Some exceptions cannot occur together:
•The BKPT, undefined instruction, SMC, and SVC exceptions are mutually exclusive. Each corresponds to a particular, non-overlapping, decoding of the current instruction.

Programmer’s Model
•When FIQs are enabled, and a precise Data Abort occurs at the same time as an FIQ, the processor enters the Data Abort handler, and proceeds immediately to the FIQ vector. A normal return from the FIQ causes the Data Abort handler to resume execution. Precise Data Aborts must have higher priority than FIQs to ensure that the transfer error does not escape detection. You must add the time for this exception entry to the worst-case FIQ latency calculations in a system that uses aborts to support virtual memory.
The FIQ handler must not access any memory that can generate a Data Abort, because the initial Data Abort exception condition is lost if this happens.
Note
If the data abort is a precise external abort and bit 3 (EA) of SCR is set, the processor enters Secure Monitor mode where aborts and FIQs are disabled automatically. Therefore, the processor does not proceed to FIQ vector immediately afterwards.
