Abstract: Software instructions are executed on a processor within a computer system to configure a streaming engine with stream parameters to define a multidimensional array. The stream parameters define a size for each dimension of the multidimensional array and a pad value indicator. Data is fetched from a memory coupled to the streaming engine responsive to the stream parameters. A stream of vectors is formed for the multidimensional array responsive to the stream parameters from the data fetched from memory. A padded stream vector is formed that includes a specified pad value without accessing the pad value from system memory.

Abstract: An apparatus includes first CPU and second CPU cores, a L1 cache subsystem coupled to the first CPU core and comprising a L1 controller, and a L2 cache subsystem coupled to the L1 cache subsystem and to the second CPU core. The L2 cache subsystem includes a L2 memory and a L2 controller configured to operate in an aliased mode in response to a value in a memory map control register being asserted. In the aliased mode, the L2 controller receives a first request from the first CPU core directed to a virtual address in the L2 memory, receives a second request from the second CPU core directed to the virtual address in the L2 memory, directs the first request to a physical address A in the L2 memory, and directs the second request to a physical address B in the L2 memory.
