Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed for providing memory address translation for a memory management system. One embodiment of such a system comprises a memory device and an application processor in communication via a system interconnect. The application processor comprises test code for testing one or more of a plurality of hardware devices. Each of the hardware devices has a corresponding system memory management unit (SMMU) for processing memory requests associated with the hardware device to the memory device. The system further comprises a client-side address translation system in communication with the system interconnect and the plurality of SMMUs. The client-side address translation system is configured to selectively route stimulus traffic associated with the test code to a client port on one or more of the plurality of SMMUs for testing the corresponding hardware devices.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for external access detection and recovery in a subsystem of a system-on-a-chip (SoC) in a portable computing device (PCD) are presented. In operation, a subsystem of the SoC is operated in an internal mode independently of the SoC while the SoC is in a low power state, such as a non-functional or zero power state or mode. The subsystem comprises a processor in communication with a memory, a sensor, and a monitor module. The monitor module detects when the processor of the subsystem requests access to a component external to the subsystem. In response to this detected request, the SoC is caused to enter into a full power state or mode, and the subsystem is caused to exit the internal mode of operation.
