Abstract

A processor includes a processing core to execute an application comprising instructions encoding a transaction with a persistent memory via a near memory cache, wherein the near memory cache comprises a cache line comprising an identifier associated with the transaction and a status flag indicating whether the cache line is committed or uncommitted, and a cache controller operatively coupled to the near memory cache to determine, based on the status flag, what operation is to be performed with respect to contents of the cache line.
