+Description:   Disable L3 cache indices
+
+               These files exist in every CPU's cache/index3 directory. Each
+               cache_disable_{0,1} file corresponds to one disable slot which
+               can be used to disable a cache index. Reading from these files
+               on a processor with this functionality will return the currently
+               disabled index for that node. There is one L3 structure per
+               node, or per internal node on MCM machines. Writing a valid
+               index to one of these files will cause the specificed cache
+               index to be disabled.
+
+               All AMD processors with L3 caches provide this functionality.
