Defines the current write pointer for the trace buffer.
AArch64 System register TRBPTR_EL1 bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to External register TRBPTR_EL1[63:0] when FEAT_TRBE_EXT is implemented.
This register is present only when FEAT_TRBE is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRBPTR_EL1 are UNDEFINED.
TRBPTR_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

Trace Buffer current write pointer address.
Defines the virtual address of the next entry to be written to the trace buffer.
If PMBIDR_EL1.Align is not zero, then it is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether bits [M-1:0] are RES0 or read/write, where M is an integer between 1 and PMBIDR_EL1.Align inclusive.
The architecture places restrictions on the values that software can write to the pointer. For more information, see 'Restrictions on Programming the Trace Buffer Unit'.
The reset behavior of this field is:
The PE might ignore a write to TRBPTR_EL1 if any of the following apply:
TRBLIMITR_EL1.E == 0b1, and either FEAT_TRBE_EXT is not implemented or the Trace Buffer Unit is using Self-hosted mode.
TRBLIMITR_EL1.XE == 0b1, FEAT_TRBE_EXT is implemented, and the Trace Buffer Unit is using External mode.
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
