PALcode Exception Entry Points | Compaq EV68A specification

PALcode Entry Points

Each CALL_PAL instruction includes a function field that is used to calculate the PC of its associated PALcode entry point. The PALcode OPCDEC exception flow will be invoked if the CALL_PAL function field satisfies any of the following requirements:

•Is in the range of 4016 to 7F16 inclusive

•Is greater than BF16

•Is between 0016 and 3F16 inclusive, and IER_CM[CM] is not equal to the kernel mode value 0

If none of the conditions above are met, the PALcode entry point PC is as follows:

•PC[63:15] = PAL_BASE[63:15]

•PC[14] = 0

•PC[13] = 1

•PC[12] = CALL_PAL function field [7]

•PC[11:6] = CALL_PAL function field [5:0]

•PC[5:1] = 0

•PC[0] = 1 (PALmode)

6.8.2PALcode Exception Entry Points

When hardware encounters an exception, Ibox execution jumps to a PALcode entry point at a PC determined by the type of exception. The return PC of the instruction that triggered the exception is placed in the EXC_ADDR register and onto the return predic- tion stack.

Table 6–8shows the PALcode exception entry locations and their offset from the

PAL_BASE IPR.

Table 6–8 PALcode Exception Entry Locations

Entry Name	Type	Offset16	Description

			level flow.
FEN	Fault	200	Floating point disabled.
UNALIGN	Fault	280	Unaligned Dstream reference.
DTBM_SINGLE	Fault	300	Dstream TB miss.
DFAULT	Fault	380	Dstream fault or virtual address sign check error.

			• Opcode 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 or 7
			• Opcode 19 16, 1B16, 1D16, 1E16 or 1F16 , not PALmode or
			not I_CTL[HWE]
			• Extended precision IEEE format
			• Unimplemented function field of opcodes 14 16 or 1C16
IACV	Fault	480	Istream access violation or virtual address sign check error.
