soft reset on PowerPC

Aug 23, 2006 0 Replies

Suppose that the following three events nominally occur in the given order:


1) Store to memory location A
2) Store to memory location B
3) Soft reset

Is it possible for the soft reset to cause the store to A to not occur but the store to B to occur? Does it matter if the soft reset is internally or externally generated? Are the answers to these questions dependent on the PowerPC implementation?
