[Gems-users] directory and L2cache assertion

["Dave Z." <zhu_dave@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,


I have a question regarding assertions in MOESI_CMP_directory. Could you please tell me why we need the following assertion? Does it mean that a cache line cannot exist in the L2 cache and memory at the same time? Thanks.


assert((localDirectory.isTagPresent(addr) && L2cacheMemory.isTagPresent(addr)) == false);
