Zusammenfassung: | A method for directing cache injection based on actual system load may include providing a snooping-based fabric having two or more bus-coupled units. At least one of the bus-coupled units may be configured as an injection unit for directing cache injection. A snoop request may be transmitted from the injection unit to one or more destination units of the other bus-coupled unit. The snoop request may include an identification value having a function identifier. The function identifier may identify a destination function for the cache injection, where the destination function is configured to run on the destination unit. A snoop response may be transmitted from the destination unit to the injection unit in response to the snoop request. The snoop response may include a function response value indicating whether the function identifier matches a function indication of a snoop register for the destination unit. |
