Subject: mem-cache: Fix MSHR handling of cache clean requests
X-Git-Tag: v19.0.0.0~975
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=a8d5dd1c136529e9605066368877d3b8e24dcdba;p=gem5.git

mem-cache: Fix MSHR handling of cache clean requests

Previously satisfied clean requests would not snoop in-service
MSHRs. This is a problem when a clean request is also invalidating, in
which case we have to post-invalidate or post-downgrade outstanding
requests. This changes fixes this bug.
