Zusammenfassung:Apparatuses and methods for providing data consistency messaging for shared memory systems are disclosed herein. An example apparatus may include a producer processor unit configured to provide a memory access packet and a first notification packet. The first notification packet may include identification of a consumer processor unit. The example apparatus may further include a shared resource configured to receive the memory access packet and the notification packet. Responsive to reception of the memory access packet, the shared resource may be configured to perform a memory access operation. Responsive to reception of the notification packet, the shared resource may be further configured to route a first notification packet to the consumer processor unit. The second notification packet may include information indicating the shared resource is available.
