Hi Nicholas, Recently, the commit addressing unaligned accesses for ELF64 files was added the elfloader. When MMU is disabled, reading or writing 64-bit data from/to 4-byte aligned addresses triggers a fault. I am not sure if you were using the updated elfloader. Hopefully, a git pull may solve your problem.

The alignment fault is caused by reading the elf files header in the elfloader. The fault can be fixed (hacked) by modifying the length of the elf file name, located before the elf file header, to force a proper alignment. Is the seL4 elfloader intended to be dependent on u-boot enabling the cache? _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list Devel@sel4.systems https://sel4.systems/lists/listinfo/devel
