7reserved(0).

6:5 Disable Source

Selects event that will disable the performance monitor.

00b Never Disable.

01b Disable when this counter is overflowed (Note that if this setting is used, and bits [4:3] are set to ’Enable Always’, then when this counter is overflowed, counting will not resume until the counter is loaded with a non-overflow value).

10b Disable on falling edge of SAC Event 0.

11b Disable on falling edge of SAC Event 1.

4:3 Enable Source

Selects event that will enable the performance monitor.

00b Never Enable.

01b Enable Always (Disable events overrides this setting and will disable counting). 10b Enable on rising edge of SAC Event 0.

11b Enable on rising edge of SAC Event 1.

2:0 Reload Control

Selects event that will control the Reloading of the performance monitor with the value written into the associated PMD2 register.

000b Never Reload.

001b Reload when counter overflows.

010b Reload on SAC Event 0 Asserted.

011b Reload on SAC Event 1 Asserted.

100b Reload on SAC Event 0 Asserting edge.

101b Reload on SAC Event 1 Asserting edge.

Note: When counting retried reads (code of 110_0110b) the logic will count reads that were to be retried, but got a HITM# and therefore the HITM# overrides the retry. For an exact count of reads that are truly retried, count retried reads (110_0110b) and subtract out the number of reads that were to be retried but got a HITM# (code of 001_0111b). This give the exact number of reads that were retried on the bus.
