A system and method for facilitating communications between a plurality of devices that communicate using different cache-line sizes are disclosed. Briefly described, in architecture, one exemplary embodiment of a compatible cache-line communication system employs a plurality of first ports, each first port configured to receive communications from a first type of device that uses a first cache-line size; and a plurality of second ports, each second port configured to receive communications from a second type of device that uses a second cache-line size, such that communications between the first type of devices are enabled over a plurality of first routes, such that communications between the second type of devices are enabled over a plurality of second routes, and such that communications between the first type of devices and the second type of devices are disabled.
A compatible cache-line communication system, comprising:
The system of claim 2, further comprising at least one crossbar device that communicatively couples to the plurality of first ports and the plurality of second ports.
A method for facilitating communications between a plurality of devices that communicate using different cache-line sizes, the method comprising:
A system for facilitating communications between a plurality of devices that communicate using different cache-line sizes, comprising:
A program for facilitating communications between a plurality of devices that communicate using different cache-line sizes stored on computer-readable medium, the program comprising logic configured to perform:
