    摘要: A system and method to provide injection of important data directly into a processor's cache location when that processor has previously indicated interest in the data. The memory subsystem at a target processor will determine if the memory address of data to be written to a memory location associated with the target processor is found in a processor cache of the target processor. If it is determined that the memory address is found in a target processor's cache, the data will be directly written to that cache at the same time that the data is being provided to a location in main memory.

    摘要: In a multinode data processing system in which the nodes communicate with one another via communication adapters over a network or switch, the adapters are provided with a dual register mechanism for tracking microcode task status. Upon the issuance of a disruptive command that requires attention from one of the nodes, the task status maintained in one register is copied to the snapshot register. As tasks within the adapter are completed, both registers are updated, thus providing a mechanism for the nodes to determine that all tasks active at the time of the disruptive command have completed. This means that the nodes now have a mechanism for determining, as soon as possible, that all tasks that are active when a disruptive command occurs have completed, thus allowing the data processing node to perform such operations as releasing system memory that is associated with the disruptive command, thus eliminating temporal overhead that can affect performance.
