Cache maintenance operations roadmap suggests there are plans to add Cache Block Operations by Index. Has there been any decision if these will be added to the spec? If so, what will be the instruction encoding of these instructions?

The CMO TG completed and ratified what was referred to as phase 1 work at the time. Per RVI procedures, that TG was wrapped up and any new and further CMO efforts are expected to be pursued via a new TG group chartered to specifically focus on a chosen goal or related set of goals. Some email discussion occurred about possible next topics for a follow-on "phase 2" TG, but no interested parties stepped forward to pursue creating a new TG to pursue any of those topics. So the door remains open for that to happen.

Hi Krishna,
I'm interested in that and any other unfinished work from the CMO TG, but did not have enough time available to try to lead/drive that effort (and still won't for at least the next few months). I would be happy to contribute in a smaller capacity if someone else is interested/available to lead the effort. Cheers, Phil P.S. your name sounds familiar; are you the Krishna Nagar that worked at MIPS a few years back? |
