BPIALLIS: Branch Predictor Invalidate All, Inner Shareable

Purpose

Invalidate all entries from branch predictors Inner Shareable.

Configuration

This instruction is present only when FEAT_AA32EL1 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to BPIALLIS are UNDEFINED.

In an implementation where the branch predictors are architecturally invisible, this instruction can execute as a NOP.

Attributes

BPIALLIS is a 32-bit System instruction.

Field descriptions

This instruction has no applicable fields.

The value in the register specified by <Rt> is ignored.

Executing BPIALLIS

The PE ignores the value of <Rt>. Software does not have to write a value to this register before issuing this instruction.

Accesses to this instruction use the following encodings in the System instruction encoding space:

MCR{<c>}{<q>} <coproc>, {#}<opc1>, <Rt>, <CRn>, <CRm>{, {#}<opc2>}
