Armv7-a TrustZone cps instruction Question

Additionally, is the value 0xdeadbeef considered normal? I believe that 0xdeadbeef is abnormal regardless of whether the processor is in SVC mode, HYP mode, or monitor mode on the ARMv7-A architecture.

That value is used by some tools/software to fill uninitialised memory/variables, as it's an easily recognisable pattern.  That was why I asked if you were using a model, as many models have the option to set memory to some default pattern.
