PMPIDR4

PMPIDR4, Performance Monitors Peripheral Identification Register 4

The PMPIDR4 characteristics are:

Purpose

Provides information to identify a Performance Monitor component.

For more information, see 'About the Peripheral identification scheme'.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_PMUv3_EXT is implemented and an implementation implements PMPIDR4. Otherwise, direct accesses to PMPIDR4 are RES0.

If FEAT_DoPD is implemented, this register is in the Core power domain. If FEAT_DoPD is not implemented, this register is in the Debug power domain.

This register is required for CoreSight compliance.

Attributes

PMPIDR4 is a 32-bit register.

This register is part of the PMU block.

RES0SIZEDES_2

Bits [31:8]

Reserved, RES0.

SIZE, bits [7:4]

Size of the component. Log2 of the number of 4KB pages from the start of the component to the end of the component ID registers.

Reads as 0b0000.

Access to this field is RO.

DES_2, bits [3:0]

Designer, JEP106 continuation code.

The JEP106 identification and continuation codes are stored as follows:

These codes indicate the designer of the component and not the implementer, except where the two are the same. To obtain a number, or to see the assignment of these codes, contact JEDEC http://www.jedec.org.

A JEP106 identification and continuation code takes the following form:

The parity bit in the JEP106 identification code is not included.

Note

For example, Arm Limited is assigned the code 0x7F 0x7F 0x7F 0x7F 0x3B.

This field has an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED value.

Access to this field is RO.
