Yes, I think in GEMS implementation, you chose the invalidation instead of just downgrading to S.
You mean I can also choose to downgrade to S in this case?
But if I do so, there will be no transition to M, then why we should call the protocol as "MOESI"?
I guess there should be some special reason that you need the M state, can anyone tell me the reason?
Or I am not correct, and the M state can be eliminated? In face, MM state is more like the M in traditional sense.
