Computing device with independently coherent nodes

A computing device comprises two or more compute nodes, that each include two or more processor cores. Each compute node comprises an independently coherent domain that is not coherent with other compute nodes. A central IO die is communicatively coupled to each of the two or more compute nodes.

Zusammenfassung:A computing device comprises two or more compute nodes, that each include two or more processor cores. Each compute node comprises an independently coherent domain that is not coherent with other compute nodes. A central IO die is communicatively coupled to each of the two or more compute nodes. A plurality of natively-attached volatile memory units are attached to the central IO die via one or more memory controllers. The central IO die includes one or more home agents for each compute node. The home agents are configured to map memory access requests received from the compute nodes to one or more addresses within the natively attached volatile memory units.
