A shared bypass bus structure for low-latency coherency controller access in a coherent scalable switch. In a coherent scalable switch with multiple coherent interconnect ports, distributed coherency control structures, and a crossbar interface between them, a shared bypass bus permits data transfer between the coherent interconnect ports and the coherency control structures while bypassing the crossbar interface. Some embodiments may comprise scalable switches to support one or more sets of processors with substantially independent snoop or cache coherency paths or arrangements.
