0
NaN operands propagate through to the output of a floating-point operation. This is the
reset value.
1
Any operation involving one or more NaNs returns the Default NaN.
The value of this bit only controls floating-point arithmetic. AArch32 Advanced SIMD
arithmetic always uses the Default NaN setting, regardless of the value of the DN bit.
FZ, [24]
Flush-to-zero mode control bit:
0
Flush-to-zero mode disabled. Behavior of the floating-point system is fully compliant
with the IEEE 754 standard. This is the reset value.
1
Flush-to-zero mode enabled.
The value of this bit only controls floating-point arithmetic. AArch32 Advanced SIMD
arithmetic always uses the Flush-to-zero setting, regardless of the value of the FZ bit.
RMode, [23:22]
Rounding Mode control field:
0b00
Round to Nearest
(RN) mode. This is the reset value.
0b01
Round towards Plus Infinity
(RP) mode.
0b10
Round towards Minus Infinity
(RM) mode.
0b11
Round towards Zero
(RZ) mode.
The specified rounding mode is used by almost all floating-point instructions. AArch32
Advanced SIMD arithmetic always uses the Round to Nearest setting, regardless of the value of
the RMode bits.

FZ16, [19]
Flush-to-zero mode control bit on half-precision data-processing instructions:
0
Flush-to-zero mode disabled. Behavior of the floating-point system is fully compliant
with the IEEE 754 standard.
1
Flush-to-zero mode enabled.

IDC, [7]
Input Denormal cumulative exception bit. This bit is set to 1 to indicate that the Input Denormal
exception has occurred since 0 was last written to this bit.

IXC, [4]
Inexact cumulative exception bit. This bit is set to 1 to indicate that the Inexact exception has
occurred since 0 was last written to this bit.
