  • Computer processor employing dedicated hardware mechanism controlling the initialization and invalidation of cache lines
    Patent number: 9652230
    Abstract: A computer processing system includes execution logic that generates memory requests that are supplied to a hierarchical memory system. The computer processing system includes a hardware map storing a number of entries associated with corresponding cache lines, where each given entry of the hardware map indicates whether a corresponding cache line i) currently stores valid data in the hierarchical memory system, or ii) does not currently store valid data in hierarchical memory system and should be interpreted as being implicitly zero throughout.
    Type: Grant
