Abstract
Devices and techniques to reschedule a memory request that has failed when a thread is executing in a processor are described herein. When a memory request for a thread is denied at a point in the execution pipeline of the processor beyond a thread rescheduling point, the thread can be placed into a memory response path of the processor. An indicator that a register write-back will not occur for the thread can also be provided. Then, the thread can be rescheduled with other threads in the memory response path.
