Abstract
A system, and corresponding method, is described for correcting an uncorrectable error in a coherent system. The uncorrectable error is detecting using an error detecting code, such as parity or SECDED. The cache controller or agent calculates a set of possible addresses. The directory is queried to determine which one of the set of possible addresses is the correct address. The agent and/or cache controller is updated with the correct address or way. The invention can be implemented in any chip, system, method, or HDL code that perform protection schemes and require ECC calculation, of any kind. Embodiments of the invention enable IPs that use different protections schemes to reduce power consumption and reduce bandwidth access to more efficiently correct errors and avoid a system restart when an uncorrectable error occurs.
