Hi Andre,
The state diagram has morphed a bit lately, DES is busy updating the
documentation and hopefully this will be covered RSN.
In the meantime, here is a snapshot of the current -trunks stateenginge:

This is machine generated, see comment at the top of cache_center.c
We collapsed the pass and fetch code, after all, it does the same
basic thing, the distinction is only what happens to the object
afterwards: is it cached or thrown away.
That way we eliminated a lot of almost, but not entirely identical
code and got rid a number of problems in the pass version of the
code, that were already fixed in the fetch version.
So short version: yes, pass goes on to fetch (and now from there
to deliver), but the object is not cached.

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
