Zusammenfassung:A technique for performing cache injection in a processor system includes monitoring, by a cache, addresses on a bus. Input/output data associated with an address of a data block stored in the cache is then requested from a remote node, via a network controller. Ownership of the input/output data is acquired by the cache when an address on the bus that is associated with the input/output data corresponds to the address of the data block stored in the cache.
