Abstract

A node controller for a first processor socket group may include a node memory storing a coherence directory and logic. Logic may cause the node controller to: receive a memory operation request directly from a second processor socket group, follow a coherence protocol based on the memory operation request and the coherence directory and directly access a socket group memory of the first processor socket group based on the request.
