Zusammenfassung:Multi-processor systems and methods are disclosed. One embodiment may comprise a multi-processor system including a processor that executes program instructions across at least one memory barrier. A request engine may provide an updated data fill corresponding to an invalid cache line. The invalid cache line may be associated with at least one executed load instruction. A load compare component may compare the invalid cache line to the updated data fill to evaluate the consistency of the at least one executed load instruction.
