Publication number: 20250110878Abstract: Selectively bypassing cache directory lookups for processing-in-memory instructions is described. In one example, a system maintains information describing a status—clean or dirty—of a memory address, where a dirty status indicates that the memory address is modified in a cache and thus different than the memory address as represented in system memory. A processing-in-memory request involving the memory address is assigned a cache directory bypass bit based on the status of the memory address. The cache directory bypass bit for a processing-in-memory request controls whether a cache directory lookup is performed after the processing-in-memory request is issued by a processor core and before the processing-in-memory request is executed by a processing-in-memory component.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Applicant: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: Travis Henry Boraten, Jagadish B. Kotra, David Andrew Werner

Publication number: 20250110887Abstract: Preemptive flushing of data involved in executing a processing-in-memory command, from a cache system to main memory that is accessible by a processing-in-memory component, is described. In one example, a system includes an asynchronous flush controller that receives an indication of a subsequent processing-in-memory command to be executed as part of performing a computational task. While earlier commands of the computational task are executed, the asynchronous flush controller evicts or invalidates data elements involved in executing the subsequent processing-in-memory command from the cache system, such that the processing-in-memory command can proceed without stalling.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Applicant: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: David Andrew Werner, Travis Henry Boraten, Michael Warren Boyer

Publication number: 20250110886Abstract: Speculative cache invalidation techniques for processing-in-memory instructions are described. In one example, a system includes a cache system including a plurality of cache levels and a cache coherence controller. The cache coherence controller is configured to perform a cache directory lookup using a cache directory. The cache directory lookup is configured to indicate whether data associated with a memory address specified by a processing-in-memory request is valid in memory. The system employs speculative evaluation logic to identify whether the data associated with the processing-in-memory request is stored in the cache system before the processing-in-memory request is transmitted to the cache coherence controller. If the data is stored in the cache system, the cache system locally invalidates or flushes the data to avoid stalling the processing-in-memory request during a cache directory lookup.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2023Publication date: April 3, 2025Applicant: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: Travis Henry Boraten, Jagadish B.

Publication number: 20240330186Abstract: Cache directory lookup address augmentation techniques are described. In one example, a system includes a cache system including a plurality of cache levels and a cache coherence controller. The cache coherence controller is configured to perform a cache directory lookup using a cache directory. The cache directory lookup is configured to indicate whether data associated with a memory address specified by a memory request is valid in memory. The cache directory lookup is augmented to include an additional memory address based on the memory address.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2023Publication date: October 3, 2024Applicant: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: Travis Henry Boraten, Varun Agrawal

Publication number: 20240211402Abstract: In accordance with the described techniques for condensed coherence directory entries for processing in memory, a computing device includes a core that includes a cache, a memory that includes multiple banks, a coherence directory that includes a condensed entry indicating that data associated with a memory address and the multiple banks is not stored in the cache, and a cache coherence controller. The cache coherence controller receives a processing-in-memory command to the memory address and performs a single lookup in the coherence directory for the processing-in-memory command based on inclusion of the condensed entry in the coherence directory.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 27, 2022Publication date: June 27, 2024Applicant: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.Inventors: Travis Henry Boraten, Varun Agrawal, Michael Warren Boyer

Patent number: 11215212Abstract: An improved pivot pin for a firearm may provide a head, shank, and/or openings. The improved pivot pin may also provide a modified central channel, an installation point, and/or installation channel to allow for tool-free or tool-less installation. Further, the improved pivot pin may provide a removal channel to allow the pivot pin to easily be removed from the lower receiver without tools. An improved takedown pin for a firearm may provide a head, shank, and/or openings. The improved takedown pin may also provide a modified center channel and/or removal channel as well. A removal tool to aid removal of a pivot pin or takedown pin from a firearm may be generally shaped to conform or fit within the channel of the pivot or takedown pin. The width and height of the removal tool may be slightly smaller than the width and height of the channel of the pivot pin or takedown pin. The distal end of the removal tool may taper from a top surface to the bottom surface to form a sharp point or tip.Type: GrantFiled: September 5, 2018Date of Patent: January 4, 2022Assignee: Swiss CNC LLCInventors: Christopher S. Adams, Kenneth Craig Ridlehuber, Travis Henry Bendele
