Abstract
A processing system that includes a shared data fabric resets a first client processor while operating a second client processor. The first client processor is instructed to stop making requests to one or more devices of the shared data fabric. Status communications are blocked between the first client processor and a memory controller, the second client processor, or both, such that the first client processor enters a temporary offline state. The first client processor is indicated as being non-coherent. Accordingly, when the processor is reset some errors and efficiency losses due messages sent during or prior to the reset are prevented.
