MDSTEPOP_EL1: Monitor Debug Step Opcode Register

Purpose

Used to execute instructions while Software Step is in active-not-pending state.

Configuration

This register is present only when FEAT_STEP2 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to MDSTEPOP_EL1 are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

MDSTEPOP_EL1 is a 64-bit register.
