SDER: Secure Debug Enable Register

Purpose

Controls invasive and non-invasive debug in the Secure EL0 mode.

Configuration

AArch32 System register SDER bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register SDER32_EL2[31:0] when EL2 is implemented and FEAT_SEL2 is implemented.

AArch32 System register SDER bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register SDER32_EL3[31:0] when EL3 is implemented.

This register is present only when (EL3 is implemented and EL3 is capable of using AArch32) or (EL1 is capable of using AArch32 and Secure EL1 is implemented). Otherwise, direct accesses to SDER are UNDEFINED.

This register is ignored by the PE when one or more of the following are true:

Attributes

SDER is a 32-bit register.

313029282726252423222120191817161514131211109876543210
RES0SUNIDENSUIDEN

Bits [31:2]

Reserved, RES0.

SUNIDEN, bit [1]

Secure User Non-Invasive Debug Enable.

SUNIDENMeaning
0b0

This bit has no effect on non-invasive debug.

0b1

Non-invasive debug is allowed in Secure EL0 using AArch32.

When EL3 or Secure EL1 is using AArch32, the forms of non-invasive debug affected by this control are:

When Secure EL1 is using AArch64, this bit has no effect.

The reset behavior of this field is:

SUIDEN, bit [0]

When EL3 is implemented:

Secure User Invasive Debug Enable.

SUIDENMeaning
0b0

This bit does not affect the generation of debug exceptions at Secure EL0.

0b1

If EL3 or EL1 is using AArch32, debug exceptions from Secure EL0 are enabled.

The reset behavior of this field is:



Otherwise:

Reserved, RES0.

Accessing SDER

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