Problems solved by technology

However, if the directory cache hits and the status of the indicated cache line is invalid, although it is not necessary to send a listening request to other cache agents, it must still read data from the memory, and then send the data to the requester cache agent. The memory reading speed is often very slow this time, affecting the response time of the entire request cache

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention discloses a memory data buffering method. The method comprises the following steps of: forming a combined cache region which at least comprises a directory cache and a data cache in a memory of a home agent, wherein cache lines in the directory cache and the data cache are in one-to-one correspondence; receiving an operation address which is sent by a cache agent, and judging whether the combined cache region is formed and effective according to the operation address; and if so, directly performing corresponding operation on the combined cache region. By the invention, the frequency of memory access is reduced, and data acquisition delay is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of computers, in particular to a memory data buffering method and device. Background technique [0002] Modern advanced computer systems are composed of multiple CPUs. In order to increase the data access rate of the CPU and reduce the memory access delay, the Cache function will be implemented on the CPU. Its access speed is generally more than an order of magnitude faster than direct access to memory. Since each CPU will implement a Cache, the memory at the same address will be cached in different CPU Cache. If a CPU writes to this address, the cache in other CPUs must be invalidated. If there is dirty data in the cache must be written back to memory. In order to complete the above functions, modern multiprocessor computers implement the Cache Coherence Protocol (Cache Coherence Protocol) on the memory bus, such as the QPI bus on the Intel CPU platform and the HT bus on the AMT CPU platform. Common typical cache c...
