Refer to Notes.md to see my notes while studying about cache memory.

This is the handout directory for the CS:APP Cache Lab.

Running the autograders:

---

• Before running the autograders, compile your code:

  linux> make

• Check the correctness of your simulator: linux> ./test-csim

• Check the correctness and performance of your transpose functions: linux> ./test-trans -M 32 -N 32 linux> ./test-trans -M 64 -N 64 linux> ./test-trans -M 61 -N 67

• Check everything at once (this is the program that your instructor runs): linux> ./driver.py

Files:

---

You will modifying and handing in these two files

• csim.c Your cache simulator
• trans.c Your transpose function

Tools for evaluating your simulator and transpose function

• Makefile Builds the simulator and - -tools
• README This file
• driver.py* The driver program, runs test-csim and test-trans
• cachelab.c Required helper functions
• cachelab.h Required header file
• csim-ref* The executable reference cache simulator
• test-csim* Tests your cache simulator
• test-trans.c Tests your transpose function
• tracegen.c Helper program used by test-trans
• traces/ Trace files used by test-csim.c
