The ID_MMFR0 characteristics are:
Provides information about the implemented memory model and memory management support in AArch32 state.
For general information about the interpretation of the ID registers see 'Principles of the ID scheme for fields in ID registers'.
AArch32 System register ID_MMFR0 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register ID_MMFR0_EL1[31:0].
This register is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to ID_MMFR0 are UNDEFINED.
ID_MMFR0 is a 32-bit register.

Innermost Shareability. Indicates the innermost shareability domain implemented. Defined values are:
InnerShr | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0000 |
Implemented as Non-cacheable. |
0b0001 |
Implemented with hardware coherency support. |
0b1111 |
Shareability ignored. |
All other values are reserved.
In Armv8-A, the permitted values are 0b0000, 0b0001, and 0b1111.
This field is valid only if the implementation supports two levels of shareability, as indicated by ID_MMFR0.ShareLvl having the value 0b0001.
When ID_MMFR0.ShareLvl is zero, this field is UNKNOWN.
