G.R.,
That's a good point. We don't need to allocate an L1 block there since one should have been allocated on the first load or load_xact event. Can you elaborate on the missing profile messages? Thanks,

In IS/Retry transition, there is an ii_allocateL1DCacheBlock action which
will clear out the Trans, Read and Write bit of the cache line. So a Retried
LD_XACT will result in Trans bit set to false. While the Read bit will be
set when the data is received so as to function correctly, the wrong Trans
flag will result in missing of some profile messages.

I think it's redundant and troublesome to put this action there. How do you
think about it?
