Errata
Errata
E1.CORE: IFU misses an external abort when a lock command is
outstanding.
Problem:A bus abort occurs on a code fetch while an I-TLB lo ck mcr is outstanding. The IFU fails to abort,
instead executing t he ins tructi on return ed on th e abort ing trans action. P arity e rrors are not aff ected.
The bus a bort might be due to either an ABORT pin asserti on or a mult i-bit ECC error on the c ore.
On the core, the bus abort can occur as th e result of a master abort, a targe t abort, or a single data
phase disconnect on the system bus.
Implication:TBD
Workaround:Branch flush after every ITLB or I-ca che lock.
Status:No Fix
E2.CORE: Aborted store that hits D- cache might mark write-back data as
dirty.
Problem:If an aborted store hits clean data in the data cache (data in an aligned four-word range that has not
been modified from the core since it was last loaded in from memory or cleaned), the data in the
array will not be modified (the store will be blocked), but the dirty bit will be set.
When that line is then aged out of the data cache or explicitly cleaned, the data in that four-wor d
range will be evicted to external memory, even though it has never been changed. In normal
operation, this will be nothing more than an extra store on the bus that writes the same data to
memory as is already there.
This problem might be visible at the following boundary condition:
1. A cache line is loaded into the cache at address A
2. Another master externally modifies address A
3. An Intel XScale® core sto re in stru ction atte mpts to mod ify A, hits the cache, aborts becau se o f
MMU permissions, and is back ed out the of cache. That lin e should no t be marked “d irty”, but
because of this defect it will be.
4. The cache line at A then ages out or is explicitly cleaned. The origin al data from location A
will be evicted to external memory, overwriting the data written by the external master.
This situation happen sonly if software is allowing an exter nal m aster to modify memory that is
write-back or w rite- allocate in the XScale pag e tables , an d depen ding o n the f act th at t he data is n ot
dirty in the XScale cache to preclu de the cached version from overwriting the ext ern al memory
version. If there are any semaphor es or any other handshaking to prevent collis ions on shared
memory, this should not be a problem.
Implication:TBD
Workaround:For a shared memory region , mark it as write-through mem ory in the XScale page table to prevent
the data from ever being written out as dirty, so the defect does not appear. Alternatively, ensure
that any cached copy of t he data in exte rnal memory is inv alidated if an ext ernal ag ent mod ifies th e
external copy.
Status:No Fix
