trans-splitter

VIRTUTECH CONFIDENTIAL Previous - Up - Next

Provided by: g-cache
Class Hierarchy: conf-object → log-object → trans-splitter
Interfaces Implemented: log_object, timing_model
Description: A trans-splitter object should be inserted between two caches if the higher-level cache has a larger cache line size than the lower-level cache, or between the processor and the id-splitter object if you have a processor that can do unaligned accesses or accesses larger than one cache line. It splits cacheable transactions that span more than one naturally aligned next-cache-line-size bytes big lines into multiple transactions that each fit within one line.
