Abstract

Proving for a framework for propagating priorities to a memory subsystem in a computing system environment is disclosed herein. By way of example, a memory access handler is provided for managing memory access requests and determining associated priorities. The memory access handler includes logic configured for propagating memory requests and the associated priorities to lower levels of a computer hierarchy. A memory subsystem receives the memory access requests and the priorities.
