摘要： A system and method for transmitting data, using a source synchronous clocking scheme, over a communication (or data) link. A source synchronous driver (SSD) receives a micropacket of parallel data and serializes this data for transfer over the communication link. The serial data is transferred onto the communication link at a rate four times as fast as the parallel data is received by the SSD. A pair of source synchronous clocks are also transmitted across the communication link along with the serial data. The pair of clocks are the true complement of one another. A source synchronous receiver (SSR) receives the serial data and latches it into a first set of registers using the source synchronous clocks. The serial data is then latched into a second set of registers in parallel. The second set of registers are referred to as "ping-pong" registers. The ping-pong registers store the deserialized data. In parallel, a handshake signal, which is synchronized to the clock on the receiving end of the communication link indicates that there is a stream of n contiguous data words being received by the SSR. The ping pong registers guarantee that the deserialized data is available (valid) for two clock cycles. This provides a sufficient window to account for the synchronizer uncertainty on the handshake signal, while introducing minimum latency.
摘要翻译：一种用于使用源同步计时方案通过通信（或数据）链路发送数据的系统和方法。源同步驱动器（SSD）接收并行数据的微包并将该数据串行化以便通过通信链路传送。将串行数据以与SSD接收的并行数据相同速度的速率传送到通信链路上。一系列源同步时钟也与串行数据一起在通信链路上传输。这对时钟是彼此的真正补充。源同步接收器（SSR）使用源同步时钟接收串行数据并将其锁存到第一组寄存器中。然后将串行数据并行锁存到第二组寄存器中。第二组寄存器称为“乒乓”寄存器。乒乓寄存器存储反序列化数据。并行地，与通信链路的接收端上的时钟同步的握手信号指示存在由SSR接收的n个相邻数据字的流。乒乓寄存器保证两个时钟周期的反序列化数据可用（有效）。这提供了足够的窗口来解释握手信号上的同步器不确定性，同时引入最小延迟。

摘要： A synchronous processor unit is divided into two sections, and each separately clocked by different clock signals. One section, containing an instruction execution unit and memory for storage of instructions and data, is clocked at a higher frequency, while the other section, containing those elements of a processor unit less frequently used, are clocked with a slower-frequencied clock. The elements of each section are intercoupled by separate and independent data buses, and selectively to one another by a buffer unit. The clock signals used by both sections are produced by a clock-generating unit which also monitors the instructions being executed by the instruction execution unit. When an instruction requiring communication between the two sections is detected, at least one predetermined transition of each of the fast and slow clocks are synchronized, and during this synchronization the separate buses of each section are coupled to one another by the buffer unit for information exchanges therebetween.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are disclosed for distributing fault indications and maintaining and using a data structure indicating faults to route traffic in a packet switching system. In one embodiment, a packet switching system detects faults and propagates indications of these faults to the input interfaces of a packet switch, so the packet switch can adapt the selection of a route over which to send a particular packet. Faults are identified by various components of the packet switching system and relayed to one or more switching components to generate a broadcast packet destined for all input ports (i.e., to each I/O interface in a packet switch having folded input and output interfaces). Other embodiments, generate one or more multicast or unicast packets. The I/O interface maintains one or more data structures indicating the state of various portions of the packet switching system. In one embodiment, an output availability table is maintained indicating over which path a particular destination may be reached, as well as a link availability vector indicating which output likes of the input interface may be currently used. Using these as masks against possible routes in a fully functional system, the packet switching component (e.g., I/O interface) can identify which routes are currently available for reaching the destination of the received packet. These routes can then be selected between using one of numerous deterministic and non-deterministic methods.

The first memory bank is formed from the first memory bank portion and the third memory bank portion. The second memory bank is formed from the second memory bank portion and the fourth memory bank portion.

摘要： A level sensitive scan design (LSSD) diagnostic apparatus for a data processing component. Each scan unit in a shift register chain comprises a plurality of level sensitive elements, e.g., data latches, which transfer signals from their input terminals to their output terminals in response to a "Phase B" pulse train. A multiplexer is connected to each data latch for communicating run data to the input terminal of each data latch in a normal mode of operation. In test mode, the multiplexer communicates signals from the output terminal of one data latch to the input terminal of an adjacent data latch, so that the data latch signals are serially communicated through the resulting latch chain.In order to prevent the test data from propagating uncontrollably through the serially connected latches, each multiplexer includes a test latch disposed between the test data input of the multiplexer and the output terminal of the preceding data latch in the chain. The test latch is controlled by a "Phase A" pulse train signal which is interleaved with the phase B pulse train.

摘要： According to the invention, methods and apparatus are disclosed for selecting one of multiple of paths between two points over which to route a data item based on the destination of the data item and the traffic between the two points over the multiple paths. A switching system can use the disclosed methods and apparatus to more efficiently distribute data packets among switching fabrics than currently accomplished by known techniques. In one implementation, distribution cycles have been established for sending data between two points, where each path between the endpoints is used a predetermined number of times (e.g., one, two) within each cycle. To economize the amount of traffic data collected, the multiple paths can be partitioned into subsets for which traffic data is maintained only for the current subset. Additionally, the distribution of traffic between the two points can be further partitioned into traffic of a particular type or priority between the two points.

摘要： A multiprocessor computer system and method for maintaining coherency between virtual-to-physical memory translations of multiple requestors in the system. A poison bit is associated with a memory block in the system. The poison bit is set to indicate that a virtual-to-physical memory translation for the memory block is stale. An exception is generated in response to an access by one of the requestors to the memory block if the poison bit is set, thereby indicating to the requestor that the virtual-to-physical memory translation entry for the memory block is stale. The virtual-to-physical memory translation for the memory block is then updated with a virtual memory translation corresponding to a new physical location for the memory block. In an embodiment having a cache-based multiprocessor system, the method further comprises the step of invalidating all cached copies of the memory block. In this case, the invalidating step and the setting step must be performed as an atomic operation.
