Abstract
A cache system includes a processor chip to receive a processing unit address. The cache system also includes a comparator to compare the processing unit address to an address information stored in an allocated tag subset of a tag memory of the processor chip to determine whether the processing unit address matches the address information. The cache system further includes a mapping device to map the portion of the address information to an external memory data, temporarily stored in an allocated data memory subset and a corresponding data memory set of a data memory in the processor. Furthermore, the cache system includes a stacking loop to prioritize the allocated tag subset and a corresponding tag set when the processing unit address matches the address information.
