Global control register for the activity monitors implementation. AMCR_EL0 is applicable to both the architected and the auxiliary counter groups.
AArch64 System register AMCR_EL0 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register AMCR[31:0].
AArch64 System register AMCR_EL0 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to External register AMU.AMCR[31:0] when FEAT_AMU_EXT32 is implemented.
AArch64 System register AMCR_EL0 bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to External register AMU.AMCR[63:0] when FEAT_AMU_EXT64 is implemented.
This register is present only when FEAT_AMUv1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to AMCR_EL0 are UNDEFINED.
AMCR_EL0 is a 64-bit register.

System register reads of AMEVCNTR1<n>_EL0 return the event count at all implemented and enabled Exception levels. |
| 0b1 |
If the current Exception level is the highest implemented Exception level, system register reads of AMEVCNTR1<n>_EL0 return the event count. Otherwise, reads of AMEVCNTR1<n>_EL0 return a zero value. |
Reads from the memory-mapped view are unaffected by this field.

This bit controls whether activity monitor counting is halted when the PE is halted in Debug state.
| HDBG | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0b0 |
Activity monitors do not halt counting when the PE is halted in Debug state. |
| 0b1 |
Activity monitors halt counting when the PE is halted in Debug state. |
