Claims24
A method comprising
- for each memory location in a set of memory locations associated with a thread, setting an indication associated with the memory location to request a signal if data from the memory location is evicted from a cache;
- and
- in response to the signal, reloading the set of memory locations into the cache.
A system comprising
- a processor;
- a memory communicatively coupled with the processor, further comprising a program thread (thread), where for each memory location in a set of memory locations associated with the thread, the thread is to set an indication associated with the memory location to request a signal if data from the memory location is evicted from a cache;
- and
- in response to the signal, to reload the set of memory locations into the cache.
