Abstract: The disclosed embodiments relate to a computer system with a cache memory that supports tagless addressing. During operation, the system receives a request to perform a memory access, wherein the request includes a virtual address. In response to the request, the system performs an address-translation operation, which translates the virtual address into both a physical address and a cache address. Next, the system uses the physical address to access one or more levels of physically addressed cache memory, wherein accessing a given level of physically addressed cache memory involves performing a tag-checking operation based on the physical address. If the access to the one or more levels of physically addressed cache memory fails to hit on a cache line for the memory access, the system uses the cache address to directly index a cache memory, wherein directly indexing the cache memory does not involve performing a tag-checking operation and eliminates the tag storage overhead.

Abstract: Data-driven intelligent networking systems and methods are provided. The system can accommodate dynamic traffic with fast, effective flow control of individual applications and traffic flows in conjunction with an end host. The system can maintain state information of individual packet flows, which can be set up or released dynamically based on injected data. Each flow can be provided with a flow-specific input queue upon arriving at a switch. Packets of a respective flow can be acknowledged after reaching the egress point of the network, and the acknowledgement packets can be sent back to the ingress point of the flow along the same data path. As a result, an ingress edge switch can perform fine grain flow control of individual sources of the flows residing on an end host.

Abstract: A memory access engine is configured to receive a request comprising a command and to determine whether the command comprises an atomic command. If the command comprises the atomic command, the memory access engine determines whether the command includes a virtual address or a physical address. Based on determining that the command includes a virtual address, the memory access engine translates the virtual address to a corresponding physical address. The memory access engine determines an opcode included in the command and, based on the opcode, adds the command and the physical address to a particular queue of a plurality of queues. While a central processing unit (CPU) performs processing tasks, the memory access engine, based on the command, operates a memory fabric and, after receiving a message from the memory fabric indicating that the memory command has been completed, updates a status associated with the command to a completed status.

Abstract: A method performed by a coordinating entity in a disaggregated data center architecture wherein computing resources are separated in discrete resource pools and associated together to represent a functional server. The coordinating entity obtains a setup of processor cores that are coupled logically as the functional server, and determines an index indicating an identity of a cache coherency domain based on the obtained setup of processor cores. The coordinating entity further configures one or more communicating entities associated with the obtained setup of processor cores, to use the determined index when handling updated cache related data.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing multicast data transmission in a network having a plurality of switches arranged in a Dragonfly network topology, including: receiving a multicast transmission at an edge port of a switch and identifying the transmission as a network multicast transmission; creating an entry in a multicast table within the switch; routing the multicast transmission across the network to a plurality of destinations via a plurality of links, wherein at each of the links the multicast table is referenced to determine to which ports the multicast transmission should be forwarded; and changing, when necessary, the virtual channel used by each copy of the multicast transmission as the copy progresses through the network.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for “on the fly” routing of data transmissions in the presence of errors. Switches can establish flow channels corresponding to flows in the network. In response to encountering a critical error on a network link along a transmission path, a switch can generate an error acknowledgement. The switch can transmit the error acknowledgements to ingress ports upstream from the network link via the plurality of flow channels. By transmitting the error acknowledgement, it indicates that the network link where the critical error was encountered is a failed link to ingress ports upstream from the failed link. Subsequently, each ingress port upstream from the failed link can dynamically update the path of the plurality of flows that are upstream from the failed link such that the plurality of flows that are upstream from the failed link are routed in a manner that avoids the failed link.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for managing a data communication within a multi-level network having a plurality of switches organized as groups, with each group coupled to all other groups via global links, including: at each switch within the network, maintaining a global fault table identifying the links which lead only to faulty global paths, and when the data communication is received at a port of a switch, determine a destination for the data communication and, route the communication across the network using the global fault table to avoid selecting a port within the switch that would result in the communication arriving at a point in the network where its only path forward is across a global link that is faulty; wherein the global fault table is used for both a global minimal routing methodology and a global non-minimal routing methodology.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for efficiently routing data through a network having a plurality of switches configured in a fat-tree topology, including: receiving a data transmission comprising a plurality of packets at an edge port of the network, and routing the data transmission through the network with routing decisions based upon a routing table, wherein the routing table includes entries to effect routing decisions based upon a destination based hash function.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a system may support programmable hashing of address bits at a plurality of levels of granularity to map memory addresses to memory controllers and ultimately at least to memory devices. The hashing may be programmed to distribute pages of memory across the memory controllers, and consecutive blocks of the page may be mapped to physically distant memory controllers. In an embodiment, address bits may be dropped from each level of granularity, forming a compacted pipe address to save power within the memory controller. In an embodiment, a memory folding scheme may be employed to reduce the number of active memory devices and/or memory controllers in the system when the full complement of memory is not needed.
