Example: -xcache=16/32/4:1024/32/1 specifies the following:
-xchip= c
(Solaris 2.x only) The -xchip= c option specifies the target processor for use by
the optimizer.
c must be one of: generic , old , super , super2 , micro , micro2 , hyper ,
hyper2 , powerup , ultra
Although this option can be used alone, it is part of the expansion of the -
target option; its primary use is to provide a value supplied by the -target
option.
This option specifies timing properties by specifying the target processor.
Some effects are:
• The ordering of instructions, that is, scheduling
•
The way the compiler uses branches
•
The instructions to use in cases where semantically equivalent
alternatives are available
Level 1 cache has:
16K bytes
32 bytes line size
4-way associativity Level 2 cache has:
1024K bytes
32 bytes line size
Direct mapping associativity
Table 3-5 The -xchip Values
Value Meaning
generic Use timing properties for good performance on most SPARCs.
This is the default value that directs the compiler to use the best timing
properties for good performance on most SPARC processors, without
major performance degradation on any of them.
old Use timing properties of pre-SuperSPARC™ processors.
super Use timing properties of the SuperSPARC chip.
super2 Use timing properties of the SuperSPARC II chip.
micro Use timing properties of the MicroSPARC™ chip.
