C11.9
Stall Control Register
The TRCSTALLCTLR characteristics are:
Purpose
Enables the ETM trace unit to stall the Cortex
‑
A35 processor if the ETM trace unit FIFO
overflows.
Usage constraints
• You must always program this register as part of trace unit initialization.
• Accepts writes only when the trace unit is disabled.
Configurations
Available in all configurations.

ISTALL, [8]
Instruction stall bit. Controls if the trace unit can stall the processor when the instruction trace
buffer space is less than LEVEL:
0
The trace unit does not stall the processor.
1
The trace unit can stall the processor.

LEVEL, [3:2]
Threshold level field. The field can support 4 monotonic levels from
0b00
to
0b11
, where:
0b00
Zero invasion. This setting has a greater risk of an ETM trace unit FIFO overflow.
0b11
Maximum invasion occurs but there is less risk of a FIFO overflow.
