PMCNTENSET, Performance Monitors Count Enable Set register
The PMCNTENSET characteristics are:
Purpose
Enables the Cycle Count Register, PMCCNTR, and any implemented event counters PMEVCNTR<n>. Reading this register shows which counters are enabled.
PMCNTENSET is used in conjunction with the PMCNTENCLR register.
Configuration
AArch32 System register PMCNTENSET bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register PMCNTENSET_EL0[31:0] .
AArch32 System register PMCNTENSET bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register PMCNTENSET_EL0[31:0] .
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
PMCNTENSET is a 32-bit register.
Field descriptions
The PMCNTENSET 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 |
| C | P<n>, bit [n] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
C, bit [31]
PMCCNTR enable bit. Enables the cycle counter register. Possible values are:
| C | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
When read, means the cycle counter is disabled. When written, has no effect. |
| 0b1 |
When read, means the cycle counter is enabled. When written, enables the cycle counter. |
On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
P<n>, bit [n], for n = 0 to 30
Event counter enable bit for PMEVCNTR<n>.
If N is less than 31, then bits [30:N] are RAZ/WI. When EL2 is implemented and enabled in the current Security state, in EL1 and EL0, N is the value in MDCR_EL2.HPMN if EL2 is using AArch64, or in HDCR.HPMN if EL2 is using AArch32. Otherwise, N is the value in PMCR.N.
| P<n> | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
When read, means that PMEVCNTR<n> is disabled. When written, has no effect. |
| 0b1 |
When read, means that PMEVCNTR<n> event counter is enabled. When written, enables PMEVCNTR<n>. |
On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
