The PMCCNTR_EL0 characteristics are:
Holds the value of the processor Cycle Counter, CCNT, that counts processor clock cycles. See 'Time as measured by the Performance Monitors cycle counter' for more information.
PMCCFILTR_EL0 determines the modes and states in which the PMCCNTR_EL0 can increment.
AArch64 System register PMCCNTR_EL0 bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register PMCCNTR[63:0].
AArch64 System register PMCCNTR_EL0 bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to External register PMCCNTR_EL0[63:0].
This register is present only when FEAT_PMUv3 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to PMCCNTR_EL0 are UNDEFINED.
All counters are subject to any changes in clock frequency, including clock stopping caused by the WFI and WFE instructions. This means that it is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE whether or not PMCCNTR_EL0 continues to increment when clocks are stopped by WFI and WFE instructions.
PMCCNTR_EL0 is a 64-bit register.

Cycle count. Depending on the values of PMCR_EL0.{LC,D}, this field increments in one of the following ways:
Writing 1 to PMCR_EL0.C sets this field to 0.
The reset behavior of this field is:
