7.2.2 Register 1: Control and Auxiliary Control Registers
Register 1 is made up of two registers, one that is compliant with ARM Version 5 and is referenced
by opcode_2 = 0x0, and the other which is specific to Intel
®
StrongARM* and is referenced by
opcode_2 = 0x1.
The Exception Vector Relocation bit (bit 13 of the ARM control register) allows the vectors to be
mapped into high memory rather than their default location at address 0. This bit is readable and
writable by software. If the MMU is enabled, the exception vectors are accessed via the usual
translation method involving the PID register (see Section 7.2.13, “Register 13: Process ID” on
page 7-16) and the TLBs. To avoid automatic application of the PID to exception vector accesses,
software may relocate the exceptions to high memory.
