as we know supervisor mode is priviliged and user is not. at reset time in debugging mode, i read the cpsr it is 0x1d3 means in supervisor mode, so i can change CPSR so i changed it to 0x1d0 which is user mode, since user mode is unpriviliged so i must not able to modify CPSR, but when i again write it to 0x1d3, i updates. why is it so?
I understand. However, I can assure you that you do not need to check things like this. Where a certain feature or behavior is mandated by the architecture, it is absolutely guaranteed to work the way it is described in the Architecture Reference Manual.
Good luck with your investigations. Let us know if there is any otherway we can help.

Well to quote HMS Pinafore: And I'm never, never sick at sea! Chorus. What, never? Captain. No, never! Chorus. What, never? Captain. Hardly ever! Chorus. He's hardly ever sick at sea!
But yes it is simply not worth worrying about hardware errata though it is a good idea to read the notices occasionally. If you do have the misfortune to come across one of these you'll probably pull your hair out investigating everything else first - and quite rightly too. They tend to involve some very obscure combination of circumstance such that any change like for instance sticking in a trace message which changes the alignment in a cache line makes it disappear.
