lwsync is sync with the bit 9 set. So it should be ok as it was a reserved field and was supposed to be ignored on the hardware which did not implement those bits and have it as a sync (but I could be wrong). The Power ISA 2.05 describes the sync/lwsync behavior but I can't find where it says it is ignored if not implemented. I bet you have to goto the ISA for those processors to find what is the current behavior for sure. Thanks, Andrew Pinski
