls

  • - Full register value of mconfigptr; bits not split out here follow the relevant extension or privileged specification, and reserved or WPRI fields should be preserved when writing other fields and ignored on reads.

Common Values

This field is better understood together with surrounding context than as a fixed memorized enumeration.

What To Check First When Reading This CSR

  • - First confirm that the current hart implements mconfigptr; unimplemented or insufficiently privileged accesses raise an illegal-instruction exception.
  • - Use address 0xF15 and the lowest access privilege (Machine) to decide whether software may read it directly.
  • - Do not assume fixed values for reserved, WARL, or WLRL bits; interpret the value according to the specification and implementation.

Risk Checks Before Writing

  • - mconfigptr is a read-only CSR; writes raise an illegal-instruction exception or are disallowed by the implementation.

Put It Back Into A Real Flow

1

Read mconfigptr to obtain hardware or runtime state.

2

Interpret the returned value according to the field descriptions and do not attempt to write it back.

3

If reading fails at the current privilege level, handle the illegal-instruction exception path.
