Abstract: Systems and methods for improving cache efficiency and utilization are disclosed. In one embodiment, a graphics processor includes processing resources to perform graphics operations and a cache controller of a cache coupled to the processing resources. The cache controller is configured to control cache priority by determining whether default settings or an instruction will control cache operations for the cache.
