Find the depth of cache objects matching cache level and type.
Return the depth of the topology level that contains cache objects whose attributes match cachelevel and cachetype.
This function is identical to calling hwloc_get_type_depth() with the corresponding type such as HWLOC_OBJ_L1ICACHE, except that it may also return a Unified cache when looking for an instruction cache.
- Returns
- the depth of the unique matching unified cache level is returned if
cachetype is HWLOC_OBJ_CACHE_UNIFIED.
-
the depth of either a matching cache level or a unified cache level if
cachetype is HWLOC_OBJ_CACHE_DATA or HWLOC_OBJ_CACHE_INSTRUCTION.
-
the depth of the matching level if
cachetype is -1 but only one level matches.
-
HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE if
cachetype is -1 but multiple levels match.
-
HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_UNKNOWN if no cache level matches.
