MOTOROLA
Boundedly undeÞned
. A characteristic of results of certain operations that
are not rigidly prescribed by the PowerPC architecture. Boundedly-
undeÞned results for a given operation may vary among
implementations, and between execution attempts in the same
implementation.
Although the architecture does not prescribe the exact behavior for
when results are allowed to be boundedly undeÞned, the results of
executing instructions in contexts where results are allowed to be
boundedly undeÞned are constrained to ones that could have been
achieved by executing an arbitrary sequence of deÞned instructions,
in valid form, starting in the state the machine was in before
attempting to execute the given instruction.
Breakpoint
. A programmable event that forces the core to take a breakpoint
exception.
Burst
. A bus transfer whose data phase consists of a sequence of transfers.
For example, on a 64-bit bus, a four-beat burst can transfer four,
64-bit double words.
Bus parking.
A feature that optimizes the use of the bus by allowing a device
to retain bus mastership without having to rearbitrate.
Cache
. High-speed memory component containing recently-accessed data
and/or instructions (subset of main memory).
Cache coherency
. An attribute in which an accurate and common view of
memory is provided to all devices that share the a memory system.
Caches are coherent if a processor performing a read from its cache
is supplied with data corresponding to the most recent value written
to memory or to another processorÕs cache.
Cache ßush
. An operation that removes from a cache any data from a
speciÞed address range. This operation ensures that any modiÞed
data within the speciÞed address range is written back to main
memory. This operation is generated typically by a Data Cache
Block Flush (
dcbf
) instruction.
Caching-inhibited
. A memory update policy in which the
cache
is bypassed
and the load or store is performed to or from main memory.
Cast-outs
.
Cache blocks
that must be written to memory when a cache miss
causes a cache block to be replaced.
