For reference "5.1.2.4 Multi-threaded executions and data races" paragraph 2.

Yes this is what I thought too. I assume the LEON uses an 8-bit store
(stb) for the variables. Maybe the problem comes from the cache? If
the cache line size is 32 bits then conflicting 8-bit stores to the
same cache line could cause a problem.


In this case the cache coherency protocol is broken.
