Autobaud. The process of determining a serial data rate by timing the width of a single bit.
Breakpoint. A programmable event that forces the core to take a breakpoint exception.
Architecture. A detailed specification of requirements for a processor or computer
Atomic access. A bus access that attempts to be part of a read-write operation to the same
Beat. A single state on the bus interface that may extend across multiple bus cycles. A
Big-endian. A byte-ordering method in memory where the address n of a word
Boundedly undefined. A characteristic of certain operation results that are not rigidly
Burst. A multiple-beat data transfer whose total size is typically equal to a cache block.
Bus clock. Clock that causes the bus state transitions.
system. It does not specify details of how the processor or computer system must
be implemented; instead it provides a template for a family of compatible
implementations.
address uninterrupted by any other access to that address (the term refers to the
fact that the transactions are indivisible). The Power Architecture technology
implements atomic accesses through the lwarx/stwcx. instruction pair.
transaction can be composed of multiple address or data beats.
corresponds to the most-significant byte. In an addressed memory word, the bytes
are ordered (left to right) 0, 1, 2, 3, with 0 being the most-significant byte. See
Little
prescribed by the Power Architecture technology. Boundedly-undefined results
for a given operation may vary among implementations and between execution
attempts in the same implementation.
Although the architecture does not prescribe the exact behavior for when results
are allowed to be boundedly undefined, the results of executing instructions in
contexts where results are allowed to be boundedly undefined are constrained to
ones that could have been achieved by executing an arbitrary sequence of defined
instructions, in valid form, starting in the state the machine was in before
attempting to execute the given instruction.
