Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/2] GICv2 & GICv3: RAZ/WI reserved addresses rather than aborting
Date: Wed, 13 Dec 2017 16:52:19 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1513183941-24300-1-git-send-email-peter.maydell@linaro.org> (raw)

The GICv2 and GICv3 specifications say that reserved register
addresses should RAZ/WI.  This means we need to return MEMTX_OK, not
MEMTX_ERROR, because now that we support generating external aborts
the latter will cause an abort on new board models.

In particular, at least some versions of UEFI try to
access a reserved address in the GICv3 redistributor
(at SGI_base + 0x184) and fail to boot on the virt board
without this.

thanks
