A multiple-core processor providing flexible mapping of processor cores to cache banks. In one embodiment, a processor may include a cache including a number of cache banks. The processor may further include a number of processor cores configured to access the cache banks, as well as core/bank mapping logic coupled to the cache banks and processor cores. The core/bank mapping logic may be configurable to map a cache bank select portion of a memory address specified by a given one of the processor cores to any one of the cache banks.
