Ambiguous wording for sstatus.CRG

Closed this issue · 0 comments

The section in Zcheripte describing adding the CRG to xstatus CSRs is ambiguous on the writability of the new bits, specifically for sstatus:

mstatus.CRG is made visible in sstatus.CRG.

This could imply that sstatus.CRG is a read-only mirror of mstatus.CRG, rather than being writable.

It would be better if the writability of these bits was explicit
