Publication number: 20240104021Abstract: Embodiments are for processor cross-core cache line contention management. A computer-implemented method includes sending a cross-invalidate command to one or more caches based on receiving a cache state change request for a cache line in a symmetric multiprocessing system and determining a retry delay based on receiving a cross-invalidate reject response from at least one of the one or more caches. The computer-implemented method also includes waiting until a retry delay period associated with the retry delay has elapsed to resend the cross-invalidate command to the one or more caches and granting the cache state change request for the cache line based on receiving a cross-invalidate accept response from the one or more caches.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Michael Joseph Cadigan, JR., Gregory William Alexander, Deanna Postles Dunn Berger, Timothy Bronson, Chung-Lung K.
