40<h2>Description</h2>
41
42<p>Loads a range into cache and zeroes out all the cache blocks. The <code><strong><em>startAddr</em></strong></code> argument is rounded down to a 32-byte boundary. The end address ( i.e., <code><strong><em>startAddr</em></strong></code><i>+ </i><strong><em><code>nBytes</code></em></strong>) is rounded up to the 32-byte boundary.</p>
43
44<p>If the cache is frozen using <code><a href="DCFreeze.html">DCFreeze</a></code>, this command will still execute.&nbsp;However, if the cache is disabled, an alignment exception will be generated.</p>
