+ default MN10300_CACHE_WBACK
+ help
+ This option determines the caching mode for the kernel.
+
+ Write-Back caching mode involves the all reads and writes causing
+ the affected cacheline to be read into the cache first before being
+ operated upon. Memory is not then updated by a write until the cache
+ is filled and a cacheline needs to be displaced from the cache to
+ make room. Only at that point is it written back.
+
+ Write-Through caching only fetches cachelines from memory on a
+ read. Writes always get written directly to memory. If the affected
+ cacheline is also in cache, it will be updated too.
+
+ The final option is to turn of caching entirely.
