Abstract: Provided is a last round bolt hold-open mechanism for a firearm with a removable ammunition magazine and a longitudinally reciprocating bolt that automatically releases the bolt when a loaded ammunition magazine is inserted. The mechanism includes a frame mountable to a firearm receiver and having a pair of mounting flanges. A catch member is pivotally mounted on a pivot axle oriented transverse to the longitudinal reciprocation of the bolt and carried by the mounting flanges. The catch member has a rearward portion that moves between bolt blocking and bolt release positions and is spring biased toward the bolt blocking position. A forwardly extending finger is configured to be lifted by the presence of at least one ammunition cartridge in the magazine and, when lifted, causes the catch member to pivot to the bolt release position.

Abstract: A request for data from a cache (TLB or data/instruction cache) specifies a partition identifier allocated to a software execution environment associated with the request. Allocation of data to the cache is controlled based on a set of configuration information selected based on the partition identifier specified by the request. For a TLB, this allows different allocation policies to be used for requests associated with different software execution environments. In one example, the cache allocation is controlled based on an allocation threshold specified by the selected set of configuration information, which limits the maximum number of cache entries allowed to be allocated with data associated with the corresponding partition identifier.

Abstract: Disclosed are devices, method and/or systems for responding to a request for accessing a portion of a memory prior to completion of a requested operation to place the portion of the memory in an initialized state. In one example implementation, a memory controller may delay initiation of a write operation addressed to a particular portion of the memory until completion of a pending request to initialize the particular portion of the memory. In another example implementation, a memory controller may return values to service a request for a read operation comprising values representing an initialized state without accessing the particular portion of the memory responsive to a presence of a pending request to initialize the particular portion of the memory.

A second plurality (202) of network nodes (120-123, 130-133) of the network (100) is associated with a second cryptographic keying material and the multicast IP address. The first cryptographic keying material has a different secret than the second cryptographic keying material.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for controlling data organization in a tiered memory system, where the system comprises a lower and higher bandwidth memories. Accesses to the tiered memory system by an action of a computing device in a first time interval are monitored to determine a first measure of bandwidth utilization, from which it is determined if the action is in a high bandwidth phase for which a first measure of bandwidth utilization is greater than an upper value. It is further determined, from confidence counters, if a monitored access is consistent with respect to the first instructions or with respect to a memory address of the access. Data associated with the access is moved from the lower bandwidth memory to the higher bandwidth memory when the action is in a high bandwidth phase, the access is consistent, and bandwidth utilization of the higher bandwidth memory is below a threshold.
