  • Publication number: 20180293695
    Abstract: A control surface tracks an individual cacheline in the original surface for frequent data values. If so, control surface bits are set. When reading a cacheline from memory, first the control surface bits are read. If they happen to be set, then the original memory read is skipped altogether and instead the bits from the control surface provide the value for the entire cacheline.
