Abstract
In one embodiment, a processor includes: one or more cores to execute instructions; at least one cache memory; and a coherence circuit coupled to the at least one cache memory. The coherence circuit may have a direct memory access circuit to receive a write request, and based at least in part on an address of the write request, to directly send the write request to a device coupled to the processor via a first bus, to cause the device to store data of the write request to a device-attached memory. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
