TRCVMIDCVR<n>, Trace Virtual Context Identifier Comparator Value Register <n>, n = 0 - 7

The TRCVMIDCVR<n> characteristics are:

Purpose

Contains the Virtual Context Identifier Comparator value.

Configuration

External register TRCVMIDCVR<n> bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register TRCVMIDCVR<n>[63:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_ETE is implemented, FEAT_TRC_EXT is implemented and UInt(TRCIDR4.NUMVMIDC) > n. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRCVMIDCVR<n> are RES0.

Attributes

TRCVMIDCVR<n> is a 64-bit register.

VALUE
VALUE

VALUE, bits [63:0]

Virtual context identifier value. The width of this field is indicated by TRCIDR2.VMIDSIZE. Unimplemented bits are RES0. After a PE Reset, the trace unit assumes that the Virtual context identifier is zero until the PE updates the Virtual context identifier .

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Trace unit reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

Accessing TRCVMIDCVR<n>

Must be programmed if any of the following are true:

TRCRSCTLR<a>.GROUP == 0b0111 and TRCRSCTLR<a>.VMID[n] == 1.
TRCACATR<a>.CONTEXTTYPE == 0b10 or 0b11 and TRCACATR<a>.CONTEXT == n.

TRCVMIDCVR<n> can be accessed through the external debug interface:

Component	Offset	Instance
ETE	0x640 + (8 * n)	TRCVMIDCVR<n>

This interface is accessible as follows:

When OSLockStatus(), or !AllowExternalTraceAccess() or !IsTraceCorePowered(), accesses to this register generate an error response.
Otherwise, accesses to this register are RW.
