Abstract: Each storage controller comprises a first storage unit, an interface unit, and a processing unit which sends, to the interface unit, a parameter which instructs n-fold write of writing data in each of n-number of (n is a natural number of 2 or more) other storage controllers. When the interface unit receives the parameter, the interface unit executes each processing of acquiring the data from the first storage unit and storing the data in the second storage unit, generating n-number of requests of writing the data in each of n-number of the other storage controllers, storing each of the generated requests in n-number of the queues corresponding to each of n-number of the other storage controllers, and processing each request stored in each queue and transferring the data stored in the second storage unit to each of n-number of the other storage controllers.

Abstract: A memory controller includes a memory channel controller that uses multiple groups of command queue and arbiter pairs. Each arbiter is coupled to a respective command queue to select memory access commands from each command queue according to predetermined criteria. Each arbiter selects from among the memory access requests in each command queue independently based on the predetermined criteria and sends selected memory access requests to a selector that serves as a second level arbiter which sends the request to a memory subchannel.

Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure are directed to high performance connection cache eviction for reliable transport protocols in data center networking. Connection priorities for connection entries are determined to store the connection entries in a cache based on their connection priority. During cache eviction, the connection entries with a lowest connection priority are evicted from the cache. Cache eviction can be achieved with low latency at a high rate.

Abstract: Described systems, apparatuses, and methods relate to volatile memories that are refreshed to maintain data integrity, such as dynamic random-access memory (DRAM) and synchronous DRAM (SDRAM). A memory device includes multiple dies, with each die having a memory array to be refreshed. The multiple dies may be interconnected via at least one inter-die bus of the memory device. A memory controller sends a command to the memory device to enter a self-refresh mode. In response, a die of the multiple dies can enter the self-refresh mode and initiate or otherwise coordinate refresh operations of the other dies. To do so, the die may transmit at least one refresh-related command to at least one other die using the inter-die bus. Multiple different signaling schemes and timing approaches are disclosed. The described inter-die refresh control principles may be implemented in energy-efficient applications, such as in low-power double data rate (LPDDR) SDRAM.

Abstract: An integrated circuit (IC) memory device includes an array of storage cells configured into multiple banks. Interface circuitry receives refresh commands from a host memory controller to refresh the multiple banks for a first refresh mode. On-die refresh control circuitry selectively generates local refresh commands to refresh the multiple banks in cooperation with the host memory controller during a designated hidden refresh interval in a second refresh mode. Mode register circuitry stores a value indicating whether the on-die refresh control circuitry is enabled for use during the second refresh mode. The interface circuitry includes backchannel control circuitry to transmit a corrective action control signal during operation in the second refresh mode.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for performing data message processing at a smart NIC of a computer that executes a software forwarding element (SFE). The method determines whether a received data message matches an entry in a data message classification cache stored on the smart NIC based on data message classification results of the SFE. When the data message matches an entry, the method determines whether the matched entry is valid by comparing a timestamp of the entry to a set of rules stored on the smart NIC. When the matched entry is valid, the method processes the data message according to the matched entry without providing the data message to the SFE executing on the computer.
