Mnemonic

Operation and description

tbia

Translation buffer invalidate all

 

The tbia instruction invalidates all translations and virtual cache blocks within

 

the processor.

tbim

Translation buffer invalidate multiple

 

The tbim instruction invalidates multiple virtual translations for the current

 

ASN. The translation for the virtual address must be invalidated in all processor

 

translation buffers and virtual caches.

tbimasn

Translation buffer invalidate multiple for ASN

 

The tbimasn instruction invalidates multiple virtual translations for a specified

 

ASN. The translation for the virtual addresses must be invalidated in all proces-

 

sor translation buffers and virtual caches.

tbis

Translation buffer invalidate single

 

The tbis instruction invalidates a single virtual translation. The translation for

 

the passed virtual address must be invalidated in all processor translation buff-

 

ers and virtual caches.

tbisasn

Translation buffer invalidate single for ASN

 

The tbisasn instruction invalidates a single virtual translation for a specified

 

address space. The translation for the passed virtual address must be invali-

 

dated in all processor translation buffers and virtual caches.

wrentry

Write kernel exception entry routine

 

The wrentry instruction provides the registry of exception handling routines for

 

the exception classes. The kernel must use wrentry to register an exception han-

 

dler for each of the exception classes.

wrmces

Write the machine check error summary register

 

The wrmces instruction writes new values for the MCES internal processor

 

register and returns the previous values of that register.

wrperfmon

Write performance counter interrupt control information

 

The wrperfmon instruction writes control information for the two processor

 

performance counters. One parameter identifies the selected performance

 

counter, while another controls whether the selected performance counter is

 

enabled or disabled. The instruction returns the previous enable state for the

 

selected performance counter.
