Moveable locked lines in a multi-level cache
A processor includes a multi-level cache hierarchy where a lock property is associated with a cache line. The cache line retains the lock property and may move back and forth within the cache hierarchy. The cache line may be evicted from the cache hierarchy after the lock property is removed.
