From bf0a722acdd8247602e83720a5f81a0b69c76250 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Daniel R. Carvalho" Date: Thu, 18 Apr 2019 15:53:21 +0200 Subject: mem-cache: Remove writebacks packet list Previously all atomic writebacks concerned a single block, therefore, when a block was evicted, no other block would be pending eviction. With sector tags (and compression), however, a single replacement can generate many evictions. This can cause problems, since a writeback that evicts a block may evict blocks in the lower cache. If one of these conflict with one of the blocks pending eviction in the higher level, the snoop must inform it to the lower level. Since atomic mode does not have a writebuffer, this kind of conflict wouldn't be noticed. Therefore, instead of evicting multiple blocks at once, we do it one by one.
