[Xen-devel] [PATCH 17/18] xen/arm: Prevent slipping hypervisor SError to guest

[Wei Chen <Wei.Chen@xxxxxxx>]

If there is a pending SError while we're returning from trap. If the
SError handle option is "DIVERSE", we have to prevent slipping this
hypervisor SError to guest. So we have to use the dsb/isb to guarantee
that the pending hypervisor SError would be caught in hypervisor before
return to guest.
