Abstract
A system for pre-fetching a data frame from a system memory to a cache memory includes a processor, a queue manager, and a pre-fetch manager. The processor issues a de-queue request associated with the data frame. The queue manager receives the de-queue request, identifies a frame descriptor associated with the data frame, and generates a pre-fetch hint signal. The pre-fetch manager receives the pre-fetch hint signal and generates a pre-fetch signal and enables the cache memory to pre-fetch the data frame. Subsequently, the queue manager de-queues the frame descriptor. The processor receives the frame descriptor and reads the data frame from the cache memory.
