Hi Siva, An SE simulation implicitly runs at EL0, and reading MPIDR_EL1 is undefined at EL0 (unless FEAT_IDST is implemented, which is not currently the case in gem5). It looks like gem5 is segfaulting instead of failing more gracefully in this case, but in general you won’t be able to read MPIDR_EL1 from SE mode. You would probably need to run a baremetal simulation to use MPIDR_EL1, and make the access from EL1 or above.
Best regards, Richard.
