The DC GVA characteristics are:
Write a value to the Allocation Tags of a naturally aligned block of N bytes, where the size of N is identified in DCZID_EL0. The Allocation Tag used is determined by the input address.
This instruction is present only when FEAT_MTE is implemented. Otherwise, direct accesses to DC GVA are UNDEFINED.
DC GVA is a 64-bit System instruction.

Virtual address to use. There is no alignment restriction on the address within the block of N bytes that is used.
When this instruction is executed, it can generate memory faults or watchpoints which are prioritized in the same way as other memory-related faults or watchpoints. If a synchronous Data Abort fault or a watchpoint is generated, the CM bit in the ESR_ELx.ISS field is not set.
If the memory region being modified is any type of Device memory, this instruction generates an alignment fault that is prioritized in the same way as other alignment faults that are determined by the memory type.
This instruction applies to Normal memory regardless of cacheability attributes.
This instruction behaves as a set of stores to each Allocation Tag within the block being accessed, and so it:
Accesses to this instruction use the following encodings in the System instruction encoding space:
op0 | op1 | CRn | CRm | op2 |
