Abstract: A first level buffer chip gates a target second level buffer chip according to a preset mapping relationship, a first chip select signal, and a first higher-order address signal, and forwards a memory access instruction and a lower-order address signal received from a memory controller to the target second level buffer chip. The target second level buffer chip determines a target memory module according to a second chip select signal and a delayed address signal obtained by delay processing on a second higher-order address signal, determines a target memory chip according to the lower-order address signal, acquires target data from the target memory chip according to the memory access instruction, and returns the target data to the memory controller. A cascading manner of a system memory is changed to a tree-like topological form, which avoids a protocol conversion problem and reduces the memory access time.

Abstract: A memory management method and a device, where the method includes: receiving a memory access request, where the memory access request carries a virtual address; determining a page fault type of the virtual address if finding, in a translation lookaside buffer TLB and a memory, no page table entry corresponding to the virtual address; allocating a corresponding page to the virtual address if the page fault type of the virtual address is a blank-page-caused page fault, where the blank-page-caused page fault means that no corresponding page is allocated to the virtual address; and updating the page table entry corresponding to the virtual address to the memory and the TLB. The memory manager does not generate a page fault when a blank-page-caused page fault occurs, but allocates a corresponding page to the virtual address. Therefore, a quantity of occurrences of the page fault is reduced, thereby improving memory management efficiency.

Abstract: A memory access processing method is based on memory chip interconnection, a memory chip, and a system, which relate to the field of electronic devices, and can shorten a time delay in processing a memory access request and improve a utilization rate of system bandwidth. The method of the present invention includes: receiving, by a first memory chip, a memory access request; and if the first memory chip is not a target memory chip corresponding to the memory access request, sending, according to a preconfigured routing rule, the memory access request to a next memory chip connected with the first memory chip, until the target memory chip corresponding to the memory access request is determined. Embodiments of the present invention are mainly used in a process of processing a memory access request.
