AMCNTENSET1, Activity Monitors Count Enable Set Register 1

The AMCNTENSET1 characteristics are:

Purpose

Enable control bits for the auxiliary activity monitors event counters, AMEVCNTR1<n>.

Configuration

AArch32 System register AMCNTENSET1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register AMCNTENSET1_EL0[31:0].

AArch32 System register AMCNTENSET1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register AMCNTENSET1[31:0].

AArch32 System register AMCNTENSET1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register AMCNTENCLR1[31:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_AMUv1 is implemented and FEAT_AA32 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to AMCNTENSET1 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

AMCNTENSET1 is a 32-bit register.

Bits [31:16]

Reserved, RES0.

P<n>, bit [n], for n = 15 to 0

Activity monitor event counter enable bit for AMEVCNTR1<n>.

Possible values of each bit are:

P<n>Meaning
0b0

When read, means that AMEVCNTR1<n> is disabled. When written, has no effect.

0b1

When read, means that AMEVCNTR1<n> is enabled. When written, enables AMEVCNTR1<n>.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing this field has the following behavior:

Accessing AMCNTENSET1

If there are no auxiliary monitor event counters implemented, reads and writes of AMCNTENSET1 are UNDEFINED.

Note

There are no implemented auxiliary activity monitor event counters when AMCFGR.NCG == 0b0000.

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