Subject: [PATCH 1/2] target/ppc: Let mtmsr set MSR[ME] on 32-bit PowerPC
Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2026 10:44:42 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261110164443.488899-1-eric_devolder@yahoo.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20261110164443.488899-1-eric_devolder.ref@yahoo.com

On the 32-bit processors (601, 603, 604, 750, 74xx) mtmsr does set ME,
and permits machine checks, otherwise machine check ends in a checkstop.
