BRBTGT<n>_EL1: Branch Record Buffer Target Address Register <n>, n = 0 - 31

Purpose

The target address of Branch record n + (BRBFCR_EL1.BANK × 32).

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_BRBE is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to BRBTGT<n>_EL1 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

BRBTGT<n>_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

ADDRESS
ADDRESS

ADDRESS, bits [63:0]

Target virtual address of the Branch record.

When an indirect write occurs with a value with ADDRESS bits [63:P] being other than all zeroes or all ones, an UNKNOWN value which is not all zeroes or all ones is written to bits [63:P]. P is defined as:

The value in bits [P-1:0] is the value written.

When an indirect write occurs with a value with ADDRESS bits [63:P] being all zeroes or all ones, the written value is written to bits [63:0], and a read of the register returns the written value.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing this field has the following behavior:

Accessing BRBTGT<n>_EL1

BRBTGT<n>_EL1 is RES0 if n + (BRBFCR_EL1.BANK × 32) >= BRBIDR0_EL1.NUMREC.

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