| Description | Global Event Buffer Count Register This register holds the number of valid bytes in the Event Buffer. During initialization, software must initialize the count by writing 0 to the Event Count field. Each time the hardware writes a new event to the Event Buffer, it increments this count. Most events are four bytes, but some events may span over multiple four byte entries. Whenever the count is greater than zero, the hardware raises the corresponding interrupt line (depending on the EvntIntMask bit in the GEVNTSIZn register). On an interrupt, software processes one or more events out of the Event Buffer. Afterwards, software must write the Event Count field with the number of bytes it processed. Clock crossing delays may result in the interrupts continual assertion after software acknowledges the last event. Therefore, when the interrupt line is asserted, software must read the GEVNTCOUNT register and only process events if the GEVNTCOUNT is greater than 0. Instance 1 of an array of 4. |

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reserved | 31:16 | roRead-only | 0x0 | Reserved |
| EVNTCOUNT | 15:0 | rwNormal read/write | 0x0 | Event Count (EVNTCount) When read, returns the number of valid events in the Event Buffer (in bytes). When written, hardware decrements the count by the value written. The interrupt line remains high when count is not 0. |
