[PATCH 4/4] MIPS: Allow L2 prefetch to be configured via debugfs

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

 



When debugging or examining the performance of a system it can be useful
to examine the effect of L2 prefetching. Provide an optional debugfs
entry to allow a user to enable or disable L2 prefetching.
