/* The data cache could lead to incorrect results because it doesn't

   know about volatile variables, thus making it impossible to debug

   functions which use memory mapped I/O devices.  Set the nocache

   memory region attribute in those cases.

   In general the dcache speeds up performance, some speed improvement

   comes from the actual caching mechanism, but the major gain is in

   the reduction of the remote protocol overhead; instead of reading

   or writing a large area of memory in 4 byte requests, the cache

   bundles up the requests into 32 byte (actually LINE_SIZE) chunks.

   Reducing the overhead to an eighth of what it was.  This is very

   obvious when displaying a large amount of data,

   eg, x/200x 0

   caching     |   no    yes

   ----------------------------

   first time  |   4 sec  2 sec improvement due to chunking

   second time |   4 sec  0 sec improvement due to caching

   The cache structure is unusual, we keep a number of cache blocks

   (DCACHE_SIZE) and each one caches a LINE_SIZEed area of memory.

   Within each line we remember the address of the line (always a

   multiple of the LINE_SIZE) and a vector of bytes over the range.

   There's another vector which contains the state of the bytes.

   ENTRY_BAD means that the byte is just plain wrong, and has no

   correspondence with anything else (as it would when the cache is

   turned on, but nothing has been done to it.

   ENTRY_DIRTY means that the byte has some data in it which should be

   written out to the remote target one day, but contains correct

   data.

   ENTRY_OK means that the data is the same in the cache as it is in

   remote memory.

   The ENTRY_DIRTY state is necessary because GDB likes to write large

   lumps of memory in small bits.  If the caching mechanism didn't

   maintain the DIRTY information, then something like a two byte

   write would mean that the entire cache line would have to be read,

   the two bytes modified and then written out again.  The alternative

   would be to not read in the cache line in the first place, and just

   write the two bytes directly into target memory.  The trouble with

   that is that it really nails performance, because of the remote

   protocol overhead.  This way, all those little writes are bundled

   up into an entire cache line write in one go, without having to

   read the cache line in the first place.

 */

/* NOTE: Interaction of dcache and memory region attributes

   As there is no requirement that memory region attributes be aligned

   to or be a multiple of the dcache page size, dcache_read_line() and

   dcache_write_line() must break up the page by memory region.  If a

   chunk does not have the cache attribute set, an invalid memory type

   is set, etc., then the chunk is skipped.  Those chunks are handled

   in target_xfer_memory() (or target_xfer_memory_partial()).

   This doesn't occur very often.  The most common occurance is when

   the last bit of the .text segment and the first bit of the .data

   segment fall within the same dcache page with a ro/cacheable memory

   region defined for the .text segment and a rw/non-cacheable memory

   region defined for the .data segment. */
