STRUCT NODE_CACHE_ATTRS(9)

πŸ“¦ version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

πŸ’– NAME πŸ’–

okay bestie, this is the Kernel API Manual page for struct node_cache_attrs(9) ✨ and it's literally system memory caching attributes πŸ’… that's the whole name, no cap.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

okay so the struct is giving exactly this, bestie, and every field is here to slay:

       struct node_cache_attrs {
           enum cache_indexing indexing;
           enum cache_write_policy write_policy;
           u64 size;
           u16 line_size;
           u8 level;
           u16 address_mode;
        };

πŸŽ€ Members πŸŽ€

okay so the members are doing main character energy one by one:

  • indexing β€” the ways memory blocks may be placed in cache. that's the whole job πŸ’…
  • write_policy β€” write back or write through policy, pick your fighter.
  • size β€” total size of cache in bytes, big number energy.
  • line_size β€” number of bytes fetched on a cache miss, very fetch.
  • level β€” the cache hierarchy level, like which floor of the cache mall.
  • address_mode β€” the address mode. short, mysterious, important.
