摘要： An apparatus and method for efficient handling of critical chunks. For example, one embodiment of an apparatus comprises a plurality of agents to perform a respective plurality of data processing functions, at least one of the data processing functions comprising transmitting and receiving chunks of data to and from a memory controller, respectively; a system agent to coordinate requests for transmitting and receiving the chunks of data to and from the memory controller, the system agent comprising: a memory for temporarily storing the chunks of data during transmission between the agents and the memory controller; and scheduling logic to prioritize critical chunks over non-critical chunks across multiple outstanding requests while ensuring that the non-critical chunks do not result in starvation.
