DBGPRCR_EL1, Debug Power Control Register

The DBGPRCR_EL1 characteristics are:

Purpose

Controls behavior of the PE on powerdown request.

Configuration

AArch64 System register DBGPRCR_EL1 bits [31:0] are architecturally mapped to AArch32 System register DBGPRCR[31:0].

Bit [0] of this register is mapped to EDPRCR.CORENPDRQ, bit [0] of the external view of this register.

The other bits in these registers are not mapped to each other.

Attributes

DBGPRCR_EL1 is a 64-bit register.

CORENPDRQ, bit [0]
When FEAT_DoPD is implemented:

Core no powerdown request. Requests emulation of powerdown.

This request is typically passed to an external power controller. This means that whether a request causes power up is dependent on the IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED nature of the system. The power controller must not allow the Core power domain to switch off while this bit is 1.

CORENPDRQMeaning
0b0

If the system responds to a powerdown request, it powers down Core power domain.

0b1

If the system responds to a powerdown request, it does not powerdown the Core power domain, but instead emulates a powerdown of that domain.

In an implementation that includes the recommended external debug interface, this bit drives the DBGNOPWRDWN signal.

It is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether this bit is reset to its Cold reset value on exit from an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED software-visible retention state. For more information about retention states see 'Core power domain power states'.

Note

Writes to this bit are not prohibited by the IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED authentication interface. This means that a debugger can request emulation of powerdown regardless of whether invasive debug is permitted.

On a Cold reset, if the powerup request is implemented and the powerup request has been asserted, this field is set to an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED choice of 0 or 1. If the powerup request is not asserted, this field is set to 0.


Otherwise:

Core no powerdown request. Requests emulation of powerdown.

This request is typically passed to an external power controller. This means that whether a request causes power up is dependent on the IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED nature of the system. The power controller must not allow the Core power domain to switch off while this bit is 1.

CORENPDRQMeaning
0b0

If the system responds to a powerdown request, it powers down Core power domain.

0b1

If the system responds to a powerdown request, it does not powerdown the Core power domain, but instead emulates a powerdown of that domain.

In an implementation that includes the recommended external debug interface, this bit drives the DBGNOPWRDWN signal.

It is IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED whether this bit is reset to the value of EDPRCR.COREPURQ on exit from an IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED software-visible retention state. For more information about retention states see 'Core power domain power states'.

Note

Writes to this bit are not prohibited by the IMPLEMENTATION DEFINED authentication interface. This means that a debugger can request emulation of powerdown regardless of whether invasive debug is permitted.
