[PATCH]: IP32: Enable L3 Cache on RM7000 Processor

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The attached patch enables the tertiary cache present on RM7K CPUs.

It does this by miming the behavior for the secondary cache setup. Been using it for several kernel versions with no noticeable ill effects, though I haven't run any benchmarks to determine if it offers any noticeable improvement.
