An SMSET is in the CLAIMED state when either the debugger or the application has claimed it. The CLAIMED state provides exclusive access to the owner. The other party is not permitted write access to the unit until the owning party releases the claim. Once a unit is claimed, only the owner can write to the other resources controlled by the claim.
The debugger, however, is allowed to forcibly seize control of a unit, if it is already claimed by the application, by setting the DEBUGGEROVERRIDE bit to 1 in the SMSET configuration register (CFG).
