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.
