OK, so say I stick a 4K cache between the L1 and L2 caches.
Seems kinda useless just based on sizes.
It is called a "victim buffer"
I had usually understood it that a "victim buffer" was typically glued
directly to the L1 cache.
So let me understand this: the analogous concept to a “victim buffer” in
the disk drive case (assuming the analogy makes sense at all), would be
something “glued directly” to the OS filesystem cache? That is, it would
be on the main RAM side, not on the drive side? In order for the analogy
to be truly analogous?
Just trying to get things clear here. Because, you know, some people like
to muddy the waters to distract from the fact that they don’t actually
understand what’s going on.
