[PATCH] target/arm: Fix MTE0_ACTIVE

[PATCH] target/arm: Fix MTE0_ACTIVE

[Richard Henderson]

In 50244cc76abc we updated mte_check_fail to match the ARM
pseudocode, using the correct EL to select the TCF field.
But we failed to update MTE0_ACTIVE the same way, which led
to g_assert_not_reached().

I don't understand this change, could you explain a bit more?
In commit 50244cc76abcac we change to looking at the TCF
field corresponding to the actual current EL instead of the
EL for the memory-access. But if we're doing that then why
should we be looking at exclusively SCTLR_TCF0 in this
for-unpriv-access code rather than doing the same thing we do
for normal accesses and checking
  (sctlr & (el == 0 ? SCTLR_TCF0 : SCTLR_TCF))
?

thanks

Correct.

Because this is for the UNPRIV instructions which are UNDEF at el == 0.

Ah, right. (It didn't help that I'd read the diff backwards:
the new code looks at SCTLR_TCF, not SCTLR_TCF0.)

Further, the SCTLR_*.ATA/ATA0 checks *are* based on the
privilege of the access, which is why calling
allocation_tag_access_enabled(env, 0, sctlr)
is still correct.

Applied to target-arm.next, thanks.
