DCPS3

Debug change PE state to EL3

This instruction, when executed in Debug state:

• If executed at EL3, selects SP_EL3.
• Otherwise, changes the current Exception level and SP to EL3 using SP_EL3.

The target exception level of a DCPS3 instruction is EL3.

On executing a DCPS3 instruction:

• ELR_EL3 becomes UNKNOWN.
• SPSR_EL3 becomes UNKNOWN.
• ESR_EL3 becomes UNKNOWN.
• DLR_EL0 and DSPSR_EL0 become UNKNOWN.
• The endianness is set according to SCTLR_EL3.EE.

This instruction is always UNDEFINED in Non-debug state.

This instruction is UNDEFINED at all exception levels if either:

• EDSCR.SDD == 1.
• EL3 is not implemented.

For more information on the operation of the DCPS<n> instructions, see DCPS.
