CONTEXTIDR_EL1 Sample Register
PC Sample-based Profiling Extension register that contains the sampled value of CONTEXTIDR_EL1, captured on reading PMPCSR[31:0].
This register is present only when FEAT_PMUv3_EXT32 is implemented and FEAT_PCSRv8p2 is implemented.
PMCID1SR is in the Core power domain.
PMCID1SR is a 32-bit register.
This register is part of the PMU block.

Context ID. The value of CONTEXTIDR that is associated with the most recent PMPCSR sample. When the most recent PMPCSR sample is generated:
Because the value written to this register is an indirect read of CONTEXTIDR, it is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE whether this register is set to the original or new value if PMPCSR samples:
The reset behavior of this field is:
If FEAT_PCSRv8p2 and FEAT_PMUv3_EXT64 are implemented, then the same content is present in the same locations, and can be accessed using PMCCIDSR[31:0] or PMCVIDSR[31:0].
IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED extensions to external debug might make the value of this register UNKNOWN, see 'Permitted behavior that might make the PC Sample-based profiling registers UNKNOWN'.
