TRCCCCTLR, Cycle Count Control Register

The TRCCCCTLR characteristics are:

Purpose

Set the threshold value for cycle counting.

Configuration

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

This register is present only when FEAT_ETE is implemented and TRCIDR0.TRCCCI == 1. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRCCCCTLR are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

TRCCCCTLR is a 64-bit register.

THRESHOLD, bits [11:0]

Sets the threshold value for instruction trace cycle counting.

The minimum threshold value that can be programmed into THRESHOLD is given in TRCIDR3.CCITMIN. If the THRESHOLD value is smaller than the value in TRCIDR3.CCITMIN then the behavior is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE. That is, cycle counts might or might not be included in the trace and the cycle count threshold is not known.

Writing a value of zero when TRCCONFIGR.CCI enables instruction trace cycle counting results in CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE behavior. That is, cycle counts might or might not be included in the trace and the cycle count threshold is not known.

The reset behaviour of this field is:

Accessing TRCCCCTLR

Must be programmed if TRCCONFIGR.CCI == 1.

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

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
