Abstract

A micro-architecture may provide a hardware and software of a high bandwidth write command. The micro-architecture may invoke a method to perform the high bandwidth write command. The method may comprise sending a write request from a requester to a record keeping structure. The write request may have a memory address of a memory that stores requested data. The method may further determine copies of the requested data being present in a distributed cache system outside the memory, sending invalidation requests to elements holding copies of the requested data in the distributed cache system, sending a notification to the requester to inform presence of copies of the requested data and sending a write response message after a latest value of the requested data and all invalidation acknowledgements have been received.
