    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 dynamic random access memory (DRAM) refresh method in which a to-be-refreshed area in a refresh block is specified in a refresh instruction is provided to refresh a specified location of a DRAM storage array. A memory controller sends a refresh instruction to a DRAM refresh apparatus. The refresh instruction includes an identifier of a to-be-refreshed block and refresh information indicating a to-be-refreshed area. The DRAM refresh apparatus generates addresses of to-be-refreshed bank rows in the to-be-refreshed block according to the identifier and the refresh information, and refresh locations corresponding to the addresses of the bank rows in the to-be-refreshed block. Therefore, a DRAM refresh time is shortened, refresh power consumption is reduced, a refresh operation is more flexible, and system resource consumption is reduced while data integrity is ensured.

    Abstract: A refresh control method and apparatus of a display device are disclosed, where the method includes: (201) periodically generating, a first refresh signal, and outputting an image frame for display that is stored in a frame buffer to a display panel; and (202) generating, a second refresh signal when determining that the image frame for display that is stored in the frame buffer changes, and outputting the image frame for display that is stored in the frame buffer to the display panel. A generation frequency of the second refresh signal is far less than a frequency required to ensure timely display of an image frame. In addition, an operation of refreshing an image frame is triggered by using an event, which may ensure timely display of the image frame, and avoid an unnecessary refresh operation, so as to reduce system resource consumption and memory consumption.

    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.

    Abstract: A cache management method, a cache controller, and a computer system are provided. In the method, the cache controller obtains an operation instruction; when a destination address in the operation instruction hits no cache line cache line in a cache of the computer system, and the cache includes no idle cache line, the cache controller selects a to-be-replaced cache line from a replacement set, where the replacement set includes at least two cache lines; and the cache controller eliminates the to-be-replaced cache line from the cache, and stores, in the cache, a cache line obtained from the destination address. According to the cache management method, system overheads of cache line replacement can be reduced, and cache line replacement efficiency can be improved.
