Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to circuitry to implement a duplication resistant on-die irregular data prefetcher are described.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to throttling a code fetch for speculative code paths are described. In an embodiment, a first storage structure stores a reference to a code line in response to a request to be received from a cache. A second storage structure to store a reference to the code line in response to an update to an Instruction Dispatch Queue (IDQ). Logic circuitry controls additional code line fetch operations based at least in part on a comparison of a number of ongoing speculative code fetches and a determination that the code line is speculative. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus relating to de-prioritizing speculative code lines in on-chip caches are described. In an embodiment, logic circuitry determines whether a storage structure includes a reference to a code miss request prior to transmission of the code miss request to a shared cache. The logic circuitry causes de-prioritization of a code line, corresponding to the code miss request, in the shared cache in response to an absence of the reference in the storage structure. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

Abstract: An embodiment of an integrated circuit may comprise a core, a first level core cache memory coupled to the core, a shared core cache memory coupled to the core, a first cache controller coupled to the core and communicatively coupled to the first level core cache memory, a second cache controller coupled to the core and communicatively coupled to the shared core cache memory, and circuitry coupled to the core and communicatively coupled to the first cache controller and the second cache controller to determine if a workload has a large code footprint, and, if so determined, partition N ways of the shared core cache memory into first and second chunks of ways with the first chunk of M ways reserved for code cache lines from the workload and the second chunk of N minus M ways reserved for data cache lines from the workload, where N and M are positive integer values and N minus M is greater than zero. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.
