ABSTRACT:
A circuit comprising a plurality of first line buffers, an arbiter and a cache. The plurality of first line buffers may be configured to communicate on a plurality of first busses. The arbiter may be configured to perform an arbitration among the first line buffers. The cache block may be configured to (i) determine a particular policy of a plurality of policies in response to a first transaction request from one of the first line buffers winning the arbitration and (ii) generate a second transaction request based upon the first transaction request and the particular policy.
