Abstract
A coherent attached processor proxy (CAPP) within a primary coherent system participates in an operation on a system fabric of the primary coherent system on behalf of an attached processor (AP) that is external to the primary coherent system and that is coupled to the CAPP. The operation includes multiple components communicated with the CAPP including a request and at least one coherence message. The CAPP determines one or more of the components of the operation by reference to at least one programmable data structure within the CAPP that can be reprogrammed.
