Serial Wire Debug (SWD) is a 2-pin (SWDIO/SWCLK) electrical alternative JTAG interface that has the same JTAG protocol on top. SWD uses an ARM CPU standard bi-directional wire protocol, defined in the ARM Debug Interface v5. This enables the debugger to become another AMBA bus master for access to system memory and peripheral or debug registers.
The Debug Access Port (DAP) is split into two main control units. The Debug Port (DP) and the Access Port (AP), and the physical connection to the debugger is part of the DP. The DAP supports two types of access, Debug Port (DP) accesses and Access Port (AP) accesses. External device to communicate directly with Serial Wire Debug Port (SW-DP) over SWDIO/SCLK pins. And SW-DP in turn can access one or several Access Ports (APs) the give access to the rest of the system. The MEM-AP is important AP which provide a way to access all memory and peripheral registers residing on the internal AHB/APB buses.
Figure 1. ARM Debug Interface MEM-AP Implementation
One of the four registers within the DP is the AP Select Register, SELECT. This register specifies a particular Access Port, and a bank of four 32-bit words within the register map of that AP. It enables up to 256 Access Ports to be implemented, and gives access to any one of 16 four-word banks of registers on the selected AP.

Sir,
i am working on cortex m4 over serial wire debug protocol,i am able to read IDCODE(0x2ba01477) which is correct as per arm cortex m4 technical reference manual, and i am writing 0x50000000 to CTRLSTAT register to enable CSYSPWRUPREQ and CDBGPWRREQ which is also success without any ACK error,but the thing is when i am trying to read the CTRLSTAT register i got 0xffffffff . I don't understand what might be the problem,Please suggest me what would be the problem??
