  • dsb and dmb

    Hi all:

    I have some questions about DMB and DSB in armv8.

    (1)

    In armv8 Reference Manual doc, it says "The DMB instruction does not ensure the completion of any of the memory accesses for which it ensures relative order".

    But in ARM Cortex-A…

  • Transition to secure monitor flow on ARMv8

    Hi everyone,

    Wherever I go on internet, the thing I read is that when SMC instruction is executed an exception is generated, it takes you to the highest exception level (EL3) where secure monitor is running.

    In ARM v8 vector table, given on ARMv8-A architecture…

  • Critical interrupts

    In software there are often cases where you need to have critical interrupts serviced. For example, for:

    • Code profiling
    • Kernel debugging
    • Watchdog handling
    • Error handling.

    With the ARMv7-M architecture this can be achieved using nested interrupt handlers, but…
