Changeset 10683:3147f3a868f7 --------------------------- mem: fix prefetcher bug regarding write buffer hits Prefetches are supposed to be squashed if the block is already present in a higher-level cache. We squash appropriately if the block is in a higher-level cache or MSHR, but did not properly handle the case where the block is in the write buffer. Thanks to George Michelogiannakis <mihelog@lbl.gov> for help in tracking down and testing this fix.
