Abstract

See full text

Monitoring, by a processor having a cache, addresses accessed by a co-processor associated with the processor during transactional execution of a transaction by the processor. The processor executes a transactional memory (TM) transaction, including receiving, by the processor, a memory address range of data that a co-processor may access to perform a co-processor operation. The processor saves the memory address range. Based on receiving, by the processor, a cache coherency request that conflicts with the saved address range, the processor aborts the TM transaction.
