14.6.2 Reset Effects on SRAM Accesses
If a reset event asserts during a read or write operation to SRAM, the completion of that access depends 
on the cycle at which the reset occurs. Data read from or written to SRAM before the reset event occurred 
is retained, and no other address locations are accessed or changed.
NOTE
Standby memory can contain the previous data values if a reset occurs while 
cache is running in copy back mode. 
14.7 Initialization and Application Information
To use the SRAM, the ECC must check all bits that require initialization after power on. Use a 64-bit 
cache-inhibited write to each SRAM location in the application initialization code to initialize the SRAM 
array. All writes must specify an even number of registers performed on 64-bit word-aligned boundaries. 
If the write is not the entire 64-bits (8-, 16-, or 32-bits), a read / modify / write operation is generated that 
checks the ECC value upon the read. Refer to Section 14.6, “SRAM ECC Mechanism.”
NOTE
You must initialize SRAM, even if the application does not use ECC 
reporting.
