How is DMA cache coherency kept on Intel chipsets?












0















I was reading something a few months ago about windows chipset iterations and PCH upgrades between them and I'm pretty sure I saw something on DMA cache coherency and that it involves the home agent or QHL but I can't find it now.



So I ask if anyone knows the details of any method of DMA cache coherency that has been employed by Intel and how it works.
