| * Andestech L2 cache Controller |
| |
| The level-2 cache controller plays an important role in reducing memory latency |
| for high performance systems, such as thoese designs with AndesCore processors. |
| Level-2 cache controller in general enhances overall system performance |
| signigicantly and the system power consumption might be reduced as well by |
| reducing DRAM accesses. |
| |
| This binding specifies what properties must be available in the device tree |
| representation of an Andestech L2 cache controller. |
| |
| Required properties: |
| - compatible: |
| Usage: required |
| Value type: <string> |
| Definition: "andestech,atl2c" |
| - reg : Physical base address and size of cache controller's memory mapped |
| - cache-unified : Specifies the cache is a unified cache. |
| - cache-level : Should be set to 2 for a level 2 cache. |
| |
| * Example |
| |
| cache-controller@e0500000 { |
| compatible = "andestech,atl2c"; |
| reg = <0xe0500000 0x1000>; |
| cache-unified; |
| cache-level = <2>; |
| }; |
