let' see....

what if you do read and write pattern, in certain order so that it
will be invalidated by the L1/L2/L3 cache everytime?

AFAIK, one thing for sure, reading data from sequentially and re-read
them will make end up reading cache in the 2nd operation and so on.

I think the most certain way to do it is to read data (or write) data
bigger than total L1/L2/L3 cache.
