摘要： A second lower level cache receives an LCO command issued by a first lower level cache on an interconnect fabric. The LCO command indicates an address of a victim cache line to be castout from the first lower level cache and indicates that the second lower level cache is an intended destination of the victim cache line. The second lower level cache determines whether to accept the victim cache line from the first lower level cache based at least in part on the address of the victim cache line indicated by the LCO command. In response to determining not to accept the victim cache line, the second lower level cache provides a coherence response to the LCO command refusing the identified victim cache line. In response to determining to accept the victim cache line, the second lower level cache updates an entry corresponding to the identified victim cache line.

摘要： In response to a data request of a first of a plurality of processing units, the first processing unit selects a victim cache line to be castout from the lower level cache of the first processing unit and determines whether a mode is set. If not, the first processing unit issues on the interconnect fabric an LCO command identifying the victim cache line and indicating that a lower level cache is the intended destination. If the mode is set, the first processing unit issues a castout command with an alternative intended destination. In response to a coherence response to the LCO command indicating success of the LCO command, the first processing unit removes the victim cache line from its lower level cache, and the victim cache line is held elsewhere in the data processing system. The mode can be set to inhibit castouts to system memory, for example, for testing.

摘要： In response to a data request, a victim cache line is selected for castout from a lower level cache, and a target lower level cache of one of the plurality of processing units is selected. A determination is made whether the selected target lower level cache has provided more than a threshold number of retry responses to lateral castout (LCO) commands of the first lower level cache, and if so, a different target lower level cache is selected. The first processing unit thereafter issues a LCO command on the interconnect fabric. The LCO command identifies the victim cache line to be castout and indicates that the target lower level cache is an intended destination of the victim cache line. In response to a successful coherence response to the LCO command, the victim cache line is removed from the first lower level cache and held in the second lower level cache.
