Abstract:
A method and apparatus for partitioning a cache includes determining an allocation of a subcache out of a plurality of subcaches within the cache for association with a compute unit out of a plurality of compute units. Data is processed by the compute unit, and the compute unit evicts a line. The evicted line is written to the subcache associated with the compute unit.
