    • A computer system having a core logic chipset that functions as a bridge between an Accelerated Graphics Port ("AGP") bus device such as a graphics controller, and a host processor and computer system memory wherein a Graphics Address Remapping Table ("GART table") is used by the core logic chipset to remap virtual memory addresses used by the AGP graphics controller into physical memory addresses that reside in the computer system memory. The GART table enables the AGP graphics controller to work in contiguous virtual memory address space, but actually use non-contiguous blocks or pages of physical system memory to store textures, command lists and the like. Contiguous virtual memory address space must be allocated for the AGP device within the addressable memory space of the computer system, typically 4 gigabytes using 32 bit addressing. The required amount of virtual memory address space for AGP is determined from the AGP device and the information is put into a register of the core logic so that the computer system software may allocate the required amount of memory and assign a base address thereto during computer system startup or POST.
    • 具有核心逻辑芯片组的计算机系统,其作为诸如图形控制器的加速图形端口(“AGP”)总线设备与主机处理器和计算机系统存储器之间的桥接,其中图形地址重映射表(“GART表” )被核心逻辑芯片组用于将由AGP图形控制器使用的虚拟存储器地址重新映射到位于计算机系统存储器中的物理存储器地址。 GART表使AGP图形控制器能够在连续的虚拟内存地址空间中工作,但实际上使用不连续的物理系统内存块或页面来存储纹理,命令列表等。 必须为计算机系统的可寻址存储空间内的AGP设备分配连续的虚拟内存地址空间,通常使用32位寻址4 GB。 从AGP设备确定AGP所需的虚拟内存地址空间量,并将信息放入核心逻辑的寄存器,以便计算机系统软件可以在计算机系统中分配所需量的存储器并分配基地址 启动或POST。

    • A computer system having a core logic chipset that functions as a bridge between an Accelerated Graphics Port ("AGP") bus device such as a graphics controller, and a host processor and computer system memory wherein a Graphics Address Remapping Table ("GART table") is used by the core logic chipset to remap virtual memory addresses used by the AGP graphics controller into physical memory addresses that reside in the computer system memory. The GART table enables the AGP graphics controller to work in contiguous virtual memory address space, but actually use non-contiguous blocks or pages of physical system memory to store textures, command lists and the like. The GART table is made up of a plurality of entries, each entry comprising an address pointer to a base address of a page of graphics data in memory, and feature flags that may be used to customize the associated page. The core logic chipset caches a subset of the most recently used GART table entries to increase AGP performance when performing the address translation. The core logic chipset uses a two-level GART cache comprising a plurality of first-level GART caches and a common second level GART cache. Each of the plurality of first-level GART caches are coupled to a respective interface in the computer system and effectively de-couple the different interface GART address translations so that GART cache thrashing and cache arbitration delays are substantially reduced. Separate decoupled first-level GART caches for each interface allow concurrent GART address translations among the different interfaces. Individual first-level GART caches may be fined tuned for each associated interface.
    • 具有核心逻辑芯片组的计算机系统,其作为诸如图形控制器的加速图形端口(“AGP”)总线设备与主机处理器和计算机系统存储器之间的桥接,其中图形地址重映射表(“GART表” )被核心逻辑芯片组用于将由AGP图形控制器使用的虚拟存储器地址重新映射到位于计算机系统存储器中的物理存储器地址。 GART表使AGP图形控制器能够在连续的虚拟内存地址空间中工作,但实际上使用不连续的物理系统内存块或页面来存储纹理,命令列表等。 GART表由多个条目组成,每个条目包括指向存储器中的图形数据页面的基地址的地址指针,以及可用于定制关联页面的特征标记。 核心逻辑芯片组缓存最近使用的GART表项的子集,以在执行地址转换时增加AGP性能。 核心逻辑芯片组使用包括多个第一级GART高速缓存和公共第二级GART高速缓存的双级GART缓存。 多个第一级GART高速缓存中的每一个耦合到计算机系统中的相应接口,并且有效地解耦不同的接口GART地址转换,使得GART高速缓存颠簸和高速缓存仲裁延迟显着降低。 对于每个接口,单独的解耦第一级GART缓存允许在不同接口之间进行并发GART地址转换。 单个第一级GART缓存可能会针对每个相关联的接口进行调整。
