Abstract
A cache hit-miss prediction is determined for a memory access instruction using a predictor. The predictor includes a tracker for the memory access instruction. The tracker is used to provide a prediction confidence level of the cache hit-miss prediction for the memory access instruction. Using the tracker, the prediction confidence level of the cache hit-miss prediction is ascertained. Based on the prediction confidence level indicating the cache hit-miss prediction is to be used, the cache hit-miss prediction is provided to be used in instruction execution scheduling.
