Workaround
The simplest workaround is to insure that no two such instructions ever appear in the instruction stream
consecutively. Specifically, a conditional coprocessor instruction should not precede a load/store 64/double.
Simply inserting another ARM or coprocessor instruction accomplishes this:
Cases where branches may be taken also needs to be handled. In this particular case, the first instruction
is moved earlier in the instruction stream by exchanging it with the previous one:
To avoid this error when entering exception and interrupt handlers, the first instruction in an interrupt or
exception handler should not be a coprocessor instruction. Since the first instruction is normally a branch,
this error should not appear.
Description 2
Under certain circumstances, incorrect values may be used for arithmetic calculations or stored in memory.
The error appears as follows.
1) Execute a coprocessor instruction whose target is one of the coprocessor general purpose register c0
2) Let the second instruction be an instruction with the same target, but not be executed
3) Execute a third instruction at least one of whose operands is the target of the previous two instructions.
For example, assume no pipeline interlocks other than the dependencies involving register c0 in the
following instruction sequence:
In this particular case, the incorrect value stored at the address in r2 is the previous value in c0, not the
expected one resulting from the cfadd32.
