OK,

As per Arm Cotex A55 TRM it supports cache.

As per the datasheet
[1] https://dn.odroid.com/S905X3/ODROID-C4/Docs/S905X3_Public_Datasheet_Hardkernel.pdf

TheCortex™-A55M subsystem of the chipisa high-performance,
low-power,ARM macro cell with an L1 and L3
cache sub system that provide full virtual memory capabilities.

Best way to let the Amlogic SoC members comment on the CPU  L1/ //L2/
L3 cache size.
But with the lack of pref PMU events we cannot test this feature.
