The DC CVAP characteristics are:
Clean data cache by address to Point of Persistence.
If the memory system does not identify a Point of Persistence, then this instruction behaves as a DC CVAC.
This System instruction is part of the Cache maintenance instructions functional group.
This instruction is introduced in ARMv8.2.
DC CVAP is a 64-bit System instruction.
The DC CVAP input value bit assignments are:
63 | 62 | 61 | 60 | 59 | 58 | 57 | 56 | 55 | 54 | 53 | 52 | 51 | 50 | 49 | 48 | 47 | 46 | 45 | 44 | 43 | 42 | 41 | 40 | 39 | 38 | 37 | 36 | 35 | 34 | 33 | 32 |

Virtual address to use.
This instruction is executed using DC with the following syntax:
DC <dc_op>, <Xt>
This syntax uses the following encoding in the System instruction encoding space:
<dc_op> | op0 | op1 | CRn | CRm | op2 |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
CVAP | 01 | 011 | 0111 | 1100 | 001 |
The instruction is executable as follows:
Control | Accessibility | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
E2H | TGE | NS | EL0 | EL1 | EL2 | EL3 |
x | x | 0 | WO | WO | n/a | WO |
x | 0 | 1 | WO | WO | WO | WO |
x | 1 | 1 | WO | n/a | WO | WO |
This table applies to all syntax that can be used to execute this instruction.
If EL0 access is enabled, when executing at EL0, this instruction requires read access permission to the VA, otherwise it causes a Permission Fault.
