Subject: [PATCH 02/16] i386/cpu: Add descriptor 0x49 for CPUID 0x2 encoding
Date: Fri, 20 Jun 2025 17:27:20 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250620092734.1576677-3-zhao1.liu@intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250620092734.1576677-1-zhao1.liu@intel.com>

The legacy_l2_cache (2nd-level cache: 4 MByte, 16-way set associative,
64 byte line size) corresponds to descriptor 0x49, but at present
cpuid2_cache_descriptors doesn't support descriptor 0x49 because it has
multiple meanings.

The 0x49 is necessary when CPUID 0x2 and 0x4 leaves have the consistent
cache model, and use legacy_l2_cache as the default l2 cache.

Therefore, add descriptor 0x49 to represent general l2 cache.
