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.
Configuration
External register PMINTENCLR_EL1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register PMINTENCLR_EL1[31:0] .
External register PMINTENCLR_EL1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register PMINTENCLR[31:0] .
PMINTENCLR_EL1 is in the Core power domain.
Attributes
PMINTENCLR_EL1 is a 32-bit register.
Field descriptions
The PMINTENCLR_EL1 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 | P30 | P29 | P28 | P27 | P26 | P25 | P24 | P23 | P22 | P21 | P20 | P19 | P18 | P17 | P16 | P15 | P14 | P13 | P12 | P11 | P10 | P9 | P8 | P7 | P6 | P5 | P4 | P3 | P2 | P1 | P0 |
C, bit [31]
PMCCNTR_EL0 overflow interrupt request disable bit. Possible values are:
| C | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
When read, means the cycle counter overflow interrupt request is disabled. When written, has no effect. |
| 0b1 |
When read, means the cycle counter overflow interrupt request is enabled. When written, disables the cycle count overflow interrupt request. |
On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
P<n>, bit [n], for n = 30 to 0
Event counter overflow interrupt request disable bit for PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0.
If PMCFGR.N is less than 31, bits [30:PMCFGR.N] are RAZ/WI.
| P<n> | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
When read, means that the PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 event counter interrupt request is disabled. When written, has no effect. |
| 0b1 |
When read, means that the PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 event counter interrupt request is enabled. When written, disables the PMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 interrupt request. |
On a Warm reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.
Accessing the PMINTENCLR_EL1
SoftwareLockStatus() depends on the type of access attempted and AllowExternalPMUAccess() has a new definition from Armv8.4. Refer to the Pseudocode definitions for more information.
PMINTENCLR_EL1 can be accessed through the external debug interface:
| Component | Offset | Instance |
|---|---|---|
| PMU | 0xC60 | PMINTENCLR_EL1 |
This interface is accessible as follows:
- When IsCorePowered(), !DoubleLockStatus(), !OSLockStatus(), AllowExternalPMUAccess() and SoftwareLockStatus() accesses to this register are RO.
- When IsCorePowered(), !DoubleLockStatus(), !OSLockStatus(), AllowExternalPMUAccess() and !SoftwareLockStatus() accesses to this register are RW.
- Otherwise accesses to this register generate an error response.
