Or am I doing something wrong? Which version of QEMU are you using? (Looking at the code I suspect we still have this bug in master, but it's always useful to specify what version you're using in a bug report.) Richard, I think we're tripping over the check you added in commit af2882289951e. Specifically: + /* We UNDEF for these UNPREDICTABLE cases. */ + if (a->rd == 15 || a->rn == 15 || a->rt == 15 + || a->rd == a->rn || a->rd == a->rt + || (s->thumb && (a->rd == 13 || a->rt == 13)) + || (mop == MO_64 + && (a->rt2 == 15 + || a->rd == a->rt2 || a->rt == a->rt2 + || (s->thumb && a->rt2 == 13)))) { + unallocated_encoding(s); + return true; + } in the mop == MO_64 subclause we check for a->rt == a->rt2 so we will UNDEF for rt == rt2, as in this example. But the pseudocode in the spec doesn't say that rt == rt2 is an UNPREDICTABLE case. (It is an UNDPREDICTABLE case for LDREXD, but STREXD lets you write the same register twice if you want to.) Or am I misreading this? thanks -- PMM
