+- AN536 does not support runtime control of CPU reset and halt via
+  the SCC CFG_REG0 register.
+- AN536 does not support enabling or disabling the flash and ATCM
+  interfaces via the SCC CFG_REG1 register.
+- AN536 does not support setting of the initial vector table
+  base address via the SCC CFG_REG6 and CFG_REG7 register config,
+  and does not provide a mechanism for specifying these values at
+  startup, so all guest images must be built to start from TCM
+  (i.e. to expect the interrupt vector base at 0 from reset).
+- AN536 defaults to only creating a single CPU; this is the equivalent
+  of the way the real FPGA image usually runs with the second Cortex-R52
+  held in halt via the initial SCC CFG_REG0 register setting. You can
+  create the second CPU with ``-smp 2``; both CPUs will then start
+  execution immediately on startup.
+
+Note that for the AN536 the first UART is accessible only by
+CPU0, and the second UART is accessible only by CPU1. The
+first UART accessible shared between both CPUs is the third
+UART. Guest software might therefore be built to use either
+the first UART or the third UART; if you don't see any output
+from the UART you are looking at, try one of the others.
+(Even if the AN536 machine is started with a single CPU and so
+no "CPU1-only UART", the UART numbering remains the same,
+with the third UART being the first of the shared ones.)
