Abstract: A method includes, in a cache directory, storing an entry associating a memory region with an exclusive coherency state, and in response to a memory access directed to the memory region, transmitting a demote superprobe to convert at least one cache line of the memory region from an exclusive coherency state to a shared coherency state.

Abstract: A method includes, in a cache directory, storing a set of entries corresponding to one or more memory regions having a first region size when the cache directory is in a first configuration, and based on a workload sparsity metric, reconfiguring the cache directory to a second configuration. In the second configuration, each entry in the set of entries corresponds to a memory region having a second region size.

Abstract: A current set of context features for a database query that is associated with a string is identified. The database query includes a sequence of tokens of a database syntax, and the current set of context features includes words from the string and tokens from the database query. An inference record is selected from an inference store based on a comparison of the current set of context features to context features of inference records in the inference store. The database query is modified using a resolution of the inference record to obtain an inferred database query. The resolution includes one or more tokens of the database syntax. A search of a database is invoked using a query based on the inferred database query to obtain search results.

Abstract: Disclosed are examples of a system and method to communicate cache line eviction data from a CPU subsystem to a home node over a prioritized channel and to release the cache subsystem early to process other transactions.

Abstract: Disclosed is a cache directory including one or more cache directories configurable to interchange within each cache directory entry at least one bit between a first field and a second field to change the size of the region of memory represented and the number of cache lines tracked in the cache subsystem.
