Therefore it acts just as an ordinary "nop", but according to the 4K manual there is no need for one -- the hazard between a move to EntryLo0/EntryLo1 and tlbwi/tlbwr is explicitly listed as 0 instructions.If the 4KC and 4KEC need it, so does the 4KSC (and 4KSD).Oops. Maybe I misread the patch. I thought the added NOP was between the TLBWR and the ERET. No, it adds it before the TLBWR where there shouldn't be a hazard. Greg Weeks |
