12.6.2 Performance Monitors Common Event Identification Register 0
The PMCEID0 characteristics are:
Purpose Defines which common architectural and common microarchitectural
feature events are implemented.
Usage constraints This register is accessible as follows:
This register is accessible at EL0 when PMUSERENR_EL0.EN is set to 1.
Configurations The PMCEID0 is architecturally mapped to:
• The AArch64 register PMCEID0_EL0. See Performance Monitors
Common Event Identification Register 0 on page 12-9.
• The external register PMCEID0_EL0.
There is one copy of this register that is used in both Secure and
Non-secure states.
Attributes PMCEID0 is a 32-bit register.
Figure 12-6 shows the PMCEID0 bit assignments.
Figure 12-6 PMCEID0 bit assignments
Table 12-11 shows the PMCEID0 bit assignments with event implemented or not implemented
when the associated bit is set to 1 or 0. See the ARM
®
Architecture Reference Manual ARMv8,
for ARMv8-A architecture profile for more information about these events.

Table 12-11 PMCEID0 bit assignments
Bits Name Function
[31:0] CE[31:0] Common architectural and microarchitectural feature events that can be counted by the PMU event counters.
For each bit described in Table 12-12 on page 12-19, the event is implemented if the bit is set to 1, or not
implemented if the bit is set to 0.
