Hi Muzamil,

For detailed questions like these, the best place to look for answers is in
the code. You should be able to trace through the cache code to see what
happens for prefetch requests. Another way to do this is to add some
DPRINTF statements and use debug flags to trace what is happening in the
code. You could write a simple program to test this in SE mode, for
instance.

Cheers,
Jason
