Abstract:
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for receiving a cache coherency message in an interconnect router from a caching agent, mapping the message to a criticality level according to a predetermined mapping, and appending the criticality level to each flow control unit of the message, which can be transmitted from the interconnect router based at least in part on the criticality level. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
