MULTI-CORE PROCESSOR SYSTEM, CACHE COHERENCY CONTROL METHOD, AND COMPUTER PRODUCT

摘要

A multi-core processor system includes a processor configured to establish coherency of shared data values stored in a cache memory accessed by a multiple cores; detect a first thread executed by a first core among the cores; identify upon detecting the first thread, a second thread under execution by a second core other than the first core and among the cores; determine whether shared data commonly accessed by the first thread and the second thread is present; and stop establishment of coherency for a first cache memory corresponding to the first core and a second cache memory corresponding to the second core, upon determining that no shared data commonly accessed is present.
