Question
Which fault is caused by accessing a locked CoreSight register without unlocking it?
Answer
The CoreSight 'lock' function is described in CoreSight v1.0 Architecture Spec, section 3.6.4 as:
"Write access to the component is blocked. All writes to control registers are ignored. Reads are permitted."
Therefore reads will succeed and writes will fail silently without any error response (which means without any fault).
