Abstract:
Method and apparatus for per-agent control and quality of service of shared resources in a chip multiprocessor platform is described herein. One embodiment of a system includes: a plurality of core and non-core requestors of shared resources, the shared resources to be provided by one or more resource providers, each of the plurality of core and non-core requestors to be associated with a resource-monitoring tag and a resource-control tag; a mapping table to store the resource monitoring and control tags associated with each non-core requestor; and a tagging circuitry to receive a resource request sent from a non-core requestor to a resource provider, the tagging circuitry to responsively modify the resource request to include the resource-monitoring and resource-control tags associated with the non-core requestor in accordance to the mapping table and send the modified resource request to the resource provider.
