Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-core processor system and a cache coherency processing method, wherein the multi-core processor system provided herein is used for executing cache coherency processing; the cache line in the multi-core processor system has M, E, K, I, and F states; a first processor core is used for sending first request message asking for read operations to a second processor core; the second processor core is used for sending datum carried in first response message in a first cache line to the first processor core and the second processor core is used for changing the state of the first cache line to the K state; and after the state of the first cache line is changed from the M state to the K state, the second processor core will neglect the operations of writing the datum of the first cache line into memory. According to the invention, when the cache coherency processing is executed by the multi-core processor system in the existing technology, the problem of poor performance of the multi-core processor system due to high possibility of the memory to participate in the processing is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to computer technology, in particular to a multi-core processor system and a cache consistency processing method. Background technique [0002] Each processor core of a multi-core processor system usually maintains cache coherence according to a cache coherence protocol. The cache coherence protocol directly affects the data access performance of the multi-core processor system, and then affects the overall performance of the multi-core processor. [0003] Currently commonly used cache coherence protocols include the MESIF protocol and the MOESI protocol. On the one hand, the MESIF protocol introduces the forwarding (Forwarding, referred to as: F) state in the MESI protocol, and there are multiple shared (Shared, referred to as: S) state cache lines in the multi-core processor system, and at this time there is a processor When the kernel requests to read the data in these S-state cache memory (cache) rows, the state of one of the...
