ABSTRACT:
A data fault processing apparatus is provided in a multi-processor system having a plurality of main memories, and a plurality of cache memories. If a syndrome based on data and an error correction code (ECC) has an uncorrectable pattern, the ECC is converted so that a syndrome based on the data and the converted ECC has a check suppressing pattern. When an error detector detects an error from the syndrome, if the syndrome has the check suppressing pattern, a fault is not notified to the processors.
