◆ accessBlock() [1/2]

CacheBlk * FALRU::accessBlock	(	Addr	addr,
		bool	is_secure,
		Cycles &	lat,
		CachesMask *	in_cache_mask
	)

Access block and update replacement data.

May not succeed, in which case nullptr pointer is returned. This has all the implications of a cache access and should only be used as such. Returns tag lookup latency and the inCachesMask flags as a side effect.

Parameters

addr	The address to look for.
is_secure	True if the target memory space is secure.
lat	The latency of the tag lookup.
in_cache_mask	Mask indicating the caches in which the blk fits.

Returns: Pointer to the cache block.
