>Description:

The SS5/70 has these attributes for the CPU:
...
cache-line-size          00000020 
cache-nlines             00000200 
page-size                00001000 
dcache-line-size         00000010 
dcache-nlines            00000200 
dcache-associativity     00000001 
icache-line-size         00000020 
icache-nlines            00000200 
icache-associativity     00000001 
ncaches                  00000002 
mmu-nctx                 00000100 
...
And the SS5/170 has these attributes for the CPU:
...
ecache-line-size         00000020 
ecache-nlines            00004000 
ecache-associativity     00000001 
dcache-line-size         00000020 
dcache-nlines            00000200 
dcache-associativity     00000001 
icache-line-size         00000020 
icache-nlines            00000200 
icache-associativity     00000001 
ncaches                  00000002 
mmu-nctx                 00000100 
...
dcache = data cache
icache = instruction cache
ecache = external (L2) cache (?)
cache = external (L2) cache (?)

Whilst NetBSD reports the instruction/data cache properly, it
seemingly ignores the `cache' on the ss5/70 (I'll update this
with the results of booting netbsd on the ss5/170 later).
