Control and Status Registers

CV32E40P does not implement all control and status registers specified in the RISC-V privileged specifications, but is limited to the registers that were needed for the PULP system. The reason for this is that we wanted to keep the footprint of the core as low as possible and avoid any overhead that we do not explicitly need.

CSR Map

Table 57 lists all implemented CSRs. Two columns in Table 57 may require additional explanation:

The Privilege column indicates the access mode of a CSR. The first letter indicates the lowest privilege level required to access the CSR. Attempts to access a CSR with a higher privilege level than the core is currently running in will throw an illegal instruction exception. This is largely a moot point for the CV32E40P as it only supports machine and debug modes. The remaining letters indicate the read and/or write behavior of the CSR when accessed by the indicated or higher privilge level:

• RW: CSR is read-write. That is, CSR instructions (e.g. csrrw) may write any value and that value will be returned on a subsequent read (unless a side-effect causes the core to change the CSR value).

• RO: CSR is read-only. Writes by CSR instructions raise an illegal instruction exception.

Writes of a non-supported value to WLRL bitfields of a RW CSR do not result in an illegal instruction exception. The exact bitfield access types, e.g. WLRL or WARL, can be found in the RISC-V privileged specification.

In the Description column there is a specific comment which identifies those CSRs that are dependent on the value of specific parameters. If these parameters are not set as indicated in Table 57 then the associated CSR is not implemented. If the column does not mention any parameter then the associated CSR is always implemented.

Reads or writes to a CSR that is not implemented will result in an illegal instruction exception.

CSR Descriptions

What follows is a detailed definition of each of the CSRs listed above. The Mode column defines the access mode behavior of each bit field when accessed by the privilege level specified in Table 57 (or a higher privilege level):

• RO: read-only fields are not affect by CSR write instructions. Such fields either return a fixed value, or a value determined by the operation of the core.

• RW: read/write fields store the value written by CSR writes. Subsequent reads return either the previously written value or a value determined by the operation of the core.

Machine Trap-Vector Base Address (mtvec)

CSR Address: 0x305

Reset Value: Defined

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31 : 8	RW	BASE[31:8] The trap-handler base address, always aligned to 256 bytes.

The initial value of mtvec is equal to {mtvec_addr_i[31:8], 6’b0, 2’b01}.

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:1	RW	MEPC: Machine Exception Program Counter
0	R0	0

When an exception is encountered, the current program counter is saved in MEPC, and the core jumps to the exception address. When a mret instruction is executed, the value from MEPC replaces the current program counter.

Reset Value: 0x2800_1040

Detailed:

Accessible in Debug Mode or M-Mode. Since native triggers are not supported, writes to this register from M-Mode will be ignored.

Note

CV32E40P only implements one type of trigger, Match Control. Most fields of this register will read as a fixed value to reflect the single mode that is supported, in particular, instruction address match as described in the Debug Specification 0.13.2 section 5.2.2 & 5.2.9. The type, dmode, hit, select, timing, sizelo, action, chain, match, m, s, u, store and load bitfields of this CSR, which are marked as R/W in Debug Specification 0.13.2, are therefore implemented as WARL bitfields (corresponding to how these bitfields will be specified in the forthcoming Debug Specification 0.14.0).

6	RO (0x1)	m: 1 = Match in M-Mode.
5	RO (0x0)	zero.
4	RO (0x0)	s: 0 = S-Mode not supported.
3	RO (0x0)	u: 0 = U-Mode not supported.

Reset Value: 0x0000_0000

Accessible in Debug Mode or M-Mode.

Machine Context register (mcontext)

CSR Address: 0x7A8

Reset Value: 0x0000_0000

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description

Note

The ebreaks, ebreaku and prv bitfields of this CSR are marked as R/W in Debug Specification 0.13.2.

Reset Value: 0x0000_0602

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:7	RO	0xC. Number of continuation codes in JEDEC manufacturer ID.
6:0	RO	0x2. Final byte of JEDEC manufacturer ID, discarding the parity bit.

The mvendorid encodes the OpenHW JEDEC Manufacturer ID, which is 2 decimal (bank 13).

Machine Architecture ID (marchid)

CSR Address: 0xF12

Reset Value: 0x0000_0004

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:0	RO	Machine Architecture ID of CV32E40P is 4

Machine Implementation ID (mimpid)

CSR Address: 0xF13

Reset Value: Defined

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31 : 1	RO	0
0	RO	1 if FPU = 1 or COREV_PULP = 1 or COREV_CLUSTER = 1 else 0.

Hardware Thread ID (mhartid)

CSR Address: 0xF14

Reset Value: Defined

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:0	RO	Hardware Thread ID hart_id_i, see Core Integration

Non-RISC-V CSRs

User Hardware Thread ID (uhartid)

CSR Address: 0xCD0 (only present if COREV_PULP = 1)

Reset Value: Defined

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:0	RO	Hardware Thread ID hart_id_i, see Core Integration

Similar to mhartid the uhartid provides the Hardware Thread ID. It differs from mhartid only in the required privilege level. On CV32E40P, as it is a machine mode only implementation, this difference is not noticeable.

Privilege Level (privlv)

CSR Address: 0xCD1 (only present if COREV_PULP = 1)

Reset Value: 0x0000_0003

Detailed:

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:2	RO	Reads as 0.
1:0	RO	Current Privilege Level 00 = User 01 = Supervisor 10 = Hypervisor 11 = Machine CV32E40P only supports Machine mode.

ZFINX ISA (zfinx)

CSR Address: 0xCD2 (only present if COREV_PULP = 1 & (FPU = 0 | (FPU = 1 & ZFINX = 1)) )

Reset Value: Defined

Bit #	Mode	Description
31:1	RO	0
0	RO	1 if FPU = 1 and ZFINX = 1 else 0.
