CP15DMB, Data Memory Barrier System instruction

The CP15DMB characteristics are:

Purpose

Performs a Data Memory Barrier.

Arm deprecates any use of this System instruction, and strongly recommends that software use the DMB instruction instead.

Configuration

This instruction is present only when AArch32 is supported. Otherwise, direct accesses to CP15DMB are UNDEFINED.

Attributes

CP15DMB 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 CP15DMB

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

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