Abstract

Maintaining store order with high throughput in a distributed shared memory system. A request is received for a first ordered data store and a coherency check is initiated. A signal is sent that pipelining of a second ordered data store can be initiated. If a delay condition is encountered during the coherency check for the first ordered data store, rejection of the first ordered data store is signaled. If a delay condition is not encountered during the coherency check for the first ordered data store, a signal is sent indicating a readiness to continue pipelining of the second ordered data store.
