Abstract
Technologies are provided in embodiments to dynamically fill a shared cache. At least some embodiments include determining that data requested in a first request for the data by a first processing device is not stored in a cache shared by the first processing device and a second processing device, where a dynamic fill policy is applicable to the first request. Embodiments further include determining to deallocate, based at least in part on a threshold, an entry in a buffer, the entry containing information corresponding to the first request for the data. Embodiments also include sending a second request for the data to a system memory, and sending the data from the system memory to the first processing device. In more specific embodiments, the data from the system memory is not written to the cache based, at least in part, on the determination to deallocate the entry.
