Figure 8.2 Configuration of Instruction Cache (IC)
•
Tag
Stores the upper 19 bits of the 29-bit physical address of the data line to be cached. The tag is
not initialized by a power-on or manual reset.
•
V bit (validity bit)
Indicates that valid data is stored in the cache line. When this bit is 1, the cache line data is
valid. The V bit is initialized to 0 by a power-on reset, but retains its value in a manual reset.
•
U bit (dirty bit)
The U bit is set to 1 if data is written to the cache line while the cache is being used in copy-
back mode. That is, the U bit indicates a mismatch between the data in the cache line and the
data in external memory. The U bit is never set to 1 while the cache is being used in write-
through mode, unless it is modified by accessing the memory-mapped cache (see section 8.6,
Memory-Mapped Cache Configuration). The U bit is initialized to 0 by a power-on reset, but
retains its value in a manual reset.
