No, the kernel is not missing anything. Download the source of the Linux

I guess the info shown on the terminal is misleading, I checked the 
"config.ini" file in the results directory and found this :


[system.l1_cntrl0.L1DcacheMemory]
type=RubyCache
assoc=2
is_icache=false
latency=3
replacement_policy=PSEUDO_LRU
size=131072
start_index_bit=4

[system.l1_cntrl0.L1IcacheMemory]
type=RubyCache
assoc=2
is_icache=false
latency=3
replacement_policy=PSEUDO_LRU
size=131072
start_index_bit=4

the size is 128KB= 131072 B ......do you think that the info in the terminal is 
misleading, or may be the info in config.ini ?? how should we know that


In order to know what is correct, what is not, you should do what I wrote in my previous email.
