11.7.4.2.3 Interruption Control Register Write Optimization
The interruption control register write optimization is enabled by the a_to_int_cr bit in
the Virtualization Acceleration Control (
vac
) field in the VPD. When this optimization is
enabled, and vpsr.ic is 0, software running with PSR.vm==1 will be able to write the
virtual interruption control registers (vipsr, visr, viip, vifa, vitir, viipa, vifs, viim, viha,
viib0-1) without any intercepts to the VMM, unless a fault condition is detected (see
for details).
If this optimization is disabled, a write of the interruption control registers with
PSR.vm==1 results in a virtualization intercept.
Synchronization is required when this optimization is enabled, see
for
details.
When this optimization is enabled, certain VPD state is accessed, as described in
Table 11-16, “Virtual Processor Descriptor (VPD)” on page 2:326
11.7.4.2.4 MOV-from-PSR Optimization
The MOV-from-PSR optimization is enabled by the a_from_psr bit in the Virtualization
Acceleration Control (
vac
) field in the VPD. When this optimization is enabled, software
running with PSR.vm==1 will be able to execute MOV-from-PSR instructions to read

Optimization is Enabled
Instructions
Interruptions
Move from interruption control registers
When the interruption control register read optimization is enabled,
reads of interruption control registers with PSR.vm==1, may raise
the following faults:
• Illegal Operation fault – if vpsr.ic is not zero or the target
operand specifies GR 0 or an out-of-frame stacked register
• Privileged Operation fault – if vpsr.cpl is not zero

Optimization is Enabled
Instructions
Interruptions
Move to interruption control registers
When the interruption control register write optimization is enabled,
writes to interruption control registers with PSR.vm==1, may raise
the following faults:
• Illegal Operation fault – if vpsr.ic is not zero
• Privileged Operation fault – if vpsr.cpl is not zero
• Register NaT Consumption fault – if the NaT bit of the source
operand is one
• Reserved Register/Field fault – if any reserved field in the
specified control register is written with a non-zero value
• Unimplemented Data Address fault – if writing to vifa and an
unimplemented virtual address is specified
