hi, experts:
I learned CoreSight component is used to help debug hardware/software bugs.
So after finished debugging tasks, the CoreSight component could be turned off by software?

    Hi,
    One way i can think of is by cutting off clocks to the respective debug components by programming your clock gating enable registers in your SoC.

    hi, maheshp:

    Thanks for your answer!

    Do you learn some popular ARM SOC supports this turning off function?

    Or, usually keep CoreSight compoents turning on status?
