Interconnect circuitry and a method of operating the interconnect circuitry are provided, where the interconnect circuitry is suitable to couple at least two master devices to a memory, each comprising a local cache. Any access to the memory mediated by the interconnect circuitry is policed by a memory protection controller situated between the interconnect circuitry and the memory. The interconnect circuitry modifies a coherency type associated with a memory transaction received from one of the master devices to a type which ensures that when a modified version of a copy of a transaction target specified by the issuing master device is stored in a local cache of another master device an access to the transaction target in the memory must take place and therefore must be policed by the memory protection controller. |
