Data defined caches for speculative and normal executions
Abstract:
A cache system, having: a first cache; a second cache; a configurable data bit; and a logic circuit coupled to a processor to control the caches based on the configurable bit. When the configurable bit is in a first state, the logic circuit is configured to: implement commands for accessing a memory system via the first cache, when an execution type is a first type; and implement commands for accessing the memory system via the second cache, when the execution type is a second type. When the configurable data bit is in a second state, the logic circuit is configured to: implement commands for accessing the memory system via the second cache, when the execution type is the first type; and implement commands for accessing the memory system via the first cache, when the execution type is the second type.
