B2.87
Reset Management Register, EL3
The RMR_EL3 characteristics are:
Purpose
Controls the execution state that the processor boots into and allows request of a warm reset.
Usage constraints
This register is accessible as follows:
EL0 EL1
(NS)
EL1
(S)
EL2 EL3
(SCR.NS = 1)
EL3
(SCR.NS = 0)

This register is subject to the
CP15SDISABLE2
control, which prevents writing to this register
when the
CP15SDISABLE2
signal is asserted.
Configurations
The RMR_EL3 is architecturally mapped to the AArch32 RMR register. See
Attributes
RMR_EL3 is a 32-bit register.

.
RR, [1]
Reset Request. The possible values are:
0
This is the reset value.
1
Requests a warm reset. This bit is set to 0 by either a cold or warm reset.
The bit is strictly a request.
AA64, [0]
Determines which execution state the processor boots into after a warm reset. The possible
values are:
0
AArch32 Execution state.
1
AArch64 Execution state.
The reset vector address on reset takes a choice between two values, depending on the value in
the AA64 bit. This ensures that even with reprogramming of the AA64 bit, it is not possible to
change the reset vector to go to a different location.
The cold reset value depends on the
AA64nAA32
signal.
