Abstract

An apparatus comprises associating circuitry to associate an indirect prefetch condition with a memory access request when hint information indicates that the data to be accessed in response to the memory access request is address indicating data which is to be used to generate a second address for a subsequent memory access request. A second address can be generated using the address indicating data, and a prefetch memory access request can be issued to seek to make data at the second address available in the associated cache.
