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.
