SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0

SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0, System Performance Monitors Event Filter Control Register, n = 0 - 63

The SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0 characteristics are:

Purpose

With SPMEVTYPER<n>_EL0 and SPMEVFILT2R<n>_EL0, configures when event counter SPMEVCNTR<n>_EL0 in System PMU <s> increments.

The contents of this register are IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED. For more information, see SPMEVTYPER<n>_EL0.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_SPMU is implemented and FEAT_AA64 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0 is a 64-bit register.

Accessing SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0

To access SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0 for System PMU <s>, set SPMSELR_EL0.SYSPMUSEL to s and SPMSELR_EL0.BANK to n[5:4].

SPMEVFILTR<n>_EL0 reads-as-zero and ignores writes if any of the following are true:

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