3.5.3.12.1. Breakpoints and Watchpoints

The core supports six breakpoints and four watchpoints. A breakpoint consists of a breakpoint control register and a breakpoint value register. Four of the breakpoints (BRP 0-3) match only to virtual address and the other two (BRP 4 and 5) match against either virtual address or context ID, or VMID. All the watchpoints can be linked to two breakpoints (BRP 4 and 5) to enable a memory request to be trapped in each process context.
