Abstract
A multi-node computer system includes a plurality of I/O nodes, CPU nodes, memory nodes, and hybrid nodes connected via an interconnect. A CPU node or an I/O node issues a request. An address decoder residing in the interconnect decodes the request to determine whether the request is a coherent memory request. The address decoder also determines a physical destination node address of the request based on a logical node address stored in the request.
