-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi folks,
I spotted the comment recently about not knowing how to
determine cache sizes on AIX and so I pinged (pung?) a
friend of mine at IBM in case he could find out.
Looks like he had some success (attached).. :-)
cheers!
Chris

Peter,
It's not all my own work, a modification of something I found on the
Internet. Tested on Power4 but I see no reason why it shouldn't work on
the other boxes.

Hi Pete,
Hope all is well.
Got this interesting request from a client of mine. Do you have any idea
how I can pursue this within IBM ?
Cheers,

Hiya Peter!
Long time no speak (or tweet!).
The hwloc folks were asked:
$ btw: are there any plans to fully support POWER6
$ and/or POWER7 running AIX6.1 for the future?
$ Actually we can get the topology right but cache
$ sizes are missing.
Their response was:
# obj->attr->cache.size = 0; /* TODO: ? */
#
# :)
#
# I don't know which AIX API can provide it.
Would you have any idea how to get the cache size
programaticaly from user space on AIX ?
cheers!
Chris
