3. OC address array write (associative)
When a write is performed with the A bit in the address field set to 1, each way's tag stored in
the entry specified in the address field is compared with the tag specified in the data field. The
way number set in bit [14] is ignored. If the MMU is enabled at this time, comparison is
performed after the virtual address specified by data field bits [31:10] has been translated to a
physical address using the UTLB. If the addresses match and the V bit in that way is 1, the U
bit and V bit specified in the data field are written into the OC entry. This operation is used to
invalidate a specific OC entry. In other cases, no operation is performed. If the OC entry U bit
is 1, and 0 is written to the V bit or to the U bit, write-back is performed. If a UTLB miss
occurs during address translation, or the comparison shows a mismatch, an exception is not
generated, no operation is performed, and the write is not executed. If a data TLB multiple hit
exception occurs during address translation, processing switches to the data TLB multiple hit
exception handling routine.

OC Data Array
The OC data array is allocated to addresses H'F500 0000 to H'F5FF FFFF in the P4 area. A data
array access requires a 32-bit address field specification (when reading or writing) and a 32-bit
data field specification. The way and entry to be accessed are specified in the address field, and
the longword data to be written is specified in the data field.
In the address field, bits [31:24] have the value H'F5 indicating the OC data array, the way is
specified by bit [14], and the entry is specified by bits [13:5]. CCR.OIX has no effect on this entry
specification. The OC address array access in RAM mode (CCR.ORA = 1) is performed only to
cache, and bit [13] specifies the way. For details on address allocation, see section 4.6.5, Summary
of Memory-Mapped OC Addresses. Address field bits [4:2] are used for the longword data
specification in the entry. As only longword access is used, 0 should be specified for address field
bits [1:0].
The data field is used for the longword data specification.
