![]() Currently, by default, the cache topology is encoded as: 1. i/d cache is shared in one core. 2. L2 cache is shared in one core. 3. L3 cache is shared in one die. This default general setting has caused a misunderstanding, that is, the cache topology is completely equated with a specific cpu topology, such as the connection between L2 cache and core level, and the connection between L3 cache and die level. In fact, the settings of these topologies depend on the specific platform and are not static. For example, on Alder Lake-P, every four Atom cores share the same L2 cache. Thus, we should explicitly define the corresponding cache topology for different cache models to increase scalability. Except legacy_l2_cache_cpuid2 (its default topo level is CPU_TOPO_LEVEL_UNKNOW), explicitly set the corresponding topology level for all other cache models. In order to be compatible with the existing cache topology, set the CPU_TOPO_LEVEL_CORE level for the i/d cache, set the CPU_TOPO_LEVEL_CORE level for L2 cache, and set the CPU_TOPO_LEVEL_DIE level for L3 cache. The field for CPUID[4].EAX[bits 25:14] or CPUID[0x8000001D].EAX[bits 25:14] will be set based on CPUCacheInfo.share_level.
