Error Detection and Error Handling

This chapter gives an overview of the 21264/EV67 error detection and error handling mechanisms, and is organized as follows:

•Data error correction code

•Icache data or tag parity error

•Dcache tag parity error

•Dcache data correctable ECC error

•Dcache store second error

•Dcache duplicate tag parity error

•Bcache tag parity error

•Bcache data correctable ECC error

•Memory/system port data correctable ECC error

•Bcache data correctable ECC error on a probe

•Double-bit fill errors

•Error case summary

Table 8–1summarizes the 21264/EV67 error detection.
