摘要:
An apparatus and method are described for performing partial memory mirroring operations. For example, one embodiment of a processor comprises: a processor core for generating a read or write transaction having a system memory address; a home agent identified to service the read or write transaction based on the system memory address; one or more target address decoders (TADs) associated with the home agent to determine whether the system memory address is within a mirrored memory region or a non-mirrored memory region, wherein: if the system memory address is within a mirrored memory region, then the one or more TADs identifying multiple mirrored memory channels for the read or write transaction; and if the system memory address is not within a mirrored memory region, then the one or more TADs identifying a single memory channel for the read or write transaction.
