The PMBPTR_EL1 characteristics are:
Defines the current write pointer for the profiling buffer.
This register is present only when FEAT_SPE is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to PMBPTR_EL1 are UNDEFINED.
PMBPTR_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

PTR |
Current write address. Defines the virtual address of the next entry to be written to the buffer.
The architecture places restrictions on the values software can write to the pointer. For more information see 'Restrictions on the current write pointer'.
As a result, an implementation might treat some of bits[M:0], where M is defined by PMBIDR_EL1.Align, as RES0.
On a management interrupt, PMBPTR_EL1 is frozen.
The reset behavior of this field is:
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
