      <para>This instruction validates that the stack being
switched to contains a Valid GCS cap record, stores an In-progress GCS cap record to
the stack that is being switched to, and sets the current GCS pointer register
to the stack that is being switched to.</para>
      <para>If the instruction generates a synchronous Data Abort exception, Watchpoint exception,
GPC exception, or GCS Data Check exception, the value of <xref linkend="ARMARM_GCSPR_ELx">GCSPR_ELx</xref>
for the current Exception level is restored to the value held in the register before
the instruction was executed.</para>
