DBGOSECCR

DBGOSECCR, Debug OS Lock Exception Catch Control Register

The DBGOSECCR characteristics are:

Purpose

Provides a mechanism for an operating system to access the contents of EDECCR that are otherwise invisible to software, so it can save/restore the contents of EDECCR over powerdown on behalf of the external debugger.

Configuration

AArch32 System register DBGOSECCR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register OSECCR_EL1[31:0].

AArch32 System register DBGOSECCR bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register EDECCR[31:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_AA32EL1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to DBGOSECCR are UNDEFINED.

If DBGOSLSR.OSLK == 0 then DBGOSECCR returns an UNKNOWN value on reads and ignores writes.

Attributes

DBGOSECCR is a 32-bit register.

Field descriptions

When DBGOSLSR.OSLK == 1:

EDECCR

EDECCR, bits [31:0]

Used for save/restore to EDECCR over powerdown.

Reads or writes to this field are indirect accesses to EDECCR.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing DBGOSECCR

Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:

MRC{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
