Qwaey: This is an update from the research we were doing on this matter, hopefully the following information provides the details you were looking for:

 

Level 1 cache size - 6 x 32 KB 4-way set associative instruction caches

 

6 x 32 KB 8-way set associative data caches

 

Level 2 cache size - 6 x 256 KB 8-way set associative caches

 

Level 3 cache size- 12 MB 16-way set associative shared cache

 

 

Any questions, please let me know.
