.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Fn m68k_sync_icache
|
|
synchronizes data and instruction caches over the specified region.
|
|
It should be called prior to executing newly generated code.

|
The affected address range starts at
|
|
.Fa start
|
|
and continues for
|
|
.Fa size
|
|
bytes.
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa start

Addresses outside the specified region may be synchronized, too.
