the data transactions to memory in order). Note also that all burst writes by the 750GX are performed as
nonglobal, and hence do not normally enable snooping, even for address collision purposes. (Snooping might
still occur for reservation cancelling purposes.)
3.6.4 Snoop Response to 60x Bus Transactions
There are several bus transaction types defined for the 60x bus. The transactions in Table 3-5 correspond to
the transfer type signals TT[0–4], which are described in Section 7.2.4.1, Transfer Type (TT[0–4]), on
page 256.
The 750GX never retries a transaction in which GBL is not asserted, even if the tags are busy or there is a tag
hit. Reservations are snooped regardless of the state of GBL.

750GX Response
Clean block
00000
No action is taken.
Flush block
00100
No action is taken.
SYNC
01000
No action is taken.
Kill block
01100
The kill block operation is an address-only bus transaction initiated when a dcbz or
dcbi instruction is executed.
•
If the addressed cache block is in the exclusive (E) state, the cache block is
placed in the invalid (I) state.
•
If the addressed cache block is in the modified (M) state, the 750GX asserts
ARTRY and initiates a push of the modified block out of the cache and the
cache block is placed in the invalid (I) state.
•
If the address misses in the cache, no action is taken.
Any reservation associated with the address is canceled.
EIEIO

No action is taken.

Write-with-flush 00010
A write-with-flush operation is a single-beat or burst transaction initiated when a
caching-inhibited or write-through store instruction is executed.
•
If the addressed cache block is in the exclusive (E) state, the cache block is
placed in the invalid (I) state.
•
If the addressed cache block is in the modified (M) state, the 750GX asserts
ARTRY and initiates a push of the modified block out of the cache, and the
cache block is placed in the invalid (I) state.
•
If the address misses in the cache, no action is taken.
Any reservation associated with the address is canceled.
