Anomaly 05000312 - Errors When SSYNC, CSYNC, or Loads to LT, LB and LC Registers Are Interrupted: DESCRIPTION: When instruction cache is enabled, erroneous behavior may occur when any of the following instructions are interrupted: . CSYNC • SSYNC • LCx = • LTx = (only when LCx is non-zero) • LBx = (only when LCx is non-zero) When this problem occurs, a variety of incorrect things could happen, including an illegal instruction exception. Additional errors could show up as an exception, a hardware error, or an instruction that is valid but different than the one that was expected. WORKAROUND: Place a cli before all SSYNC, CSYNC, "LCx =", "LTx =", and "LBx =" instructions to disable interrupts, and place an sti after each of these instructions to re-enable interrupts. When these instructions are executed in code that is already non-interruptible, the problem will not occur.
