Hi Richard,

Thanks for your guidance. It set me in the right direction. Now I
think I've got the right spot.

function `helper_ld_asi` has a block to help load ASI_KERNELTXT, but the
ASI_USERTXT case defaults to sparc_raise_mmu_fault(); I believe this
is the true culprit
source reference:
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/blob/master/target/sparc/ldst_helper.c?ref_type=heads#L687

The code for the ASI_KERNELTXT seems generic enough to also use for
ASI_USERTXT verbatim.
See v2 patch below. I've done a `make test` -- all passing (3 skips).
OS boots, and the
debuggers are working without issue. What do you think?

Once we arrive at the right solution, I'll finalize the patch.
