Hi Folks,

    I think we fixed the problem.  We were checking the validity of the over-typed ASID, and when it was wrong, it was possible to feed a wrong ASID into the SRB that gets the data from the other address space.  The fix was, that in the case of an error when the ASID was being over-typed, we now always feed our own ASID into the SRB, to guarantee that the SRB won't run in error.  Then, when we try to over-type the ASID again, we'll have another chance to get it right.

    I think you can now safely beat up LOOKN, and see if you can find other issues, or else you can just enjoy it.

    Thanks very much for bearing with us.

Sincerely,    Sam and Joe
