Encoding for L1 data cache tag, L1 data cache data, and L1 TLB data
The core data cache consists of a 4-way set-associative structure.
The encoding, which is set in
Rd
in the appropriate
MCR
instruction, used to locate the required cache data
entry for tag, data, and TLB memory is shown in the following tables. It is similar for both the tag RAM,
data RAM, and TLB access. Data RAM access includes an additional field to locate the appropriate
doubleword in the cache line.
Tag RAM encoding includes an additional field to select which one of the two cache channels must be
used to perform any access.
