Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to facilitate read-modify-write support in a victim cache. An example apparatus includes a first storage coupled to a controller, a second storage coupled to the controller and parallel coupled to the first storage, and a storage queue coupled to the first storage, the second storage, and to the controller, the storage queue to obtain a memory operation from the controller indicating an address and a first set of data, obtain a second set of data associated with the address from at least one of the first storage and the second storage, merge the first set of data and the second set of data to produce a third set of data, and provide the third set of data for writing to at least one of the first storage and the second storage.
