The last level system cache can be partitioned to 32 different slices of which GPU has two slices preallocated. One slice is used for caching GPU buffers and the other slice is used for caching the GPU SMMU pagetables. This talks to the core system cache driver to acquire the slice handles, configure the SCID's to those slices and activates and deactivates the slices upon GPU power collapse and restore. Some support from the IOMMU driver is also needed to make use of the system cache to set the right TCR attributes. GPU then has the ability to override a few cacheability parameters which it does to override write-allocate to write-no-allocate as the GPU hardware does not benefit much from it. DOMAIN_ATTR_IO_PGTABLE_CFG is another domain level attribute used by the IOMMU driver for pagetable configuration which will be used to set a quirk initially to set the right attributes to cache the hardware pagetables into the system cache.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
