Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms for adaptively changing between replacement policies for selecting lines of a cache for eviction. In an embodiment, evaluation logic determines a value of a performance metric which is for writes to a non-volatile memory. Based on the determined value of the performance metric, a parameter value of a replacement policy is determined. In another embodiment, cache replacement logic performs a selection of a line of cache for data eviction, where the selection is in response to the policy unit providing an indication of the determined parameter value.
