The DCCSW characteristics are:
Clean data or unified cache line by set/way.
This System instruction is part of the Cache maintenance instructions functional group.
AArch32 System instruction DCCSW performs the same function as AArch64 System instruction DC CSW.
DCCSW is a 32-bit System instruction.
The DCCSW input value bit assignments are:
31 | 30 | 29 | 28 | 27 | 26 | 25 | 24 | 23 | 22 | 21 | 20 | 19 | 18 | 17 | 16 | 15 | 14 | 13 | 12 | 11 | 10 | 9 | 8 | 7 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 3 | 2 | 1 | 0 |
SetWay | Level | 0 |
Contains two fields:
Bits[L-1:4] are RES0.
A = Log2(ASSOCIATIVITY), L = Log2(LINELEN), B = (L + S), S = Log2(NSETS).
ASSOCIATIVITY, LINELEN (line length, in bytes), and NSETS (number of sets) have their usual meanings and are the values for the cache level being operated on. The values of A and S are rounded up to the next integer.
Cache level to operate on, minus 1. For example, this field is 0 for operations on L1 cache, or 1 for operations on L2 cache.
Reserved, RES0.
This instruction is executed using MCR with the following syntax:
MCR <syntax>
This syntax uses the following encoding in the System instruction encoding space:
<syntax> | opc1 | opc2 | CRn | coproc | CRm |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
p15, 0, <Rt>, c7, c10, 2 | 000 | 010 | 0111 | 1111 | 1010 |
The instruction is executable as follows:
Control | Accessibility | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
E2H | TGE | NS | EL0 | EL1 | EL2 | EL3 |
x | x | 0 | - | WO | n/a | WO |
x | 0 | 1 | - | WO | WO | WO |
x | 1 | 1 | - | n/a | WO | WO |
This table applies to all syntax that can be used to execute this instruction.
If this instruction is executed with a set, way or level argument that is larger than the value supported by the implementation then the behavior is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE and one of the following occurs:
For a description of the prioritization of any generated exceptions, see section G1.11.2 (Exception priority order) in the ARM® Architecture Reference Manual, ARMv8, for ARMv8-A architecture profile for exceptions taken to AArch32 state, and section D1.13.2 (Synchronous exception prioritization) for exceptions taken to AArch64 state. Subject to the prioritization rules, the following traps and enables are applicable when executing this System instruction.
When EL2 is implemented and is using AArch64 and SCR_EL3.NS==1 && HCR_EL2.E2H==0 :
If HCR_EL2.TSW==1, Non-secure execution of this instruction at EL1 is trapped to EL2.
If HSTR_EL2.T7==1, Non-secure execution of this instruction at EL1 is trapped to EL2.
When EL2 is implemented and is using AArch64 and SCR_EL3.NS==1 && HCR_EL2.E2H==1 && HCR_EL2.TGE==0 :
If HCR_EL2.TSW==1, Non-secure execution of this instruction at EL1 is trapped to EL2.
If HSTR_EL2.T7==1, Non-secure execution of this instruction at EL1 is trapped to EL2.
When EL2 is implemented and is using AArch32 and SCR_EL3.NS==1 :
