Abstract
An apparatus comprises an non-inclusive cache () configured to cache data and coherency control circuitry (). The coherency control circuitry is configured to look up the non-inclusive cache in response to a coherent access request from a first requestor (). In response to determining that the coherent access request can be serviced using data stored in a matching entry of the non-inclusive cache, the coherency control circuitry references snoop-filter information associated with the matching entry to determine whether the first requestor can use the data stored in the matching entry without waiting for a response to a snoop of a coherent cache ().
