Systick is another story and already used...

Look for any of the Cortex Technical Reference Manual manuals.
DDI0337E_cortex_m3_r1p1_trm.pdf describes the DWT as 11.5 DWT under "System
Debug", DDI0439C_cortex_m4_r0p1_trm.pdf has a whole section on "Data
Wstchpoint and Trace. The core_cm3.h and core_cm4.h in include/arch/cm3/
just checked into SVN contain the definitions, provided by ARM. The NXP
LPC178x/7x User manual "UM10470" clearly states on page 12 in the fourth
dot "The Data Watchpoint and Trace (DWT) unit is included."

Hope this helps
