Abstract: Managing lowest point of coherency (LPC) memory using a service layer adapter, the adapter coupled to a processor and an accelerator on a host computing system, the processor configured for symmetric multi-processing, including receiving, by the adapter, a memory access instruction from the accelerator; retrieving, by the adapter, a real address for the memory access instruction; determining, using base address registers on the adapter, that the real address targets the LPC memory, wherein the base address registers direct memory access requests between the LPC memory and other memory locations on the host computing system; and sending, by the adapter, the memory access instruction and the real address to a media controller for the LPC memory, wherein the media controller for the LPC memory is attached to the adapter via a memory interface.

Abstract: A processor core of a data processing system, in response to a first instruction, generates a copy-type request specifying a source real address and transmits it to a lower level cache. In response to a second instruction, the processor core generates a paste-type request specifying a destination real address associated with a memory-mapped device and transmits it to the lower level cache. In response to the copy-type request, the lower level cache copies a data granule from a storage location specified by the source real address into a non-architected buffer. In response to the paste-type request, the lower level cache writes the data granule from the non-architected buffer to the memory-mapped device. In response to receipt of the data granule, the memory-mapped device stores the data granule in a queue in the system memory associated with a hardware device of the data processing system.

Abstract: A memory lock mechanism within a multi-processor system is disclosed. A lock control section is initially assigned to a data block within a system memory of the multiprocessor system. In response to a request for accessing the data block by a processing unit within the multiprocessor system, a determination is made by a memory controller whether or not the lock control section of the data block has been set. If the lock control section of the data block has been set, the request for accessing the data block is denied. Otherwise, if the lock control section of the data block has not been set, the lock control section of the data block is set, and the request for accessing the data block is allowed.

Abstract: Direct memory access between an accelerator and a processor using a coherency adapter including receiving, by the adapter from the accelerator, a request to initiate a DMA transfer; providing, by the adapter, a translation tag (‘XTAG’) to the accelerator; receiving, by the adapter from the accelerator, a DMA instruction comprising the XTAG; generating, by the adapter, a DMA instruction comprising a real address based on the XTAG; and sending, by the adapter, the generated DMA instruction comprising the real address to a communications bus.

Abstract: A data processing system includes a processor core having a store-in lower level cache, a memory controller, a memory-mapped device, and an interconnect fabric communicatively coupling the lower level cache and the memory-mapped device. In response to a first instruction in the processor core, a copy-type request specifying a source real address is transmitted to the lower level cache. In response to a second instruction in the processor core, a paste-type request specifying a destination real address associated with the memory-mapped device is transmitted to the lower level cache. In response to receipt of the copy-type request, the lower level cache copies a data granule from a storage location specified by the source real address into a non-architected buffer. In response to receipt of the paste-type request, the lower level cache issues on the interconnect fabric a command that writes the data granule from the non-architected buffer to the memory-mapped device.

Abstract: A processor core of a data processing system, in response to a first instruction, generates a copy-type request specifying a source real address and transmits it to a lower level cache. In response to a second instruction, the processor core generates a paste-type request specifying a destination real address associated with a memory-mapped device and transmits it to the lower level cache. In response to receipt of the copy-type request, the lower level cache copies a data granule from a storage location specified by the source real address into a non-architected buffer. In response to receipt of the paste-type request, the lower level cache issues a command to write the data granule from the non-architected buffer to the memory-mapped device. In response to receipt from the memory-mapped device of a busy response, the processor core abandons the memory move instruction sequence and performs alternative processing.
