Abstract
Storage circuitry is provided, that is designed to form part of a memory hierarchy. The storage circuitry comprises receiver circuitry for receiving a request to obtain data from the memory hierarchy. Transfer circuitry causes the data to be stored at a selected destination in response to the request, wherein the selected destination is selected in dependence on at least one selection condition. Tracker circuitry tracks the request while the request is unresolved. If at least one selection condition is met then the destination is the storage circuitry and otherwise the destination is other storage circuitry in the memory hierarchy.
