Zusammenfassung:Techniques for updating data in a reflective memory region of a first memory device are described herein. In one example, a method for updating data in a reflective memory region of a first memory device includes receiving an indication that data is to be flushed from a cache device to the first memory device. The method also includes detecting a memory address corresponding to the data is within the reflective memory region of the first memory device and sending data from the cache device to the first memory device with a flush operation. Additionally, the method includes determining that the data received by the first memory device is modified data. Furthermore, the method includes sending the modified data to a second memory device in a second computing system.
