The PMCEID3 characteristics are:
Defines which common architectural events and common microarchitectural events are implemented, or counted, using PMU events in the range 0x4020 to 0x403F.
When the value of a bit in the register is 1 the corresponding common event is implemented and counted.
Arm recommends that, if a common event is never counted, the value of the corresponding register bit is 0.
For more information about the common events and the use of the PMCEIDn registers see The section describing 'Event numbers and common events' in chapter D5 'The Performance Monitors Extension' of the Arm Architecture Reference Manual, for Armv8-A architecture profile.
External register PMCEID3 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register PMCEID1_EL0[63:32] .
External register PMCEID3 bits [63:32] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register PMCEID3[31:0] .
PMCEID3 is in the Core power domain.
This register is present only from Armv8.1. Otherwise, direct accesses to PMCEID3 are RES0.
PMCEID3 is a 32-bit register.
The PMCEID3 bit assignments are:
31 | 30 | 29 | 28 | 27 | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
IDhi<n>, bit [n] |
IDhi[n] corresponds to common event (0x4020 + n).
For each bit:
IDhi<n> | Meaning |
---|---|
0b0 |
The common event is not implemented, or not counted. |
0b1 |
The common event is implemented. |
A bit that corresponds to a reserved event number is reserved. The value might be used in a future revision of the architecture to identify an additional common event.
Such an event might be added retrospectively to an earlier version of the PMU architecture, provided the event does not require any additional PMU features and has an event number that can be represented in the PMCEID<n> registers of that earlier version of the PMU architecture.
Reserved, RES0.
AllowExternalPMUAccess() has a new definition from Armv8.4. Refer to the Pseudocode definitions for more information.
