(RA|0) + (RB)
DCBST(EA)
An effective address (EA) is formed by adding an index to a base address. The index is the contents of
register RB. The base address is 0 if the RA field is 0, and is the contents of register RA otherwise.
If the data block at the EA is in the data cache and marked as modified, the data block is copied back to main
storage and marked as unmodified in the data cache.
If the data block at the EA is in the data cache, and is not marked as modified, or if the data block at the EA is
not in the data cache, no operation is performed.
The operation specified by this instruction is performed whether or not the memory page referenced by the
EA is marked as cacheable.
If instruction bit 31 contains 1, the contents of CR[CR0] are undefined.
