Cache self-clean engine
Abstract:
The present invention relates Control circuitry that includes a circuit configured to receive a system level cache (SLC) dirty-set request comprising a dirty set flag, a memory address, and an address of a cache line (LA) in a SLC data array. The circuitry converts the memory address to a dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) page address (PA) which identifies a DRAM bank and a DRAM page and identifies either a hit, or no hit, is present according to whether the DRAM PA matches with PA address in any valid entry in a dirty line links cache (DLL$).
