const char *dmi_cache_assoc_name(dmi_cache_assoc_t value);Description
The dmi_cache_assoc_t enumeration tells how the memory addresses map to the
lines of a cache, and is the type of the associativity field of
dmi_cache_t. The values are not in the order of the number of ways: the
specification has added them over time.
The dmi_cache_assoc_name function returns the printable name of a value, as
the command line tool shows it. The name is translated to the locale set with
dmi_set_locale, when the library is built with ICU4C support and has a
translation of it.
Values
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_UNSPEC-
Unspecified: the structure predates SMBIOS 2.1, or leaves the field at zero.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_OTHER-
Other associativity.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_UNKNOWN-
Unknown associativity.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_DIRECT-
Direct-mapped: each memory address has one place in the cache.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_2WAY-
2-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_4WAY-
4-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_FULL-
Fully associative: a memory address may go anywhere in the cache.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_8WAY-
8-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_16WAY-
16-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_12WAY-
12-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_24WAY-
24-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_32WAY-
32-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_48WAY-
48-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_64WAY-
64-way set-associative.
DMI_CACHE_ASSOC_20WAY-
20-way set-associative.
Return value
dmi_cache_assoc_name returns the name of the value, or nullptr if the
value has no name. The name is a static string, which must not be modified or
freed.
