PMINTENCLR_EL1, Performance Monitors Interrupt Enable Clear register

The PMINTENCLR_EL1 characteristics are:

Purpose

Disables the generation of interrupt requests on overflows from the Cycle Count Register, PMCCNTR_EL0, and the event counters PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0. Reading the register shows which overflow interrupt requests are enabled.

This register is part of the Performance Monitors registers functional group.

Configuration

AArch64 System register PMINTENCLR_EL1 is architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register PMINTENCLR.

AArch64 System register PMINTENCLR_EL1 is architecturally mapped to External register PMINTENCLR_EL1.

This register is in the Warm reset domain. On a Warm or Cold reset RW fields in this register reset to architecturally UNKNOWN values.

Attributes

PMINTENCLR_EL1 is a 32-bit register.

Field descriptions

The PMINTENCLR_EL1 bit assignments are:

313029282726252423222120191817161514131211109876543210
CP<n>, bit [n]

C, bit [31]

PMCCNTR_EL0 overflow interrupt request disable bit. Possible values are:

CMeaning
0

When read, means the cycle counter overflow interrupt request is disabled. When written, has no effect.

1

When read, means the cycle counter overflow interrupt request is enabled. When written, disables the cycle count overflow interrupt request.

P<n>, bit [n], for n = 0 to 30

Event counter overflow interrupt request disable bit for PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0.

When EL2 is implemented, in Non-secure EL1 and EL0, N is the value in MDCR_EL2.HPMN. Otherwise, N is the value in PMCR_EL0.N.

Bits [30:N] are RAZ/WI.

Possible values are:

P<n>Meaning
0

When read, means that the PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 event counter interrupt request is disabled. When written, has no effect.

1

When read, means that the PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 event counter interrupt request is enabled. When written, disables the PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 interrupt request.

Accessing the PMINTENCLR_EL1

This register can be read using MRS with the following syntax:

MRS <Xt>, <systemreg>

This register can be written using MSR (register) with the following syntax:

MSR <systemreg>, <Xt>

This syntax uses the following encoding in the System instruction encoding space:

<systemreg> op0op1CRnCRmop2

This table applies to all instructions that can access this register.

Traps and enables

For a description of the prioritization of any generated exceptions, see section D1.13.2 (Synchronous exception prioritization) in the ARM® Architecture Reference Manual, ARMv8, for ARMv8-A architecture profile. Subject to the prioritization rules, the following traps and enables are applicable when accessing this register.
