Abstract
The execution or processing of an application can be adapted or modified based on a level of a cache in which a requested data block resides, by extracting level information from a cache hierarchy. When a request for a data block is made by a core to a cache memory system, the cache memory system extracts a level of a cache memory in which the data block resides from information stored in the cache memory system. The core is informed of the level of the cache memory in which the data block resides, and uses this information to adapt its processing of the application.
