TLBI VMALLWS2E1, TLBI VMALLWS2E1NXS

TLBI VMALLWS2E1, TLBI VMALLWS2E1NXS, TLB Invalidate stage 2 dirty state by VMID, EL1&0

The TLBI VMALLWS2E1, TLBI VMALLWS2E1NXS characteristics are:

Purpose

Invalidates stage 2 write permissions from cached copies of translation table entries from TLBs that meet all the following requirements:

Note

For the EL1&0 translation regimes, the invalidation applies to both global entries and non-global entries with any ASID.

The invalidation applies to the PE that executes this System instruction.

If FEAT_XS is implemented, the nXS variant of this System instruction is defined.

It is IMPLEMENTATION SPECIFIC whether the TLBI System instruction with the nXS qualifier invalidates TLB entries with the XS attribute set to 1.

The TLBI System instruction without the nXS qualifier waits for all memory accesses using in-scope old translation information to complete before it is considered complete.

The TLBI System instruction with the nXS qualifier is considered complete when the subset of these memory accesses with XS attribute set to 0 are complete.

Configuration

This instruction is present only when FEAT_TLBIW is implemented and FEAT_AA64 is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to TLBI VMALLWS2E1, TLBI VMALLWS2E1NXS are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

TLBI VMALLWS2E1, TLBI VMALLWS2E1NXS is a 64-bit System instruction.

Executing TLBI VMALLWS2E1, TLBI VMALLWS2E1NXS

The Rt field should be set to 0b11111. If the Rt field is not set to 0b11111, it is CONSTRAINED UNPREDICTABLE whether:

This system instruction is an alias of the SYS instruction.

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