IM_CONFIG_MSR Bit Descriptions
Description
Reserved. (Default = 0)
Lock. Locks ways of the instruction cache from being allocated or replaced on an
instruction cache miss. If all ways are locked, caching is effectively disabled.
Bit 31: Ways 15 & 14
Bit 30: Ways 13 & 12
Bit 29: Ways 11 & 10
Bit 28: Ways 9 & 8
Bit 27: Ways 7 & 6
Bit 26: Ways 5 & 4
Bit 25: Ways 3 & 2
Bit 24: Ways 1 & 0
0: Not locked. (Default)
1: Locked
Reserved.
Dynamic Retention Test. Allow dynamic retention test for BIST of tag array.
0: Disable. (Default)
1: Enable.
Reserved. (Default = 0)
Aborts for Speculative Instruction Fetch Requests Enable. Enable aborts for specu-
lative IF requests for which there is an L1 TLB miss. IM passes the speculative informa-
tion from IF directly to DM. DM responds in one of four ways:
Returns page if it hits in the L2.
Returns abort if it does not hit in the L2 and it a speculative request.
Returns a retry if it does not hit in the L2 and it was a non-speculative request and the
pipe is not idle,
Does a tablewalk if it does not hit in the L2 and it was a non-speculative request and the
pipe is idle.
0: Disable. (Default)
1: Enable.
Instruction Memory Eviction Bus Enable. The default is to have IM evictions disabled.
This bit should be set when the L2 cache is enabled, since the L2 cache operates exclu-
sively in Victim mode.
0: Disable. Invalidate clean cache lines when replaced, do not evict. (Default)
1: Enable. Evict clean cache lines when they are replaced.
Reserved.
