Certain read causes hang/crash

[Hedley]

Reading this cell: 0xe0040000 will hard crash the CPU. You can do it from non secure code also, which opens the way for a possible denial of service attack.

I​n gdb:

x​/x 0xe0040000

I​ realize parallel trace (the tpiu reg in Q) is not implemented but at least return 0, dont hang.

Only a power cycle can recover it. Soft reset is insufficient.

Operator error. That space @0xe0040000 cannot be read unless... some bits are flipped.

SWO trace works now.
