Abstract
Embodiments are for using a decentralized hot cache line tracking fairness mechanism. In response to receiving an incoming request to access a cache line, a determination is made to grant access to the cache line based on a requested state and a serviced state used for maintaining the cache line, a structure comprising the requested and serviced states. In response to the determination to grant access to the cache line, the requested state and the serviced state are transferred along with data of the cache line.
