The BPIMVA characteristics are:
Invalidate virtual address from branch predictors.
This instruction is present only when EL1 is capable of using AArch32. Otherwise, direct accesses to BPIMVA are UNDEFINED.
In an implementation where the branch predictors are architecturally invisible, this instruction can execute as a NOP.
BPIMVA is a 32-bit System instruction.

Accesses to this instruction use the following encodings in the System instruction encoding space:
coproc | opc1 | CRn | CRm | opc2 |
---|---|---|---|---|
0b1111 | 0b000 | 0b0111 | 0b0101 | 0b111 |
