PMCEID2: Performance Monitors Common Event Identification register 2

Purpose

Defines which Common architectural events and Common microarchitectural events are implemented, or counted, using PMU events in the range 0x4000 to 0x401F.

For more information about the Common events and the use of the PMCEIDn registers see 'The PMU event number space and common events'.

Configuration

AArch32 System register PMCEID2 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register PMCEID0_EL0[63:32].

AArch32 System register PMCEID2 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register PMU.PMCEID2[31:0].

This register is present only when AArch32 is supported and FEAT_PMUv3p1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to PMCEID2 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

PMCEID2 is a 32-bit register.

IDhi<n>, bit [n], for n = 31 to 0

IDhi[n] corresponds to Common event (0x4000 + n).

For each bit:

IDhi<n>Meaning
0b0

The Common event is not implemented, or not counted.

0b1

The Common event is implemented.

When the value of a bit in the field is 1, the corresponding Common event is implemented and counted.

Note

Arm recommends that if a Common event is never counted, the value of the corresponding bit is 0.

A bit that corresponds to a reserved event number is reserved. The value might be used in a future revision of the architecture to identify an additional Common event.

Note

Such an event might be added retrospectively to an earlier version of the PMU architecture, provided the event does not require any additional PMU features and has an event number that can be represented in the PMCEID<n> registers of that earlier version of the PMU architecture.

Accessing PMCEID2

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