Abstract:
Topology of clusters of processors of a computer configuration, configured to support any of a plurality of cache coherency protocols, is discovered at initialization time to determine which one of the plurality of cache coherency protocols is to be used to handle coherency requests of the configuration

Claim (Index 6):
The modular computer system according to  claim 2 , wherein a respective element of the configuration of a plurality of elements is configured to broadcast a request for a cache line to elements other than the requesting element of the configuration, the request consisting of a command and an address, wherein each element receiving the broadcast request is configured to create a respective partial response (PRESP) based on respective state of the requested cache line in the respective element, and to send the respective partial response (PRESP) to all elements other than the respective element, wherein each element is configured to form a combined response (CRESP) based on PRESPs, wherein one of the elements of the configuration is established as the point of coherency for the requested cache line, the method further comprises:\n broadcasting a request for a cache line to elements other than the requesting element of the configuration, the request consisting of a command and an address; creating by each respective element receiving the broadcast request a respective partial response (PRESP) based on respective state of the requested cache line in the respective element; sending the respective partial response (PRESP) to all elements other than the respective element; and forming a combined response (CRESP), by all elements, based on PRESPs, wherein one of the elements of the configuration is established as the point of coherency for the requested cache line.
