摘要： A data processing apparatus is operable in a plurality of modes and in either a secure domain or a non-secure domain. When operating in a secure mode within the secure domain a program has access to secure data which is not accessible when the processor is operating in a non-secure mode. A vectored interrupt controller is provided to generate an exception handler address in response to an occurrence of an except condition. The vectored interrupt controller is programmable with parameters specifying for each exception condition whether an exception handler in the secure or the non-secure domain should be triggered and an exception handler address for use if the exception occurs when in the appropriate domain. The vectored interrupt controller also includes a parameter specifying a domain switching exception handler address for use if the exception condition occurs when the processor is not in the appropriate domain.

摘要： A method and apparatus for processing data when an interrupt is received during processing of a function at a point during the processing at which a portion of the function has been processed then a control parameter is accessed. In response to a control parameter having a value indicting that the function has idempotence, processing of the function is stopped, and information on progress of the function is discarded such that following completion of the interrupt the portion of the function that has already been processed is processed again. In response to the control parameter having a value indicating that the function does not have idempotence, processing of the function is suspended without discarding information on progress of the function that has already been processed such that following completion of the interrupt the processing is resumed from a point that it reached when it was suspended.

摘要： A data processing apparatus has address translation circuitry which is responsive to an access request specifying a virtual address, to perform a multi-stage address translation process to produce, via at least one intermediate address, a physical address in memory corresponding to the virtual address. The address translation circuitry references a storage unit, with each entry of the storage unit storing address translation information for one or more virtual addresses. Each entry has a field indicating whether the address translation information is consolidated address translation information or partial address translation information. If when processing an access request, it is determined that the relevant entry in the storage unit provides consolidated address translation information, the address translation circuitry produces a physical address directly from the consolidated address translation information. If on the other hand the relevant entry stores partial address translation information, the address translation circuitry produces an intermediate address from the partial address translation information and then performs the remainder of the multi-stage address translation process. Such an approach provides the performance benefits associated with a consolidated entry mechanism within the storage unit, while also allowing certain problem cases to be handled correctly and in an efficient manner.

摘要： An interrupt controller 2 is provided with priority registers 6 storing priority values P0-P9 used to determine prioritisation between received interrupt signals I0-I9. A priority value accessing circuit 10 provides multiple mappings to the priority values stored in dependence upon the priority value manager 16, 18, seeking to make an access. In this way, a first priority value manager 18, such as a secure operating system, can be given exclusive access to the highest priority values whilst a second priority value manager 16, such as a non-secure operating system, can be given access to a range of priority values as stored which are of a lower priority and yet as written or read by the non-secure operating system appear to the non-secure operating system to have a different, such as higher, priority level.

摘要： A data processing apparatus and method are provided for controlling access to registers. The data processing apparatus comprises a processing unit for performing data processing operations on data values, the processing unit having a plurality of modes of operation. A plurality of registers are provided for storing data values for access by the processing unit, with a subset of those registers being mode specific registers. Each mode specific register is used by the processing unit when operating in an associated mode of operation. The processing unit is switchable between a plurality of contexts, the data values stored in the plurality of registers being dependent on a current context of the processing unit. The processing unit performs a switch operation to switch from the current context to a new context, during which the data values in the registers are updated having regard to the new context. A control register is provided which, for at least one mode of operation having at least one mode specific register associated therewith, has an access field which is programmable by the processing unit when operating in a predetermined mode of operation. When the access field is set, the processing unit is selectively denied access to the associated at least one mode specific register, whereby updating of the data values in the associated at least one mode specific register is avoided during the switch operation. This significantly increases the speed of the switch operation.

摘要： In a system supporting more than one operating system, a data processing thread executing on a first operating system may be subject to an interrupt which triggers interrupt handling on a second operating system. When that interrupt handling is completed on the second operating system, the first operating system is resumed using a return interrupt. The return interrupt specifies the data processing thread which is active on the second operating system such that an appropriate task switch or resumption may be made on the first operating system. The technique is particularly well suited to systems utilising a secure operating system and a non-secure operating system executing on the same hardware.
摘要翻译：在支持多个操作系统的系统中，在第一操作系统上执行的数据处理线程可能受到在第二操作系统上触发中断处理的中断。当在第二操作系统上完成该中断处理时，使用返回中断恢复第一操作系统。返回中断指定在第二操作系统上活动的数据处理线程，使得可以在第一操作系统上进行适当的任务切换或恢复。该技术特别适用于利用在相同硬件上执行的安全操作系统和非安全操作系统的系统。
