Can one make use of the IDMA engine to transfer data from the 4M shared SL2 and the 512K individual core L2? I am venturing not as it is not local to the corePac. However, code in SL2 caches in L1P.
Generally speaking, is the interaction between L2 and L1P/L1D the same as the interaction between SL2 and L1P/L1D?
Whay about Error correction and detection, does that work for the 4M shared L2 or is that just for L2/L1P etc? What kind of speed impact does enabling this EDC capability have on the performance generally speaking?
thanks,
Aamir
