A computer uses a 2-way set associative cache of size 128 KBytes with block (line) size of 32 Bytes. The cache accepts 32 bit addresses of the form $b_{31}b_{30} \dots b_2b_1b_0$ where $b_{31}$ is the most significant address and $b_0$ is the least significant address bit. Which bits are used by the cache controller for indexing into the cache directory?
