Figure 4-15 Memory Model Feature Register 0 format
Table4-10 shows how the bit values correspond with the Memory Model Feature Register 0
functions.
To access the Memory Model Feature Register 0 read CP15 with:
MRC p15, 0, <Rd>, c0, c1, 4 ; Read Memory Model Feature Register 0.
c0, Memory Model Feature Register 1, MMFR1
The Memory Model Feature Register 1 provides information about the memory model, memory
management, and cache support of the processor.
The Memory Model Feature Register 1 is:
• a read-only register
• accessible in Privileged mode only.
Figure 4-16 on page 4-23 shows the bit arrangement for Memory Model Feature Register 1.
