Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for processing uncommitted writes in a store queue. In an aspect, an apparatus comprises a processor and a dual store queue having an in-order queue (IOQ) for storing uncommitted writes and an uncommitted data gather queue (UGQ) for gathering uncommitted data. The dual store queue receives, from a processor, a first write instruction for writing first data to at least a portion of memory at a first memory address, allocates an IOQ entry corresponding to the first write instruction, and allocates or updates a UGQ entry associated with the first memory address to contain the first data.

Abstract: A canister lid (101) for a canister (102) includes an annular perimeter (103) surrounding an interior portion (104). Rather than completely surrounding the interior portion, the annular perimeter is instead interrupted by a suction conduit (112) defined by a suction conduit (112) separating a first lobe (117) and a second lobe (118). The suction conduit (112) intersects the annular perimeter such that the first lobe is disposed interior of the annular perimeter while the second lobe is disposed exterior to the annular perimeter. The canister lid can further include one or more ports (110,111) extending from the interior portion. A canister (102) can include a valve (401) and can optionally be coupled to a hub mount vacuum source (1200) or a hub mount stand (1800).
