Abstract:
A method, computer program product, and system for maintaining a proper ordering of a data steam that includes two or more sequentially ordered stores, the data stream being moved to a destination memory device, the two or more sequentially ordered stores including at least a first store and a second store, wherein the first store is rejected by the destination memory device. A computer-implemented method includes sending the first store to the destination memory device. A conditional request is sent to the destination memory device for approval to send the second store to the destination memory device, the conditional request dependent upon successful completion of the first store. The second store is cancelled responsive to receiving a reject response corresponding to the first store.
Abstract:
Creating hash values based on bit values of an input vector. An apparatus includes a first and a second hash table, a first and second hash function generator adapted to configure a respective hash function for a creation of a first and second hash value based on the bit values of the input vector. The hash values are stored in the respective hash tables. An evaluation unit includes a comparison unit to compare a respective effectiveness of the first hash function and the second hash function, and an exchanging unit responsive to the comparison unit adapted to replace the first hash function by the second hash function.
Abstract:
According to embodiments of the invention, methods, computer system, and apparatus for virtual channel management and bus multiplexing are disclosed. The method may include establishing a virtual channel from a first device to a second device via a bus, the bus having a first bus capacity and a second bus capacity, the second bus capacity having greater capacity than the first bus capacity, determining whether a store command is issued for the first bus capacity, determining whether the first bus capacity is available, and allocating the second bus capacity and marking the second bus capacity as unavailable in response to the store command if the first bus capacity is unavailable.
Abstract:
A method of avoiding a write collision in single port memory devices from two independent write operations is described. A first data object from a first write operation is divided into a first even sub-data object and first odd sub-data object. A second data object from a second write operation is divided into a second even sub-data object and a second odd sub-data object. The first even sub-data object is stored to a first single port memory device and the second odd sub-data object to a second single port memory device when the first write operation and the second write operation occur at the same time. The second even sub-data object is stored to the first single port memory device and the first odd sub-data object to the second single port memory device when the first write operation and the second write operation occur at the same time.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for providing data from a cache memory to requestors includes a number of cache memory levels arranged in a hierarchy. The method includes receiving a request for fetching data from the cache memory and determining one or more addresses in a cache memory level which is one level higher than a current cache memory level using one or more prediction algorithms. Further, the method includes pre-fetching the one or more addresses from the high cache memory level and determining if the data is available in the addresses. If data is available in the one or more addresses then data is fetched from the high cache level, else addresses of a next level which is higher than the high cache memory level are determined and pre-fetched. Furthermore, the method includes providing the fetched data to the requestor.
