- * Sync types defined by the MIPS architecture (document MD00087 table 6.5)
- * These values are used with the sync instruction to perform memory barriers.
- * Types of ordering guarantees available through the SYNC instruction:
- * - Completion Barriers
- * - Ordering Barriers
- * As compared to the completion barrier, the ordering barrier is a
- * lighter-weight operation as it does not require the specified instructions
- * before the SYNC to be already completed. Instead it only requires that those
- * specified instructions which are subsequent to the SYNC in the instruction
- * stream are never re-ordered for processing ahead of the specified
- * instructions which are before the SYNC in the instruction stream.
- * This potentially reduces how many cycles the barrier instruction must stall
- * before it completes.
- * Implementations that do not use any of the non-zero values of stype to define
- * different barriers, such as ordering barriers, must make those stype values
- * act the same as stype zero.

-/*
- * Completion barriers:
- * - Every synchronizable specified memory instruction (loads or stores or both)
- * that occurs in the instruction stream before the SYNC instruction must be
- * already globally performed before any synchronizable specified memory
- * instructions that occur after the SYNC are allowed to be performed, with
- * respect to any other processor or coherent I/O module.
- *
- * - The barrier does not guarantee the order in which instruction fetches are
- * performed.
- *
- * - A stype value of zero will always be defined such that it performs the most
- * complete set of synchronization operations that are defined.This means
- * stype zero always does a completion barrier that affects both loads and
- * stores preceding the SYNC instruction and both loads and stores that are
- * subsequent to the SYNC instruction. Non-zero values of stype may be defined
- * by the architecture or specific implementations to perform synchronization
- * behaviors that are less complete than that of stype zero. If an
- * implementation does not use one of these non-zero values to define a
- * different synchronization behavior, then that non-zero value of stype must
- * act the same as stype zero completion barrier. This allows software written
- * for an implementation with a lighter-weight barrier to work on another
- * implementation which only implements the stype zero completion barrier.
- *
- * - A completion barrier is required, potentially in conjunction with SSNOP (in
- * Release 1 of the Architecture) or EHB (in Release 2 of the Architecture),
- * to guarantee that memory reference results are visible across operating
- * mode changes. For example, a completion barrier is required on some
- * implementations on entry to and exit from Debug Mode to guarantee that
- * memory effects are handled correctly.
