default MN10300_CACHE_WBACK | ||
help | ||
This option determines the caching mode for the kernel. | ||
|
||
Write-Back caching mode involves the all reads and writes causing | ||
the affected cacheline to be read into the cache first before being | ||
operated upon. Memory is not then updated by a write until the cache | ||
is filled and a cacheline needs to be displaced from the cache to | ||
make room. Only at that point is it written back. | ||
|
||
Write-Through caching only fetches cachelines from memory on a | ||
read. Writes always get written directly to memory. If the affected | ||
cacheline is also in cache, it will be updated too. | ||
|
||
The final option is to turn of caching entirely. | ||
