Per PowerISA v2.07 [1], Book III-E, chapter 7.6 "Interrupt definitions"

"When in Internal Debug Mode with MSR.DE=0, then Instruction Complete
and Branch Taken debug events cannot occur, and no DBSR status bits
are set and no subsequent imprecise Debug interrupt will occur."

Current codes do not check MSR.DE bit before setting HFLAGS_SE and
HFLAGS_BE flag, which would cause the immediate debug interrupt to
be generated, e.g.: when DBCR0.ICMP bit is set by guest software
and MSR.DE is not set.

Which BookE board are you concerned about? I don't think we have any
BookE ISA v2.07 in QEMU currently.

The rationale and the change itself look ok.

It's actually a PPC E500 core, but I am too lazy to dig out the E500
manual from Freescale/NXP :(

Let me know if I need to replace the link to an E500 manual.

Here it is: https://www.nxp.com/docs/en/reference-manual/E500CORERM.pdf

You can keep it =)

> Let me know if I need to replace the link to an E500 manual.

Yes, please. And the description as well:

  "An instruction complete debug event occurs when any instruction
  completes execution so long as MSR[DE] and DBCR0[ICMP] are both set..."
  
  "Instruction complete debug events are not recognized if MSR[DE] is
  cleared at the time of the instruction execution."

Otherwise a few years from now someone will use the git log as reference
and will get confused.

Thanks.
