* queued cache invalidates to be delivered to the local caches before starting any subsequent reads (that may otherwise
* cache hit on stale data) or writes (that may otherwise write the cache, only to have the write effectively overwriiten
* by a late-delivered invalidate)

/* For _PA_RISC1_0, _PA_RISC1_1, accesses to the address space (both to memory and I/O) through load, store and
* semaphore instructions are strongly ordered. This means that accesses appear to software to be done in program order
* For _PA_RISC2_0, accesses could be "strongly ordered", "ordered", or "weakly ordered" (read PA-RISC 2.0 ARCHITECTURE
* by Gerry Kane, appendix "Memory Ordering Model").
*
* For all PA-RISC architectures, cache flush operations are weakly ordered. Flushes may be delayed or held pending, and
* a sequence of flush operations may be executed in any order.
*
* SYNC : Enforce program order of memory references
* Any load, store, semaphore, cache flush, or cache purge instructions that follow the SYNC instruction get executed
* only after all such instructions prior to the SYNC instruction have completed executing. On implementations which
* execute such instructions out of sequence, this instruction enforces program ordering. In sytems in which all memory
* references are performed in order, this instruction executes as a null instruction.
*
* IMPORTANT: SYNC instruction enforces ordering of only those accesses caused by the instructions executed on the
* same processor which executes the SYNC instruction.
*
* [Vinaya] Research results: Accesses to fields (global) that are defined volatile are ordered (compiler generates
* LDW (or STW) instruction with the O (ordered) completer, i.e., instructions generated are LDW,O (STW,O). Depending
* on the requirements, it may be sufficient to define shared fields as volatile to enforce ordering. With replication
* though, it is important that pending cache flushes are completed so that source server sees the transaction data
* in its entirety.
