CAT test spawns two processes into two different control groups with exclusive schemata. Both the processes alloc a buffer from memory matching their allocated LLC block size and flush the entire buffer out of caches. Since the processes are reading through the buffer only once during the measurement and initially all the buffer was flushed, the test isn't testing CAT. Rewrite the CAT test to allocated a buffer sized to half of LLC. Then perform a sequence of tests with different LLC block sizes starting from 1-bit CBM to half of the CBM bits. Flush the buffer before each test and read the buffer twice. Observe the LLC misses on the second read through the buffer. As the allocated LLC block gets larger and larger, the LLC misses will become smaller and smaller giving a strong signal on CAT working properly.
