Hi  Yanyan,
1. It doesn't set the NS bit to 1 in SCR(I just want it to return without
do anything). The arm_monitor_vector and the smc_handler():
arm_monitor_vector:
    ldr pc, [pc, #28]
    ldr pc, [pc, #24]
    ldr pc, =smc_handler
    ldr pc, [pc, #16]
    ldr pc, [pc, #12]
    ldr pc, [pc, #8]
    ldr pc, [pc, #4]
    ldr pc, [pc, #0]
smc_handler:
    movs pc, lr
2. I didn't do any extra work other than the boot log:
..........
ELF-loader started on CPU: ARM Ltd. Cortex-A9 r2p10
  paddr=[20000000..203fbfff]
ELF-loading image 'kernel'
  paddr=[10000000..10026fff]
  vaddr=[e0000000..e0026fff]
  virt_entry=e0000000
ELF-loading image 'sel4test-driver'
  paddr=[10027000..10500fff]
  vaddr=[8000..4e1fff]
  virt_entry=25a6c
Enabling MMU and paging
Jumping to kernel-image entry point...
3. The initialization operations in platform_init.c:
set sp:
#define MONITOR_MODE        (0x16)
#define MON_VECTOR_START    (0x11000000)
#define VECTOR_BASE     0x11000000
#define STACK_TOP       (VECTOR_BASE + (1 << 12) - 0x10)
asm volatile ( "mrs r1, cpsr\n\t"
                      "cps %0\n\t"
                      "isb\n"
                      "mov sp, %1\n\t"
                      "msr cpsr, r1\n\t"
                     ::"I"(MONITOR_MODE),"r"(STACK_TOP));
copy monitor mode vector to MON_VECTOR_START  and write into MVBAR:
uint32_t size = arm_monitor_vector_end - arm_monitor_vector;
    printf("Copy monitor mode vector from %x to %x size %x\n",
(arm_monitor_vector), MON_VECTOR_START, size);
    memcpy((void *)MON_VECTOR_START, (void *)(arm_monitor_vector), size);
        asm volatile ("dmb\n isb\n");
        asm volatile ("mcr p15, 0, %0, c12, c0, 1"::"r"(MON_VECTOR_START));
I enter into SVC mode by software interrupt and call the function smc():
                  asm (".arch_extension sec\n");
     asm volatile ("stmfd    sp!, {r3-r11, lr}\n\t"
                   "dsb\n"
                   "smc #0\n"
                   "ldmfd    sp!, {r3-r11, pc}");
and then the problem arises.
Thank you,

> I'm porting sel4 to imx6q sabrelite as the trusted OS in trustzone.  I initialize the monitor mode by setting the sp to  STACK_TOP and copying arm_monitor_vector to MON_VECTOR_START according to the functions "install_monitor_hook()" and "switch_to_mon_mode()" in "platform_init.c".
