Abstract
Evicting queues from a memory of a direct memory access system includes monitoring a global eviction timer. From a plurality of descriptor lists stored in a plurality of entries of a cache memory, a set of candidate descriptor lists is determined. The set of candidate descriptor lists includes one or more of the plurality of descriptor lists in a prefetch only state. An eviction event can be detected by detecting a first eviction condition including a state of the global eviction timer and a second eviction condition. In response to detecting the eviction event, a descriptor list from the set of candidate descriptor lists is selected for eviction. The selected descriptor list can be evicted from the cache memory.
