From: Daniel Date: Sun, 11 Nov 2018 14:52:08 +0000 (+0100) Subject: mem-cache: Make StridePrefetcher use Replacement Policies X-Git-Tag: v19.0.0.0~1392 X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=153a33be851190acdec443264c3a1f1dfa44592a;p=gem5.git mem-cache: Make StridePrefetcher use Replacement Policies Previously StridePrefetcher was only able to use random replacement policy. This change allows all replacement policies to be applied to the pc table.
