493 <h3>Selecting the C-EDF Cluster Size</h3>
494 <p>
495 The C-EDF plugin can create clusters based on the sharing of L2 or L3 caches. When the plugin is activated (see above), it configures clusters based on the value last written to <span class="src"> /proc/litmus/cluster_cache</span> (either &quot;L2&quot; or &quot;L3&quot;). Note that the desired level of shared caches must be written prior to activating C-EDF; changing cluster size while C-EDF is active is not supported.
