DBGOSLAR, Debug OS Lock Access Register

The DBGOSLAR characteristics are:

Purpose

Provides a lock for the debug registers. The OS Lock also disables some debug exceptions and debug events.

Configuration

This register is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to DBGOSLAR are UNDEFINED.

The OS lock can also be locked or unlocked using the AArch64 System register OSLAR_EL1 and External register OSLAR_EL1.

Attributes

DBGOSLAR is a 32-bit register.

Field descriptions

The DBGOSLAR bit assignments are:

313029282726252423222120191817161514131211109876543210
OSLA

OSLA, bits [31:0]

OS Lock Access. Writing the value 0xC5ACCE55 to the DBGOSLAR sets the OS lock to 1. Writing any other value sets the OS lock to 0.

Use DBGOSLSR.OSLK to check the current status of the lock.

Accessing the DBGOSLAR

Accesses to this register use the following encodings:

MCR{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
