DBGBXVR<n>: Debug Breakpoint Extended Value Registers, n = 0 - 15

Purpose

Holds a value for use in breakpoint matching, to support VMID matching. Used in conjunction with a control register DBGBCR<n> and a value register DBGBVR<n>, where EL2 is implemented and breakpoint n supports Context matching.

Configuration

AArch32 System register DBGBXVR<n> bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register DBGBVR<n>_EL1[63:32].

AArch32 System register DBGBXVR<n> bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register DBGBVR<n>_EL1[63:32].

This register is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to DBGBXVR<n> are UNDEFINED.

How this register is interpreted depends on the value of DBGBCR<n>.BT.

For other values of DBGBCR<n>.BT, this register is RES0.

Accesses to this register are UNDEFINED in any of the following cases:

For more information, see the description of the DBGDIDR.CTX_CMPs field.

Attributes

DBGBXVR<n> is a 32-bit register.

Otherwise:

Reserved, RES0.

Accessing DBGBXVR<n>

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