摘要： A data processing system includes a first processing unit and a second processing unit coupled by an interconnect fabric. The first processing unit has a first processor core and associated first upper and first lower level caches, and the second processing unit has a second processor core and associated second upper and lower level caches. In response to a data request, a victim cache line is selected for castout from the first lower level cache. The first processing unit issues on the interconnect fabric a lateral castout (LCO) command that identifies the victim cache line to be castout from the first lower level cache and indicates that a lower level cache is an intended destination. In response to a coherence response indicating success of the LCO command, the victim cache line is removed from the first lower level cache and held in the second lower level cache.

摘要： A data processing system includes at least a first processing node having an input/output (I/O) controller and a second processing including a memory controller for a memory. The memory controller receives, in order, pipelined first and second DMA write operations from the I/O controller, where the first and second DMA write operations target first and second addresses, respectively. In response to the second DMA write operation, the memory controller establishes a state of a domain indicator associated with the second address to indicate an operation scope including the first processing node. In response to the memory controller receiving a data access request specifying the second address and having a scope excluding the first processing node, the memory controller forces the data access request to be reissued with a scope including the first processing node based upon the state of the domain indicator associated with the second address.

摘要： A cache coherent data processing system includes at least first and second coherency domains. In a first cache memory within the first coherency domain of the data processing system, a coherency state field associated with a storage location and an address tag is set to a first data-invalid coherency state that indicates that the address tag is valid and that the storage location does not contain valid data. In response to snooping a data-invalid state update request, the first cache memory updates the coherency state field from the first data-invalid coherency state to a second data-invalid coherency state that indicates that the address tag is valid, that the storage location does not contain valid data, and that a memory block associated with the address tag is likely cached within the first coherency domain.

摘要： According to one embodiment, a method of coherency management in a data processing system includes holding a cache line in an upper level cache memory in an exclusive ownership coherency state and thereafter removing the cache line from the upper level cache memory and transmitting a castout request for the cache line from the upper level cache memory to a lower level cache memory. The castout request includes an indication of a shared ownership coherency state. In response to the castout request, the cache line is placed in the lower level cache memory in a coherency state determined in accordance with the castout request.

摘要： A heterogeneous processing element model is provided where I/O devices look and act like processors. In order to be treated like a processor, an I/O processing element, or other special purpose processing element, must follow some rules and have some characteristics of a processor, such as address translation, security, interrupt handling, and exception processing, for example. The heterogeneous processing element model puts special purpose processing elements on the same playing field as processors, from a programming perspective, operating system perspective, power perspective, as the processors. The operating system can get work to a security engine, for example, in the same way it does to a processor.

摘要： A cache, system and method for reducing the number of rejected snoop requests. An incoming snoop request is entered in the first available latch in a pipeline of latches in a stall/reorder unit if the stall/reorder unit is not full. The entered snoop request is dispatched to a selector upon entering a bottom latch in the pipeline. The stall/reorder unit is not informed as to whether the dispatched snoop request is accepted by an arbitration mechanism for several clock cycles after the dispatch occurred. A copy of the dispatched snoop request is stored in a top latch in an overrun pipeline of latches in the first unit upon dispatching the snoop request. By maintaining information about the snoop request, the snoop request may be dispatched again to the selector in case the dispatched snoop request was rejected thereby increasing the chance that the snoop request will ultimately be accepted.

摘要： Scrubbing logic in a local coherency domain issues to at least one cache hierarchy in a remote coherency domain a domain reset request that forces invalidation of any cached copy of a target memory block then held in said remote coherency domain. A coherency response to said domain reset request is received. In response to said coherency response indicating that said target memory block is not cached in said remote coherency domain, a domain indication of said local coherency domain is updated to indicate that said target memory block is cached, if at all, only within said local coherency domain.

摘要： A method of handling a stuck bit in a directory of a cache memory, by defining multiple binary encodings to indicate a defective cache state, detecting an error in a tag stored in a member of the directory (wherein the tag at least includes an address field, a state field and an error-correction field), determining that the error is associated with a stuck bit of the directory member, and writing new state information to the directory member which is selected from one of the binary encodings based on a field location of the stuck bit within the directory member. The multiple binary encodings may include a first binary encoding when the stuck bit is in the address field, a second binary encoding when the stuck bit is in the state field, and a third binary encoding when the stuck bit is in the error-correction field. The new state information may also further be selected based on the value of the stuck bit, e.g., a state bit corresponding to the stuck bit is assigned a bit value from the new state information which matches the value of the stuck bit.

摘要： A cache coherent data processing system includes at least a first cache memory supporting a first processing unit and a second cache memory supporting a second processing unit. The first cache memory includes a cache array and a cache directory of contents of the cache array. In response to the first cache memory detecting on an interconnect a broadcast operation that specifies a request address, the first cache memory determines from the operation a type of the operation and a coherency state associated with the request address. In response to determining the type and the coherency state, the first cache memory filters out the broadcast operation without accessing the cache directory.
