DCPS1

Debug change PE state to EL1

This instruction, when executed in Debug state:

• If executed at EL0, changes the current Exception level and SP to EL1 using SP_EL1.
• Otherwise, if executed at ELx, selects SP_ELx.

The target exception level of a DCPS1 instruction is:

• EL1 if the instruction is executed at EL0.
• Otherwise, the Exception level at which the instruction is executed.

When the target Exception level of a DCPS1 instruction is ELx, on executing this instruction:

• ELR_ELx becomes UNKNOWN.
• SPSR_ELx becomes UNKNOWN.
• ESR_ELx becomes UNKNOWN.
• DLR_EL0 and DSPSR_EL0 become UNKNOWN.
• The endianness is set according to SCTLR_ELx.EE.

This instruction is always UNDEFINED in Non-debug state.

This instruction is UNDEFINED at EL0 in Non-secure state if EL2 is implemented and HCR_EL2.TGE == 1.
