TRCSSCCR<n>

This is a collection of Intel®’ IA32® Software Developer's Manuals (URL of the day) and AMD' AMD64 Architecture Programmer's Manual together with the related specifications, application notes, white papers, and change logs. The collection aims to keep all available revisions. It was originally created by Michal Necasek, see OS/2 Museum.

If you have a public document, related to the IA32® specifications and missing from the collection, please mail it to me. The content of this URL and all sub-ULRs is available for convenient bulk download by rsync x86docs password "" (empty).

TRCSSCCR<n>, Trace Single-shot Comparator Control Register <n>, n = 0 - 7

Purpose

Configuration

External register TRCSSCCR<n> bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register TRCSSCCR<n>[31:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_ETE is implemented, FEAT_TRC_EXT is implemented, and UInt(TRCIDR4.NUMSSCC) > n. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRCSSCCR<n> are RES0.

Attributes

Field descriptions

Bits [31:25]

RST, bit [24]

Selects the Single-shot Comparator Control mode.

RST	Meaning
0b0	The Single-shot Comparator Control is in single-shot mode.
0b1	The Single-shot Comparator Control is in multi-shot mode.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Trace unit reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

ARC[<m>], bit [m+16], for m = 7 to 0

Selects one or more Address Range Comparators for Single-shot control.

ARC[<m>]	Meaning
0b0	The Address Range Comparator <m>, is not selected for Single-shot control.
0b1	The Address Range Comparator <m>, is selected for Single-shot control.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Trace unit reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

Accessing this field has the following behavior:

When m >= UInt(TRCIDR4.NUMACPAIRS), access to this field is RES0 .
Otherwise, access to this field is RW.

SAC[<m>], bit [m], for m = 15 to 0

Selects one or more Single Address Comparators for Single-shot control.

SAC[<m>]	Meaning
0b0	The Single Address Comparator <m>, is not selected for Single-shot control.
0b1	The Single Address Comparator <m>, is selected for Single-shot control.

The reset behavior of this field is:

On a Trace unit reset, this field resets to an architecturally UNKNOWN value.

Accessing this field has the following behavior:

When m >= UInt(TRCIDR4.NUMACPAIRS) * 2, access to this field is RES0 .
Otherwise, access to this field is RW.

Accessing TRCSSCCR<n>

Writes are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE if the trace unit is not in the Idle state.

TRCSSCCR<n> can be accessed through the external debug interface:
