Abstract

A computer implemented method to operate different processor cache levels of a cache hierarchy for a processor with pipelined execution is suggested. The cache hierarchy comprises at least a lower hierarchy level entity and a higher hierarchy level entity. The method comprises: sending a fetch request to the cache hierarchy; detecting a miss event from a lower hierarchy level entity; sending a fetch request to a higher hierarchy level entity; and scheduling at least one write pass.
