摘要： In a data processing system capable of concurrently executing multiple hardware threads of execution, an intermediate address translation unit in a processing unit translates an effective address for a memory access into an intermediate address. A cache memory is accessed utilizing the intermediate address. In response to a miss in cache memory, the intermediate address is translated into a real address by a real address translation unit that performs address translation for multiple hardware threads of execution. The system memory is accessed with the real address.

摘要： A mechanism is provided in a cache for providing a read and write aware cache. The mechanism partitions a large cache into a read-often region and a write-often region. The mechanism considers read/write frequency in a non-uniform cache architecture replacement policy. A frequently written cache line is placed in one of the farther banks. A frequently read cache line is placed in one of the closer banks. The size ratio between read-often and write-often regions may be static or dynamic. The boundary between the read-often region and the write-often region may be distinct or fuzzy.
摘要翻译：在缓存中提供了一种机制，用于提供读写感知高速缓存。该机制将大型缓存分区分为常读区域和经常写区域。该机制将读/写频率视为非均匀缓存架构替换策略。经常写入的高速缓存行放置在更远的存储区之一中。经常读取的高速缓存行被放置在其中一个较近的存储体中。常读区域和经常写区域之间的大小比可以是静态的或动态的。经常读区域和经常写区域之间的边界可能是不同的或模糊的。

摘要： A mechanism is provided in a virtual machine monitor for fine grained cache allocation in a shared cache. The mechanism partitions a cache tag into a most significant bit (MSB) portion and a least significant bit (LSB) portion. The MSB portion of the tags is shared among the cache lines in a set. The LSB portion of the tags is private, one per cache line. The mechanism allows software to set the MSB portion of tags in a cache to allocate sets of cache lines. The cache controller determines whether a cache line is locked based on the MSB portion of the tag.

摘要： A virtual address scheme for improving performance and efficiency of memory accesses of sparsely-stored data items in a cached memory system is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a special address translation unit is used to translate sets of non-contiguous addresses in real memory into contiguous blocks of addresses in an “intermediate address space.” This intermediate address space is a fictitious or “virtual” address space, but is distinguishable from the virtual address space visible to application programs, and in user-level memory operations, effective addresses seen/manipulated by application programs are translated into intermediate addresses by an additional address translation unit for memory caching purposes. This scheme allows non-contiguous data items in memory to be assembled into contiguous cache lines for more efficient caching/access (due to the perceived spatial proximity of the data from the perspective of the processor).

摘要： A method and an apparatus for performing just-in-time data prefetching within a data processing system comprising a processor, a cache or prefetch buffer, and at least one memory storage device. The apparatus comprises a prefetch engine having means for issuing a data prefetch request for prefetching a data cache line from the memory storage device for utilization by the processor. The apparatus further comprises logic/utility for dynamically adjusting a prefetch distance between issuance by the prefetch engine of the data prefetch request and issuance by the processor of a demand (load request) targeting the data/cache line being returned by the data prefetch request, so that a next data prefetch request for a subsequent cache line completes the return of the data/cache line at effectively the same time that a demand for that subsequent data/cache line is issued by the processor.

摘要： A system and method of managing cache hierarchies with adaptive mechanisms. A preferred embodiment of the present invention includes, in response to selecting a data block for eviction from a memory cache (the source cache) out of a collection of memory caches, examining a data structure to determine whether an entry exists that indicates that the data block has been evicted from the source memory cache, or another peer cache, to a slower cache or memory and subsequently retrieved from the slower cache or memory into the source memory cache or other peer cache. Also, a preferred embodiment of the present invention includes, in response to determining the entry exists in the data structure, selecting a peer memory cache out of the collection of memory caches at the same level in the hierarchy to receive the data block from the source memory cache upon eviction.
