Abstract
A processor for implementing a last use cache policy is configured to access data in a portion of a cache, determine that the data in the portion of the cache is no longer needed, and mark the data in the portion of the cache as non-dirty responsive to the determining that the data in the portion of the cache is no longer needed. The marking of the data as non-dirty is indicative that the data in the portion of the cache is not to be evicted from the cache to a memory.
