Re: [Xen-users] Xen 4.8.3 running on BeagleBoard X-15 - problem with paging

Hi Julian,

The patch I applied is below. I have no idea if it is AM572x/DRA7xx specific or just specific to the 2017.01 u-boot I was using.

I have today tracked the paging problem down to a need to flush the TLBs before enabling the MMU. This was done via the TLBIALLH. At the moment I've done it in head.s

Could you be more specific where you added the TLBIALLH?

Cheers,
