This instruction creates a reservation for use by a Store Double Word Conditional Indexed (stdcx.) instruction. An address computed from the EA is associated with the reservation, and replaces any address previously associated with the reservation. EA must be a multiple of eight. If it is not, either the system alignment exception handler is invoked or the results are boundedly undefined.
This instruction is defined only for 64-bit implementations. Using it on a 32-bit implementation will cause the system illegal instruction error handler to be invoked.
| rD | Specifies source general-purpose register of stored data. |
| rA | Specifies source general-purpose register for EA calculation. |
| rB | Specifies source general-purpose register for EA calculation. |
