Abstract
Memory system features may promote cache coherency where first and second memory clients may attempt to work on the same data. A second client cache system may provide a read request for data and associated metadata. The metadata element may be detected in a first client cache system. The first client cache system may write or flush, such as to a system memory, one or more cache lines containing the metadata and associated data and invalidate the flushed cache lines. The second client cache system may receive the data and metadata, such as from the system memory, completing or fulfilling the read request.
