Hello,

Thank you for the answer. Could you please give more information about:

1) Are you on software or hardware team, or both?

2) Is SMMU a third party IP or developed in-house?

3) Do you have a direct access to HDL sources? Are you 100% sure that
hardware does what you say?

4) What happens when CPU writes to ASID register? Does SMMU state
machine latch ASID status (making it visible) only at a single "safe" point?
