    • A method and apparatus for snooping both cache memory and associated buffer queues in a cache subsystem arrangement. Since there are usually several requests for cache data being handled at any given time under high performance operation of multiple processors, a cache arrangement includes at least one buffer queue for storing the address of the cache data line and the status of the cache data line, which facilitate keeping track of the data requests and handling them efficiently. In response to a snoop request, a snoop address is compared to the address stored in the buffer queue so as to provide a positive comparison result if the snoop address matches the address stored in the buffer queue, thereby indicating a snoop hit condition. The buffer queue of the cache arrangement further has a snoop hit bit for storing a record of the positive comparison result that indicates the snoop hit condition. Even if there is still a pending transaction involving the buffer queue, the snoop request of the cache is satisfied once the comparison result has been stored in the snoop hit bit of the buffer queue, thereby keeping the cache high performance for local code while at the same time providing efficient support for snoop requests.
    • 一种用于在高速缓存子系统布置中窥探缓存存储器和相关联的缓冲器队列的方法和装置。 由于在多个处理器的高性能操作下,在任何给定时间处理高速缓存数据通常需要多个请求,所以高速缓存装置包括用于存储高速缓存数据线的地址和高速缓存数据线的状态的至少一个缓冲器队列, 这有助于跟踪数据请求并有效地处理它们。 响应于窥探请求,将窥探地址与存储在缓冲器队列中的地址进行比较,以便如果窥探地址与存储在缓冲器队列中的地址匹配,则提供肯定的比较结果,从而指示窥探命中条件。 高速缓存装置的缓冲器队列还具有窥探命中位,用于存储指示窥探命中条件的肯定比较结果的记录。 即使仍然存在涉及缓冲区队列的待处理事务,一旦将比较结果存储在缓冲区队列的窥探命中中,缓存的窥探请求便被满足,从而保持高速缓存本地代码的性能。 同时为窥探请求提供有效的支持。
