Abstract
A system, method, and a computer readable for inserting data into a cache memory based on information in a semi-synchronous memory copy instruction are disclosed. The method comprises determining a start of a semi-synchronous memory copy operation. The semi-synchronous memory copy operation is checked for a given value in at least one cache injection bit. In response to the given value in the cache injection bit, a predefined number of lines of destination data is copied into at least one level of cache memory.
