The present disclosure relates to caches, methods, and systems for using an invalidation data area. The cache can include a journal configured for tracking data blocks, and an invalidation data area configured for tracking invalidated data blocks associated with the data blocks tracked in the journal. The invalidation data area can be on a separate cache region from the journal. A method for invalidating a cache block can include determining a journal block tracking a memory address associated with a received write operation. The method can also include determining a mapped journal block based on the journal block and on an invalidation record. The method can also include determining whether write operations are outstanding. If so, the method can include aggregating the outstanding write operations and performing a single write operation based on the aggregated write operations. |
