Abstract

A cache memory control device includes: a determination unit for determining whether or not a command provided from, for example, each core is to access cache memory during the execution of the command; and a path switch unit for putting a command determined as accessing the cache memory in pipeline processing, and outputting a command determined as not accessing the cache memory directly to an external unit without putting the command in the pipeline processing.
