Caching streams of memory requests
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for allocating cache resources according to page-level attribute values. In one implementation, the system includes one or more integrated client devices and a cache. Each client device is configured to generate at least a memory request. Each memory request has a respective physical address and a respective page descriptor of a page to which the physical address belongs. The cache is configured to cache memory requests for each of the one or more integrated client devices. The cache comprises a cache memory having multiple ways. The cache is configured to distinguish different memory requests using page-level attributes of respective page descriptors of the memory requests, and to allocate different portions of the cache memory to different respective memory requests.
