DBGDSAR: Debug Self Address Register

Purpose

In earlier versions of the Arm Architecture, this register defines the offset from the base address defined in DBGDRAR of the physical base address of the debug registers for the PE. Armv8 deprecates any use of this register.

Configuration

This register is present only when AArch32 is supported. Otherwise, direct accesses to DBGDSAR are UNDEFINED.

DBGDSAR is a 64-bit register that can also be accessed as a 32-bit value. If it is accessed as a 32-bit register, bits [31:0] are read.

If EL1 cannot use AArch32 then the implementation of this register is OPTIONAL and deprecated.

Attributes

DBGDSAR is a 64-bit register.

Bits [63:2]

Reserved, RES0.

Bits [1:0]

Reserved, RAZ.

This field indicates whether the debug self address offset is valid. For ARMv8, this field is always 0b00, the offset is not valid.

Accessing DBGDSAR

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

MRC{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
