Abstract

Various systems and methods for queue management in computer memory are described herein. A system for implementing a zero thrash cache queue manager includes a processor subsystem to: receive a memory access request for a queue; write data to a queue tail cache line in a cache when the memory access request is to add data to the queue, the queue tail cache line protected from being evicted from the cache; and read data from a current queue head cache line in the cache when the memory access request is to remove data from the queue, the current queue head cache line protected from being evicted from the cache.
