Trace Virtual Context Identifier Comparator Value Register <n>
Contains the Virtual Context Identifier Comparator value.
AArch64 System register TRCVMIDCVR<n> bits [63:0] are architecturally mapped to External register TRCVMIDCVR<n>[63:0].
This register is present only when FEAT_ETE is implemented and System register access to the trace unit registers is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRCVMIDCVR<n> are UNDEFINED.
TRCVMIDCVR<n> is a 64-bit register.

Virtual context identifier value. The width of this field is indicated by TRCIDR2.VMIDSIZE. Unimplemented bits are RES0. After a PE Reset, the trace unit assumes that the Virtual context identifier is zero until the PE updates the Virtual context identifier .
The reset behavior of this field is:
Must be programmed if any of the following are true:
If the trace unit is not in the Idle state it is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE whether writes to this register are ignored.
Accesses to this register use the following encodings in the System register encoding space:
