12.6.3 Performance Monitors Common Event Identification Register 1
The PMCEID1 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 PMCEID1 is architecturally mapped to:
• The AArch32 register PMCEID1_EL0. See Performance Monitors
Common Event Identification Register 1 on page 12-12.
• The external register PMCEID1_EL0.
There is one copy of this register that is used in both Secure and
Non-secure states.
Attributes PMCEID1 is a 32-bit register.
Figure 12-7 shows the PMCEID1 bit assignments

Bits Name Function
[31:1] -
[32] CE[32] Common architectural and microarchitectural feature events that can be counted by the PMU event counters.
For each bit described in Table 12-14, the event is implemented if the bit is set to 1, or not implemented if the bit
is set to 0.
