The CCSIDR_EL1.{NumSets,Associativity,LineSize} fields are only for use
in conjunction with set/way cache maintenance and are not guaranteed to
represent the actual microarchitectural features of a design.
The architecture explicitly states:
| You cannot make any inference about the actual sizes of caches based
| on these parameters.
We currently use these fields to determine whether or the I-cache is
aliasing, which is bogus and known to break on some platforms. Instead,
assume the I-cache is always aliasing if it advertises a VIPT policy.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
