Description: These files exist in every cpu's cache index directories.
|
||||
There are currently 2 cache_disable_# files in each
|
||||
directory. Reading from these files on a supported
|
||||
processor will return that cache disable index value
|
||||
for that processor and node. Writing to one of these
|
||||
files will cause the specificed cache index to be disabled.

Description: Disable L3 cache indices
|
||||
|
||||
Currently, only AMD Family 10h Processors support cache index
|
||||
disable, and only for their L3 caches. See the BIOS and
|
||||
Kernel Developer's Guide at
|
||||
http://support.amd.com/us/Embedded_TechDocs/31116-Public-GH-BKDG_3-28_5-28-09.pdf
|
||||
for formatting information and other details on the
|
||||
cache index disable.
|
||||
Users: joachim.deguara@amd.com
|
||||
These files exist in every CPU's cache/index3 directory. Each
|
||||
cache_disable_{0,1} file corresponds to one disable slot which
|
||||
can be used to disable a cache index. Reading from these files
|
||||
on a processor with this functionality will return the currently
|
||||
disabled index for that node. There is one L3 structure per
|
||||
node, or per internal node on MCM machines. Writing a valid
|
||||
index to one of these files will cause the specificed cache
|
||||
index to be disabled.
|
||||
|
||||
All AMD processors with L3 caches provide this functionality.
