ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a program control device for managing cache information and generating an optimum linker option to thereby improve use efficiency of a cache memory. A cache line information generating section is formed which, when a target program is loaded into a main memory, generates cache line information. Therefore, the cache line information having memory address information and symbolic information in a function of the target program in a cache line can be displayed with cache performance information. Accordingly, functions causing a cache conflict can be easily specified and rearranged by a linker option so as not to share the same cache line. As a result, the cache misses can be reduced.
