As another option: there may be no memory at this physical address.
If your board only has 1G of memory, but the bootloader/DT is reporting 2G, you could see
SError like this (assuming this is the first access to that page).

SError can be a fatal interrupt from the hardware, its also how the CPU tells us about
'asynchronous external abort'. In this case it could be an attempt to access a physical
address where nothing exists.


Thanks,

James
