Cache Extended Memory
If enabled, this feature will allow the data stored in the extended memory area
to be cached (written) into a buffer, a storage area in Static DROM (SDROM) or
written into L1, L2, L3 cache inside the CPU to speed up CPU operations. Select
Uncached to disable this function. Select Write Through to allow data to be cached
into the buffer and written into the system memory at the same time. Select Write
Protect to prevent data from being written into the system memory area above 1MB.
Select Write Back to allow CPU to write data back directly from the buffer without
writing data to the System Memory for fast CPU data processing and operation.
The options are Uncached, Write Through, Write Protect, and Write Back.
