description | A directory cache is provided with a plurality of directory entries configured to store information regarding copies of memory lines stored in a plurality of caches. The entries are divided into sets of N entries, with each set of N entries being addressable via an index. The directory cache is also provided with a cache controller. The cache controller retrieves a set of N entries associated with an index corresponding to a memory line, and if a tag portion of one of the retrieved entries corresponds to the memory line, the cache controller determines whether the one of the retrieved entries contains an indication that information regarding the memory line is stored in at least a second one of the retrieved entries. |
