A method for controlling cache snoop and/or invalidate coherence traffic for specific caches based on transaction attributes is described. A memory management unit (MMU) determines one or more transaction attributes for a cache coherence transaction from a requesting processor. A routing module identifies a cachability domain and/or shareability domain based on the transaction attributes and routes the cache coherence transaction to one or more caches in the cachability domain and/or shareability domain. Instead of coherence traffic being routed to all caches on a coherence bus, coherence traffic is selectively routed based on transaction attributes such as an address space identifier (ASID), a virtual machine identifier (VMID), a secure bit (NS), a hypervisor identifier (HYP), etc. |
