发明名称 Load-linked/store conditional mechanism in a cc-numa (cache-coherent nonuniform memory access) system
摘要 <p>A node includes a processor coupled to an interconnect and a memory bridge coupled to the interconnect. The processor is configured to maintain a first indication of whether or not a modification of data at a first address has been detected by the processor after a most recent load-linked (LL) instruction was executed by the processor to the first address. The memory bridge is responsible for internode coherency within the node, and is configured to initiate a first transaction on the interconnect in response to receiving a probe command from another node. The processor is configured, during a time period in which the processor has a second transaction outstanding to the first address, to change the first indication to the first state responsive to the first transaction. <IMAGE></p>
