Pointer Masking in M Mode with VM enabled not Working as intended

[MuhammadHammad001]

Context:

Hi, I am writing the test for Pointer Masking in M Mode. I have enabled the pointer Masking by setting up the mseccfg and also enabled the virtualization by selecting the SV-48 address translation scheme with MPP as M Mode and MPRV enabled in mstatus register. (hence, returning to M Mode with address translation enabled for data accesses)
The test.S, spike.log and the sail log is attached as well for the reference.

Issue:

When I switch from M to M, at the following instruction, the spike gives a load-page-fauit which is not intended because with pointer masking enabled, this address should be masked and this instruction should be accessed properly as done in the sail log.

May be the reason:

The pointer Masking is enabled when the test is in the M Mode but it may be falsely considering the address as a physical address and masking it accordingly (i.e., setting the upper 16 bits (SV48) equal to zero) because of the current privilege mode = M.
