Debugging 8-11
Table 8-1 lists the debug events and the related fields in DBCR0, DBCR1, and DBSR. DBCR0 and
DBCR1 enable the debugs events, and the DBSR fields report their occurrence.
8.5.7 Instruction Complete Debug Event
This debug event occurs after the completion of an instruction. If DBCR0[IDM] = 1, DBCR0[EDM] = 0
and MSR[DE] =0 this debug event is disabled.
8.5.8 Branch Taken Debug Event
This debug event occurs before execution of a branch instruction determined to be taken. If
DBCR0[IDM] = 1, DBCR0[EDM] = 0 and MSR[DE] =0 this debug event is disabled.
8.5.9 Exception Taken Debug Event
This debug event occurs after an exception. Exception debug events always include the non-critical
class of exceptions. When DBCR0[IDM] = 1 and DBCR0[EDM] = 0 the critical exceptions are not
included.

DBSR Fields Description
Instruction Completion IC IC Occurs after completion of an instruction.
Branch Taken BT BT Occurs before execution of a branch
instruction determined to be taken.
Exception Taken EDE EXC Occurs after an exception.
Trap Instruction TDE TIE Occurs before execution of a trap
instruction where the conditions are such
that the trap will occur.
Unconditional UDE UDE Occurs immediately upon being set by the
JTAG debug port or the
XXX_cpuUncondDebugEvent signal.

that accesses a data address that matches
the contents of the specified DAC register.

address matches the value in the specified
DVC register.

occurred while MSR[DE] = 0
