Hi all:
I'm reading ACE protocol. I have some questions about such scenario:
two cache masters (master 0/1) and main meomry are connected by Coherent interconnect.
master 0 and master 1 are both SharedClean.
cacheline size : 64bytes.
Q1: if master 1 writes to portion of the shareable cacheline(update the 1st byte of cacheline),
result 1: master 1 will issue CleanUnique and , master 1 cache state become UniqueDirty.
result 2 :master 1 cache state become SharedDirty, master 0 cache state will still be SharedClean.
which result will be right?
Q2: if result 2 in Q1 is right and then master 0 updates the 3rd byte of cacheline, how the 2 masters and interconnect act?
Thanks.
