Zusammenfassung: | A cache control method controls data sharing conditions in a processor system having multi-level caches that are in an inclusion relationship. The cache control method indexes an upper level cache by a real address and indexes a lower level cache by a virtual address, and prevents a real address that is referred by a plurality of different virtual addresses from being registered a plurality of times within the same cache. A plurality of virtual addresses are registrable within the upper level cache, so as to relax the data sharing conditions. |
