摘要： A system and method are provided for efficiently processing data with a cache in a computer system. The computer system has a processor, a cache and a system memory. The processor issues a data request for streaming data. The streaming data has one or more small data portions. The system memory is in communication with the processor. The system memory has a specific area for storing the streaming data. The cache is coupled to the processor. The cache has a predefined area locked for the streaming data. A cache controller is coupled to the cache and is in communication with both the processor and the system memory to transmit at least one small data portion of the streaming data from the specific area of the system memory to the predefined area of the cache when the one small data portion is not found in the predefined area of the cache.

摘要： Disclosed is a coherent cache system that operates in conjunction with non-homogeneous processing units. A set of processing units of a first configuration has conventional cache and directly accesses common or shared system physical and virtual address memory through the use of a conventional MMU (Memory Management Unit). Additional processors of a different configuration and/or other devices that need to access system memory are configured to store accessed data in compatible caches. Each of the caches is compatible with a given protocol coherent memory management bus interspersed between the caches and the system memory.

摘要： A system and method are provided for directly accessing a cache for data. A data transfer request is sent to a system bus for transferring data to a system memory. The data transfer request is snooped. A snoop request is sent to a cache. It is determined whether the snoop request has a valid entry in the cache. Upon determining that the snoop request has a valid entry in the cache, the data is caught and sent to the cache for update.

摘要： Disclosed is an apparatus which deactivates both the AC as well as the DC component of power for various functions in a CPU. The CPU partitions dataflow registers and arithmetic units such that voltage can be removed from the upper portion of dataflow registers when the software is not utilizing same. Clock signals are also prevented from being applied to these non-utilized components. As an example, if a 64 bit CPU (processor unit) is to be used with both 32 and 64 bit software, the mentioned components may be partitioned in equal sized upper and lower portions. The logic signal for activating the removal of voltage may be obtained from a software-accessible architected control register designated as a machine state register in some CPUs. The same logic may be used in connection with removing voltage and clocks from other specialized functional components such as the floating point unit when software instructions do not presently require same.

摘要： In a data bus system which links a plurality of users, user access to the bus is provided by an arbiter which responds to a plurality of user requests for bus access by employing an adjustable priority scheme for granting access. When a user has access to the bus, the arbiter updates user priority by assigning the lowest priority to the current user and upwardly adjusting the priorities of all currently-requesting users.

摘要： A synchronous parallel data bus particularly adapted for use in a data processing system where it is necessary to transfer data over long distances. The physical connection between communicating units includes a plurality of wires adapted to carry the parallel data signal and a wire which carries a clock signal to the remote unit. When data is transmitted from the remote unit to the base unit, the clock signal which originated at the base unit and was transmitted to the remote unit is "turned around" and transmitted back to the base unit for use in receiving the data from the remote unit.

摘要： This invention provides a dual usage cache reload buffer (CRB) to hold both demand loads as well as prefetch loads. A new form of a data cache block touch (DCBT) instruction specifies which level of the cache hierarchy to prefetch data into. A first asynchronous form of a DCBT instruction is issued to prefetch a stream of data into a L2 cache. A second synchronous form of a DCBT instruction is used to prefetch data from the L2 cache to the CRB in the main CPU, which will bypass the L1 data cache and forward data directly to the register file. This CRB has a dual usage and is used to hold both normal cache reloads as well as the aforementioned prefetched cache lines.

摘要： A system and method for improving arbitration of a plurality of events that may require access to a cache is disclosed. In a first aspect, the method and system provide dynamic arbitration. The first aspect comprises first logic for determining whether at least one of the plurality of events requires access to the cache and for outputting at least one signal in response thereto. Second logic coupled to the first logic determines the priority of each of the plurality of events in response to the at least one signal and outputs a second signal specifying the priority of each event. Third logic coupled to the second logic grants access to the cache in response to the second signal. A second aspect of the method and system provides user programmable arbitration. The second aspect comprises a storage unit which allows the user to input information indicating the priority of at least one of the plurality of events and outputs a first signal in response to the information. In the second aspect, first logic coupled to the storage unit determines the priority of each of the plurality of events in response to the first signal and outputs a second signal indicating the priority of each event. Second logic coupled to the first logic grants access to the cache in response to the second signal.
