14.18 Miscellaneous instructions

Table 14-23 shows the cycle timing behavior for If-Then (IT) and No OPeration (NOP)
instructions.

The

DBG

,

PLI

,

SEV

,

WFE

, and

YIELD

instructions are all treated the same as

NOP

, and so have the same

cycle timing behavior.

The

WFI

instruction stalls the pipeline for a variable number of cycles, depending on the current

state of the memory system.
