I'd expect that a well written application wouldn't care whether you indexed "C" style from 0 or "Fortran" style from 1 ... just so long as you provided some sanity that lower numbered levels are closer to the cpu, and bigger numbers are further away. Are there any applications that look at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cache*? This like it might require some care to get right (different architectures providing from 0 (unreported) to 3 (or more?) levels of cache ... with split/unified options all over the map at each level. -Tony - : send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
