Abstract
A processing circuitry having a secure domain and a less secure domain. A control storage location stores a domain transition disable configuration parameter specifying whether domain transitions between the secure domain and the less secure domain are enabled or disabled in at least one mode of the process-ing circuitry. In the at least one mode of the processing circuitry, when the domain transition disable configuration parameter specifies that said domain transitions are disabled in said at least one mode, a disabled domain transition fault is signalled in response to an attempt to transition between domains in either direction. This can help support lazy configuration of resources for the secure domain or less secure domain for a thread expected only to need the other domain.
