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.
If no cache level matches, HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_UNKNOWN is returned.
If cachetype
is HWLOC_OBJ_CACHE_UNIFIED, the depth of the unique matching unified cache level is returned.
If cachetype
is HWLOC_OBJ_CACHE_DATA or HWLOC_OBJ_CACHE_INSTRUCTION, either a matching cache, or a unified cache is returned.
If cachetype
is -1
, it is ignored and multiple levels may match. The function returns either the depth of a uniquely matching level or HWLOC_TYPE_DEPTH_MULTIPLE.
