System Synchronize
General Form
SSYNC
Syntax
SSYNC ;
/* (a) */
Instruction Length
In the syntax, comment (a) identifies 16-bit instruction length.
Functional Description
The System Synchronize (
SSYNC
) instruction forces all speculative, tran-
sient states in the core and system to complete before processing
continues. Until
SSYNC
completes, no further instructions can be issued to
the pipeline.
The
SSYNC
instruction performs the same function as Core Synchronize
(
CSYNC
). In addition,
SSYNC
flushes any write buffers (between the L1
memory and the system interface) and generates a Synch request signal to
the external system. The operation requires an acknowledgement
Synch_Ack
signal by the system before completing the instruction.
If the
idle_req
bit of the
SEQSTAT
register is set when
SSYNC
is executed,
the processor enters Idle state and asserts the external Idle signal after
receiving the external
Synch_Ack
signal. After the external Idle signal is
asserted, exiting the Idle state requires an external Wakeup signal.
SSYNC
should be issued immediately before and after writing to a system
MMR. Otherwise, the MMR change can take effect at an indeterminate
time while other instructions are executing, resulting in imprecise
behavior.
