Patent number: 6408361Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for allowing autonomous, way specific tag updates. More specifically, the invention provides way specific tag and status updates while concurrently allowing reads of the ways not currently being updated. If a read hit is determined, then the read is processed in a typical fashion. However, if the read is a read miss and one of the ways is flagged as being updated, then all ways are read again once the specific way has completed its updated.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 1999Date of Patent: June 18, 2002Assignees: International Business Machines Corporation, Motorola, Inc.Inventors: Thomas Albert Petersen, James Nolan Hardage, Jr., Scott Ives Remington
