Abstract
A technique includes using a cache controller of an integrated circuit to control a cache including cached data content and associated cache metadata. The technique includes storing the metadata and the cached data content off of the integrated circuit and organizing the storage of the metadata relative to the cached data content such that a bus operation initiated by the cache controller to target the cached data content also targets the associated metadata.
