Re: [Gems-users] L3 cache

[Mike Marty <mikem@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

If you want an L3 cache with identical interleavings to main memory, just 
modify MOESI_CMP_directory-dir.sm or MSI_MOSI_CMP_directory-dir.sm.
If you want a general L3 cache controller with any interleavings, then you 
will have to create a new -L3cache.sm controller and design a coherence 
protocol that operates with another level in the cache hierarchy.
There is no quick recipe.  It all depends on what you want to simulate.
