Abstract
An L2 cache, method and computer program product for transferring an inbound bus operation to a processor side handling machine. The method includes a bus operation handling machine accepting the inbound bus operation received over a system interconnect, the bus operation handling machine identifying a demand operation of the processor side handling machine that will complete the bus operation, the bus operation handling machine sending the identified demand operation to the processor side handling machine, and the processor side handling machine performing the identified demand operation.
