PMSELR, Performance Monitors Event Counter Selection Register
The PMSELR characteristics are:
Purpose
Selects the current event counter PMEVCNTR<n> or the cycle counter, CCNT.
PMSELR is used in conjunction with PMXEVTYPER to determine the event that increments a selected event counter, and the modes and states in which the selected counter increments.
It is also used in conjunction with PMXEVCNTR, to determine the value of a selected event counter.
Configuration
AArch32 System register PMSELR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register PMSELR_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
PMSELR is a 32-bit register.
Field descriptions
The PMSELR 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 |
0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | SEL |
Bits [31:5]
Reserved, RES0.
SEL, bits [4:0]
Selects event counter, PMEVCNTR<n>, where n is the value held in this field. This value identifies which event counter is accessed when a subsequent access to PMXEVTYPER or PMXEVCNTR occurs.
This field can take any value from 0 (0b00000) to (PMCR.N)-1, or 31 (0b11111).
When PMSELR.SEL is 0b11111, it selects the cycle counter and:
- A read of the PMXEVTYPER returns the value of PMCCFILTR.
- A write of the PMXEVTYPER writes to PMCCFILTR.
- A read or write of PMXEVCNTR has CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE effects, that can be one of the following:
If this field is set to a value greater than or equal to the number of implemented counters, but not equal to 31:
- Direct reads of this field return an UNKNOWN value.
- The results of access to PMXEVTYPER or PMXEVCNTR are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE, and can be one of the following:
- Access to PMXEVTYPER or PMXEVCNTR is UNDEFINED.
- Access to PMXEVTYPER or PMXEVCNTR behaves as a NOP.
- Access to PMXEVTYPER or PMXEVCNTR behaves as if the register is RAZ/WI.
- Access to PMXEVTYPER or PMXEVCNTR behaves as if the PMSELR.SEL field contains an UNKNOWN value.
- Access to PMXEVTYPER behaves as if the PMSELR.SEL field contains 0b11111.
On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
Accessing the PMSELR
Accesses to this register use the following encodings:
