TRCSEQEVR<n>, Trace Sequencer State Transition Control Register <n>, n = 0 - 2

The TRCSEQEVR<n> characteristics are:

Purpose

Moves the Sequencer state:

Configuration

External register TRCSEQEVR<n> bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch64 System register TRCSEQEVR<n>[31:0].

This register is present only when FEAT_ETE is implemented, FEAT_TRC_EXT is implemented, and TRCIDR5.NUMSEQSTATE != 0b000. Otherwise, direct accesses to TRCSEQEVR<n> are RES0.

Attributes

TRCSEQEVR<n> is a 32-bit register.

Field descriptions

RES0B_TYPERES0B_SELF_TYPERES0F_SEL

Bits [31:16]

Reserved, RES0.

B_TYPE, bit [15]

Backward field. Selects an event that causes the Sequencer to move from state n+1 to state n. For example, if TRCSEQEVR2.B.SEL == 0x14 then when event 0x14 occurs, the Sequencer moves from state 3 to state 2.

Chooses the type of Resource Selector.

B_TYPEMeaning
0b0

A single Resource Selector.

TRCSEQEVR<n>.B.SEL[4:0] selects the single Resource Selector, from 0-31, used to activate the resource event.

0b1

A Boolean-combined pair of Resource Selectors.

TRCSEQEVR<n>.B.SEL[3:0] selects the Resource Selector pair, from 0-15, that has a Boolean function that is applied to it whose output is used to activate the resource event. TRCSEQEVR<n>.B.SEL[4] is RES0.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Bits [14:13]

Reserved, RES0.

B_SEL, bits [12:8]

Backward field. Selects an event that causes the Sequencer to move from state n+1 to state n. For example, if TRCSEQEVR2.B.SEL == 0x14 then when event 0x14 occurs, the Sequencer moves from state 3 to state 2.

Defines the selected Resource Selector or pair of Resource Selectors. TRCSEQEVR<n>.B.TYPE controls whether TRCSEQEVR<n>.B.SEL is the index of a single Resource Selector, or the index of a pair of Resource Selectors.

If an unimplemented Resource Selector is selected using this field, the behavior of the resource event is UNPREDICTABLE, and the resource event might fire or might not fire when the resources are not in the Paused state.

If an unimplemented Resource Selector is selected using this field, the value returned on a direct read of this field is UNKNOWN.

Selecting Resource Selector pair 0 using this field is UNPREDICTABLE, and the resource event might fire or might not fire when the resources are not in the Paused state.

The reset behavior of this field is:

F_TYPE, bit [7]

Forward field. Selects an event that causes the Sequencer to move from state n to state n+1. For example, if TRCSEQEVR1.F.SEL == 0x12 then when event 0x12 occurs, the Sequencer moves from state 1 to state 2.

Chooses the type of Resource Selector.

F_TYPEMeaning
0b0

A single Resource Selector.

TRCSEQEVR<n>.F.SEL[4:0] selects the single Resource Selector, from 0-31, used to activate the resource event.

0b1

A Boolean-combined pair of Resource Selectors.

TRCSEQEVR<n>.F.SEL[3:0] selects the Resource Selector pair, from 0-15, that has a Boolean function that is applied to it whose output is used to activate the resource event. TRCSEQEVR<n>.F.SEL[4] is RES0.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Bits [6:5]

Reserved, RES0.

F_SEL, bits [4:0]

Forward field. Selects an event that causes the Sequencer to move from state n to state n+1. For example, if TRCSEQEVR1.F.SEL == 0x12 then when event 0x12 occurs, the Sequencer moves from state 1 to state 2.

Defines the selected Resource Selector or pair of Resource Selectors. TRCSEQEVR<n>.F.TYPE controls whether TRCSEQEVR<n>.F.SEL is the index of a single Resource Selector, or the index of a pair of Resource Selectors.

If an unimplemented Resource Selector is selected using this field, the behavior of the resource event is UNPREDICTABLE, and the resource event might fire or might not fire when the resources are not in the Paused state.

If an unimplemented Resource Selector is selected using this field, the value returned on a direct read of this field is UNKNOWN.

Selecting Resource Selector pair 0 using this field is UNPREDICTABLE, and the resource event might fire or might not fire when the resources are not in the Paused state.

The reset behavior of this field is:

Accessing TRCSEQEVR<n>

Must be programmed if TRCRSCTLR<a>.GROUP == 0b0010 and TRCRSCTLR<a>.SEQUENCER != 0b0000.

Writes are CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE if the trace unit is not in the Idle state.

TRCSEQEVR<n> can be accessed through the external debug interface:

ComponentOffsetInstance
ETE0x100 + (4 * n)TRCSEQEVR<n>

Accessible as follows:
