Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for allocation in a victim cache system. An example apparatus includes a first cache storage, a second cache storage, a cache controller coupled to the first cache storage and the second cache storage and operable to receive a memory operation that specifies an address, determine, based on the address, that the memory operation evicts a first set of data from the first cache storage, determine that the first set of data is unmodified relative to an extended memory, and cause the first set of data to be stored in the second cache storage.

Abstract: The level one memory controller maintains a local copy of the cacheability bit of each memory attribute register. The level two memory controller is the initiator of all configuration read/write requests from the CPU. Whenever a configuration write is made to a memory attribute register, the level one memory controller updates its local copy of the memory attribute register.

Abstract: This invention addresses implements a range of interesting technologies into a single block. Each DSP CPU has a streaming engine. The streaming engines include: a SE to L2 interface that can request 512 bits/cycle from L2; a loose binding between SE and L2 interface, to allow a single stream to peak at 1024 bits/cycle; one-way coherence where the SE sees all earlier writes cached in system, but not writes that occur after stream opens; full protection against single-bit data errors within its internal storage via single-bit parity with semi-automatic restart on parity error.
