When a branch count is reported without an address it is because a branch has failed the prediction. However, when an address is
802802
reported along with a branch count, it will be because the packet was initiated by an uninferable discontinuity, an exception, or
803-
because a branch has been encountered when \textbf{branch\_count} is 0xffff\_ffff. For the latter case, the
803+
because a branch has been encountered that increments \textbf{branch\_count} to 0xffff\_ffff. For the latter case, the
804804
reported address will always be for a branch, and in the former cases it may be. If it is a branch,
805805
it is necessary to be explicit about whether or not the prediction was met or not. If it is met, then the reported address is
806806
that of the last correctly predicted branch.
