ICCCI
This instruction flash invalidates the entire instruction cache array. The RA and RB operands are not used;
previous implementations used these operands to calculate an effective address (EA) which specified the
particular block or blocks to be invalidated. The instruction form (including the specification of RA and RB
operands) is maintained for software and tool compatibility.
Registers Altered
• None
Invalid Instruction Forms
• Reserved fields
Programming Notes
Execution of this instruction is privileged.
This instruction is intended for use in the power-on reset routine to invalidate the entire instruction cache
array before caching is enabled.
Architecture Note
This instruction is implementation-specific and programs which use this instruction may not be portable to
other PowerPC Book-E implementations. See Instruction Set Portability on page 250.
