摘要: A computer system, and a method performed by it, having mechanism for ensuring consistency of data among various level(s) caching in multi-level hierarchical memory system. The cache includes an external bus request queue which associated mechanism, cooperate to monitor control the issuance requests, such as read requests write onto bus. system one or more CPUs each this mechanism.
