  • Patent number: 9058272
    Abstract: An apparatus including a snoop filter decoupled from a cache and an associated method for snoop filtering are disclosed. The snoop filter is decoupled from the cache such that the cache changes states of lines in the cache from a first state that is a clean state, such as an exclusive (E) state, to a second state that is not a clean state, such as a modified (M) state, without the snoop filter's knowledge. The snoop filter buffers addresses of replaced lines that are unknown to be clean until a write-back associated with the replacement lines occurs, or until actual states of the replaced lines are determined by the snoop filter generating a snoop. A multi-level cache system in which a reallocation or replacement policy is biased to favor replacing certain lines such as inclusive lines, non-temporal lines or prefetched lines that have not been accessed, is also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 8943273
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide methods for cache efficiency. A method for cache efficiency can include storing data in a buffer entry in association with a cache array in response to a first store instruction that hits the cache array before the first store instruction is committed. Further, when a dependent load instruction is subsequent to the first store instruction, the method can include providing the data from the buffer entry in response to the first dependent load instruction. When a second store instruction overlaps an address of the first store instruction, the method can include coalescing data of the second store instruction in the buffer entry before the second store instruction is committed. When the second store instruction is followed by a second dependent load instruction, the method can include providing the coalesced data from the buffer entry in response to the second dependent load instruction.

  • Publication number: 20070186019
    Abstract: Systems and methods for early fixed latency subtractive decoding are disclosed. The subtractive decoding device speculatively acknowledges a bus transaction within a fixed time period that is the same as the time period for positive decoding. Pipelining of a new bus transaction may therefore be accomplished each new time period. A bus transaction may be retried if no acknowledgement occurs within the fixed time period.

  • Publication number: 20070162672
    Abstract: Systems and methods for early fixed latency subtractive decoding are disclosed. The subtractive decoding device speculatively, or conditionally, acknowledges a bus transaction within a fixed time period that is the same as the time period for positive decoding. Pipelining of a new bus transaction may therefore be accomplished each new time period. A bus transaction may be retried if no acknowledgement occurs within the fixed time period.

  • Publication number: 20060271716
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for supporting heterogeneous agents in on-chip busses. In one embodiment, the method includes the detection of a bus arbitration event between at least a first bus agent and a second bus agent. In one embodiment, a bus arbitration event is detected when at least the first bus agent and the second bus agent assert their respective bus request signals in a single clock cycle. Once a bus arbitration event is detected, bus ownership may be granted to both the first bus agent and the second bus agent, when the first bus agent and the second bus agent have different grant-to-valid latencies. In the embodiment, heterogeneous bus agents may coexist on a bus without requiring wasted or unused bus cycles following establishment of bus ownership. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20060143358
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the invention include an address interconnect and a data interconnect to transfer data among a number of devices. The data interconnect is configured to transfer data among the devices via multiple transfer paths. A transfer of data on one transfer path is independent from a transfer of data on another transfer path. In some cases, data is concurrently transferred among more than two of the devices on at least one of the address interconnect and the data interconnect. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

  • Publication number: 20060112238
    Abstract: A technique to write data to a processor cache without using intermediate memory storage. More particularly, embodiments of the invention relate to various techniques for writing data from a bus agent to a processor cache without having to first write the data to memory and then having the processor read the data from the memory.
