Abstract: In some examples, a controller includes a counter to track errors associated with a group of memory access operations, and processing logic to detect an error associated with the group of memory access operations, determine whether the detected error causes an error state change of the group of memory access operations, and cause advancing of the counter responsive to determining that the detected error causes the error state change of the group of memory access operations.

Abstract: According to an example, a lock may be requested by a first redundancy controller from a parity media controller to perform a first sequence that accesses multiple memory modules in a stripe. The lock may be acquired for the stripe so that the first sequence may be performed on the stripe. The lock may then be released from the stripe.

Abstract: In some examples, each processor of a plurality of processors applies an interleave transform to perform interleaved access of a plurality of memory banks, where for any given memory address in use by the plurality of processors, applying any of the interleave transforms results in selection of a same memory bank of the plurality of memory banks and a same address within the same memory bank.

Abstract: A fabric back pressure timeout transmitting device may include an arbiter, a first queue to supply packets to the arbiter and a second queue to supply packets to the arbiter, a first timer tracking time since transmission of a packet from the first queue with at least one packet in the first queue and a second timer tracking time since transmission of a packet from the second queue with at least one packet in the second queue. The first queue is designated to receive those packets that have a first number of remaining to destination hops. The second queue is designated to receive those packets that have a second number of remaining destination hops different than the first number.

Abstract: Examples relate to virtual channel routing in networks considering VC actions to be performed by the packets while routed through the network. A packet is received at an input port of a network device of a network and an output port and a VC action is determined from a routing table associated to the input port based on a packet's destination network device. A VC mask is determined from a Virtual Channel Action Table (VCAT), associated to the routing table, based on a packet's ingress VC and the VC action. A particular VC among the set of VCs defined in the VC mask is selected and the packet is routed to the destination network device using the output port and the particular VC.

Abstract: An apparatus for assisting a flush of a cache is described herein. The apparatus comprises processing element. The processing element is to probe a cache line at an offset address and write the cache line at the offset address to a non-volatile memory in response to a flush instruction at a first address.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to congestion management across a network fabric. An example implementation includes setting an uncongested sequence length threshold to a first value. A completed transaction received count may also be set to an initial value. The completed transaction received count may be incremented in response to a completion of a transaction request. In response to a detected congestion event, the injection rate may be decreased. A second value for the uncongested sequence length threshold may be determined from the CTR count, and the uncongested sequence length threshold may be set to the second value. Furthermore, in response to the CTR count being greater than or equal to the uncongested sequence length threshold, the injection rate may be increased.

Abstract: According to an example, a retransmission sequence involving non-idempotent primitives in a fault-tolerant memory fabric may be modified. For example, a redundancy controller may request a sequence to access a stripe in the fault-tolerant memory fabric, wherein the sequence involves a non-idempotent primitive. In response to determining an expiration of a time threshold for the non-idempotent primitive, the redundancy controller may read other data in other cachelines in the stripe, calculate a new parity value by performing an idempotent exclusive-or primitive on the new data with the other data in the stripe, and write the new parity to the stripe using an idempotent write primitive.

Abstract: According to an example, hierarchal stripe locks may be obtained for a source stripe and a destination stripe. In response to receiving data for the source stripe, the data is written from the source stripe to the destination stripe, and the hierarchal stripe locks are released for the source stripe and the destination stripe. In response to receiving the data-migrated token, the hierarchal stripe locks are released for the source stripe and the destination stripe.

Abstract: According to an example, data corruption and single point of failure is prevented in a fault-tolerant memory fabric with multiple redundancy controllers by granting, by a parity media controller, a lock of a stripe to a redundancy controller to perform a sequence on the stripe. The lock may be broken in response to determining a failure of the redundancy controller prior to completing the sequence. In response to breaking the lock, the parity cacheline of the stripe may be flagged as invalid. Also, a journal may be updated to document the breaking of the lock.

Abstract: An example device in accordance with an aspect of the present disclosure includes a redundancy controller and/or memory module to prevent data corruption and single point of failure in a fault-tolerant memory fabric. Devices include engines to issue and/or respond to primitive requests, identify failures and/or fault conditions, and receive and/or issue containment mode indications.

Abstract: A system includes a central processing unit (CPU) to process data. A first memory management unit (MMU) in the CPU generates an external request to a bus for data located external to the CPU. An external fault handler in the CPU processes a fault response received via the bus. The fault response is generated externally to the CPU and relates to a fault being detected with respect to the external request.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to calculating a time to live (TTL). An example implementation includes receiving a transaction request containing a first time to live (TTL) from a requester. A second TTL for a transaction response may be computed, and a transaction response containing the second TTL may be transmitted.

Abstract: In one example, a controller for managing a set of resources. A first structure has a first entry statically associated with one of the resources. A second structure has a second entry dynamically associative with one of the resources. A resource sharing mechanism borrows for the second structure an idle resource associated with the first structure.

Abstract: A system comprises a processor, a memory fabric, and a fabric bridge coupled to the memory fabric and the processor. The fabric bridge may receive, from the processor a first eviction request comprising first eviction data, transmit, to the processor, a message indicating the fabric bridge has accepted the first eviction request, transmit a first write comprising the first eviction data to the fabric, receive, from the processor, a second eviction request comprising second eviction data, and transmit a second write comprising the second eviction data to the fabric. Responsive to transmitting the second write request, the fabric bridge may transmit, to the processor, a message indicating the fabric bridge accepted the second eviction request, determine that the first write and the second write have persisted, and transmit, to the processor, a notification to the processor responsive to determining that the first write and the second write have persisted.

Abstract: A memory device may operate in multiple modes. In a first mode, writes are not committed. In a second mode, writes are committed.

Abstract: In some examples, a tracker receives a write request that is acknowledged upon receipt by a destination media controller without waiting for achievement of persistence of write data associated with the write request. The tracker adds an identifier of the destination media controller to a tracking structure in response to the identifier not already being present in the tracking structure. The tracker sends a request to persist write operations to media controllers identified by the tracking structure.
