the standard number. Can you not just lie here(EXC_XFER_LITE(0x400, handle_page_fault))? Move the code to InstructionAccess too and let TLBError branch there.My issue was that if I do EXC_XFER_LITE(0x400, handle_page_fault), I can't leave the EXCEPTION(0x400, InstructionAccess, unknown_exception, EXC_XFER_STD) at address .400 Otherwise, I get twice the same label.

+ EXC_XFER_LITE(0x400, handle_page_fault)You should have the code in TLBMiss and have the TLBError branch there as that is the common case.
As far as I remember, I tried it already but we don't have enough space in TLBmiss for that. We can only have 40 instructions.

If not I think you should keep the old/current way? Same for DataTLB Miss/Errorquoted
