Hey,

I am trying to implement a split cache simulator. My main aim is to separate clean cache and dirty cache. However, for caches we need the size must be power of 2. Lets say unified cache is 64k. Now I can split it as (say) 8k and 56k or any other configuration. My question is how to deal with 56k. How to make that. One possible solution is to change the set associativity of 56k cache. However, is there any other solution in which I dont have to change the associativity.??
Please help me.

Thanks and Regards.
Abhishek
