摘要:
Machine-readable media, methods, and apparatus are described to stream data between a codec and a buffer in system memory and to maintain a value in system memory that is indicative of a current position in the buffer. In some embodiments, an audio controller streams the data across an isochronous channel having relaxed ordering rules to the buffer in the system memory and updates the value indicative of current position via a write across the isochronous channel to the system memory.

A semiconductor component is which is capable of controlling transmission of information between a plurality of semiconductor components in a computer system. The semiconductor component comprises of a first signal generator capable of sending a signal of a first type over a shared line and a second signal generator capable of sending a signal of a second type over the line. It also comprises of a first logic device capable of controlling the first signal generator and a second logic device capable of controlling the second signal generator.

An apparatus for secured playback is presented. In one embodiment, the apparatus includes a controller that includes a key derivation module to manage authentication and key derivation. In one embodiment, the apparatus provides a video decryption key to a graphics engine if video data portions in a data stream are retrievable without having to decrypt the data stream. In one embodiment, the apparatus also includes a decryption module to decrypt a part of data in conjunction with an encryption key to generate video information and video data. The controller then writes an encrypted version of the video data to a video buffer of a graphics engine.

Embodiments of apparatuses, methods, and systems for providing multiple virtual device controllers by redirecting an interrupt from a physical device controller are disclosed. In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a processor, a physical device controller, and virtualization logic. The virtualization logic is to receive a first interrupt from the physical device controller, and in response, send a second interrupt to the processor from one of a plurality of virtual device controllers.
摘要:
Embodiments of the present invention relate to accessing a first pair of adjacent data blocks using a first channel of a dual channel memory device; and simultaneously accessing a second pair of adjacent data blocks using a second channel of the memory device, the second pair being spaced apart from the first pair by a predetermined interval.

A method and apparatus for a source synchronous address receiver for a system bus. In one embodiment, a flow-through between a system bus address input to a memory bus is controlled by two inputs: one is a source synchronous address strobe directing the receiver to latch the address and store data, while the other is a protocol signal, signaling the beginning of the address transfer. A flow-through circuit generates an enable signal in response to a digital address strobe signal and a digital address select signal to generate, prior to receipt of the address packet, an enable signal for a flow-through gate having the address packet and the enable signal as inputs. The flow-through gate provides the first component of the digital address packet (transaction address) to a chipset once the digital address packet appears on the address pin. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A method for controlling device temperature. The method involves determining access rate to a component, comparing the access rate with a predetermined threshold modified by a weighted value and controlling the temperature of the component through corrective action.
摘要:
In a bus resource having an outbound pipe for processing both non-posted and posted transactions in a FIFO manner, a rejected non-posted transaction at the head of the outbound pipe is moved aside and into an auxiliary buffer to avoid a potential blockage of the outbound pipe. The auxiliary buffer is for holding transaction information and return data of the rejected non-posted transaction. The rejected transaction is eventually completed from the auxiliary buffer as determined by an arbiter.
