TRCVMIDCCTLR0, Trace Virtual Context Identifier Comparator Control Register 0

The TRCVMIDCCTLR0 characteristics are:

Purpose

Virtual Context Identifier Comparator mask values for the TRCVMIDCVR<n> registers, where n=0-3.

Configuration

External register TRCVMIDCCTLR0 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register TRCVMIDCCTLR0[31:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_ETE is implemented, FEAT_TRC_EXT is implemented, UInt(TRCIDR4.NUMVMIDC) > 0x0 and UInt(TRCIDR2.VMIDSIZE) > 0. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRCVMIDCCTLR0 are RES0.

Attributes

TRCVMIDCCTLR0 is a 32-bit register.

When UInt(TRCIDR4.NUMVMIDC) > 3:

TRCVMIDCVR3 mask control. Specifies the mask value that the trace unit applies to TRCVMIDCVR3. Each bit in this field corresponds to a byte in TRCVMIDCVR3.

COMP3[<m>]Meaning
0b0

The trace unit includes TRCVMIDCVR3[(m×8+7):(m×8)] when it performs the Virtual context identifier comparison.

0b1

The trace unit ignores TRCVMIDCVR3[(m×8+7):(m×8)] when it performs the Virtual context identifier comparison.

Accessing TRCVMIDCCTLR0

If software uses the TRCVMIDCVR<n> registers, where n=0-3, then it must program this register.

If software sets a mask bit to 1 then it must program the relevant byte in TRCVMIDCVR<n> to 0x00.

If any bit is 1 and the relevant byte in TRCVMIDCVR<n> is not 0x00, the behavior of the Virtual Context Identifier Comparator is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE. In this scenario the comparator might match unexpectedly or might not match.

Writes are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE if the trace unit is not in the Idle state.

TRCVMIDCCTLR0 can be accessed through the external debug interface:
