BFC0_0000H
(BEV bit is automatically set to 1)
0000H
TLB Refill (EXL = 0) 0000H
XTLB Refill (EXL = 0) 0080H
Other exceptions
8000_0000H (BEV = 0)
BFC0_0200H (BEV = 1)
0180H
(1) TLB refill exception vector
When BEV bit = 0, the vector base address (virtual) for the TLB Refill exception is in kseg0 (unmapped) space.
8000_0000H in 32-bit mode
FFFF_FFFF_8000_0000H in 64-bit mode
When BEV bit = 1, the vector base address (virtual) for the TLB Refill exception is in kseg1 (uncached, unmapped)
space.
BFC0_0200H in 32-bit mode
FFFF_FFFF_BFC0_0200H in 64-bit mode
This is an uncached, non-TLB-mapped space, allowing the exception handler to bypass the cache and TLB.
