摘要： Circuits, methods, and apparatus that allow the elimination of a frame buffer connected directly to a graphics processing unit. The graphics processing unit includes an on-chip memory. Following system power-up or reset, the GPU initially renders comparatively low-resolution images to the on-chip memory for display. Afterward, the GPU renders images, which are typically higher resolution, and stores them in a system memory, apart from the graphics processing unit. The on-chip memory, which is no longer needed for image storage, instead stores address information, referred to as page tables, identifying the location of data stored by the GPU in the separate system memory.

摘要： Circuits, methods, and apparatus that reduce or eliminate system memory accesses to retrieve address translation information. In one example, these accesses are reduced or eliminated by pre-populating a graphics TLB with entries that are used to translate virtual addresses used by a GPU to physical addresses used by a system memory. Translation information is maintained by locking or restricting entries in the graphics TLB that are needed for display access. This may be done by limiting access to certain locations in the graphics TLB, by storing flags or other identifying information in the graphics TLB, or by other appropriate methods. In another example, memory space is allocated by a system BIOS for a GPU, which stores a base address and address range. Virtual addresses in the address range are translated by adding them to the base address.

摘要： A cache shared by multiple clients implements a client specific policy for replacing entries in the event of a cache miss. A request from any client can hit any entry in the cache. For purposes of replacing entries, at least of the clients is restricted, and when a cache miss results from a request by the restricted client, the entry to be replaced is selected from a fixed subset of the cache entries. When a cache misses results from a request by any client other than the restricted client, any cache entry, including a restricted entry, can be selected to be replaced.
摘要翻译：多个客户端共享的缓存实现了客户端特定的策略，用于在高速缓存未命中的情况下替换条目。来自任何客户端的请求可以访问缓存中的任何条目。为了替换条目，至少客户端被限制，并且当由受限客户端的请求导致高速缓存未命中时，从缓存条目的固定子集中选择要替换的条目。当缓存从除受限客户端之外的任何客户端的请求中忽略结果时，可以选择任何高速缓存条目（包括受限条目）进行替换。

摘要： A repository, a loader, a model generator, a constraint generator, and a number of timing analysis tools, are provided for managing timing requirement specifications and measurements, and generating timing models and constraints of a VLSI circuit. The repository stores the timing specifications and measurements for each pin instances and each flow through arc instances. Timing specifications and measurements are identified by their classes including at least one current specification class and at least one measurement class for one timing analysis tool. Additionally, the repository stores a number of characteristics for each pin instance, the pin compositions of each net, and the hierarchical relationship of the functional block instances. The loader loads the various information into the repository. The timing model generator generates the timing models for the various functional blocks, using the stored information in the repository. The timing constraint generator in cooperation with the timing model generator and at least one timing analysis tool generates the timing constraints for the various functional block instances, using the stored information in the repository, the generated timing models of the functional blocks, and a number of timing analysis scripts.
