Invalidate data cache by address to Point of Coherency.
When FEAT_MTE2 is implemented, this instruction might invalidate Allocation Tags from caches. When it invalidates Allocation Tags from caches, it also cleans them.
AArch64 System instruction DC IVAC performs the same function as AArch32 System instruction DCIMVAC.
DC IVAC is a 64-bit System instruction.

Virtual address to use. No alignment restrictions apply to this VA.
When the instruction is executed, it can generate a watchpoint, which is prioritized in the same way as other watchpoints. If a watchpoint is generated, the CM bit in the ESR_ELx.ISS field is set to 1.
If EL0 access is enabled, when executed at EL0, the instruction may generate a Permission fault, subject to the constraints described in 'MMU faults generated by cache maintenance operations'.
Execution of this instruction might require an address translation from VA to PA, and that translation might fault. For more information, see 'The data cache maintenance instruction (DC)'.
Accesses to this instruction use the following encodings in the System instruction encoding space:
