Powerpc instruction manual

Appendix D instructions common to POWER family, POWER2™, and PowerPC. 20. icbi. Instruction Cache Block Invalidate. X. 31. 982. ics. Instruction Cache Synchronize. X. 19. All PowerPC instructions are four bytes long. Whenever the processor calculates the destination address of a branch, the two low-order bits are ignored, so the actual two low-order bits are always 0 in the destination address (i.e., every instruction is word-aligned). This is the PowerPC FAQ. See also the PowerPC Known Issues page and the Official PowerPC Installation Guide (describes the text based installer). Many more general questions have answers at PowerPC™ Microprocessor Common Hardware Reference Platform: I/O Device Reference (Draft Version 0.9).

Additionally, PowerPC processors can prefetch along a target path loaded by a branch and link instruction.

This page describes the syntax used by the MacOS X assembler "as". Other assemblers, like "gas", use a slightly different syntax where registers Appendix A PowerPC Instruction Set Listings. The PowerPC 604 RISC Microprocessor User's Manual summarizes features of the 604 that are not defined by the architecture. for the PowerPC Programming Environments Manual or Bill Karsh's PowerPC assembly tutorial to These instructions are very seldom used, so I don't think it's a problem that they are absent. PowerPC (a backronym for Performance Optimization With Enhanced RISC - Performance Computing, sometimes abbreviated as PPC) is a RISC instruction set architecture created by the 1991 Apple-IBM-Motorola alliance, known as AIM.
