[Gems-users] coherence misses

[Edward Lee <edwl202@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am using the MOESI_SMP_directory protocol. In order to calculate the
coherence misses I am looking at the ruby stats, namely the state
transitions as suggested earlier. I am summing up all the FWD_GETX and
FWD_GETS that cause state transitions, but I am not sure whether I
should include transient states in this calculation. Are they
referring to coherence misses?

Such transient state transitions are:

OM --> Fwd_GETX --> IM
OI -->  Fwd_GETX --> II
MI --> Fwd_GETX --> II

Regards,

Ed
