CMIIW, but I thought was for inode cache and dentry cache.
Of course, my assumption was purely on the names starting wih I and D
repectively..... and I don't have a Linux box right now to go and
check it out
these options are under the processor options so they are not the
inode/dentry cache
AFAIR those are cache architectures .. ICACHE stands for instruction
cache and DCACHE stands for Data cache CMIIW
thanks
Yes that is true. ICACHE here is Instruction Cache, and DCACHE stands
for Data Cache. And they function as their name suggests. Can you throw
some light on inode/dentry cache and their functions please.
Thanks,
Manav
