Subject: [PATCH v1 2/6] arm64: cpufeature: Remove Cortex-X4 from the BBML3 allow list
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2026 14:50:16 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261113145022.2592454-3-ryan.roberts@arm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261113145022.2592454-1-ryan.roberts@arm.com>

Cortex-X4 erratum 3043263 can cause a load or store to livelock when
mapping size changes without break-before-make or when contiguous hints
are programmed inconsistently.

The erratum was previously reported as fixed in r0p3. On that basis,
commit 5aa4b625762e ("arm64: Add BBM Level 2 cpu feature") added
Cortex-X4 from r0p3.

The updated Cortex-X4 SDEN v13, dated 18 June 2026, lists r0p0, r0p1,
r0p2 and r0p3 as affected and the erratum as open.

Remove the entry so Cortex-X4 observes break-before-make, and record the
workaround in the silicon errata registry.
