ABSTRACT:
SMP computers systems can add to the first level cache a fill mode latch and achieve straightforward, high-performance loading of a writable cache code array that is part of a hierarchical cache structure.A new code array's write control elements include a control latch called "fill mode" for the BCE controls which when fill mode is active, then a disable is also active, since reads of the code array may not give accurate data when the array is not yet filled-up/fully valid. New mode follows the sequential steps which process code by:
