29<h2>Description</h2>
30<p>Locks the current contents of the L1 instruction cache so they cannot be invalidated. Hits are still serviced but misses go straight to the L2 instruction cache or 60x bus.</p>

32<p>In PowerPC architecture jargon, this feature is referred to as locking the instruction cache.&nbsp;We use the word &quot;freeze&quot; for the Wii to distinguish between the locked cache and DMA features.</p>
