摘要:
A memory controller uses a scheme to retire two entries from a replay queue due to a single non-error response. Advantageously, entries in a replay queue may be retired earlier than conventional systems, minimizing the size of the replay queue.

Embodiments of the invention are generally directed to systems, methods, and apparatuses for a resource power controller. In some embodiments, an integrated circuit includes a resource power controller to control whether a resource is in an up state or a down state. In some embodiments, the resource power controller heuristically estimates when to return the resource to an up state based, at least in part, on an estimate of a gap size.

A bed extender apparatus for use with a truck bed of a vehicle such as a pickup truck. The bed extender includes a center wall having a pair of uprights at opposite ends thereof. A pair of end walls are pivotably coupled to the uprights and can be folded down over the center wall when the bed extender is not in use, or attached to sidewalls of the truck bed to place the bed extender in a bed extending configuration. The center wall is secured to an inside surface of a tailgate of the vehicle by a pair of mounting assemblies. The mounting assemblies allow the bed extender to be quickly slidably detached from the truck bed when not needed. The bed extender can also be installed within the truck bed to provide an article restraining function.

A method and system to improve the operations of a registered memory module. In one embodiment of the invention, the registered memory module allows asynchronous read and write operations when a clock circuit in the registered memory module is being activated. In another embodiment of the invention, the registered memory module allows enabling or disabling of its clock circuit without any interruption of its operation. When the clock circuit in the registered memory module is disabled, the power consumption of the registered memory module can be reduced. In yet another embodiment of the invention, the registered memory module is allowed to enter or exit an asynchronous operation mode without entering or exiting a self-refresh or pre-charge power down operation mode of the registered memory module.

A memory agent may include a first memory channel interface and a second memory channel, both with unidirectional links, and logic to synchronize a signal processed by the first memory channel interface with a signal processed by the second memory channel interface. An embodiment of a method may include synchronizing a signal on a first memory channel with unidirectional links with a signal on a second memory channel with unidirectional links.

A bed extender apparatus adapted for use with a pickup truck bed to functionally enlarge the useable cargo area within the truck bed when a tailgate is in a lowered position. The bed extender includes a center wall which is pivotably mounted to an inner surface of the tailgate, and which can be pivoted into an upright position once the tailgate is moved into a lowered position. A pair of end walls are pivotably secured to opposite ends of the center wall. Each end wall can be pivoted out to a position extending perpendicular to the center wall once the center wall is in its raised or operative position. Each of the end walls can then be secured to an associated one of the vertical walls of the pickup truck bed. A principal advantage of the bed extender is that the end walls and center wall each include a plurality of members which, when the end walls are folded against the center wall, form an extremely compact arrangement which takes up virtually no appreciable cargo space within the pickup truck bed. The bed extender also forms an extremely aerodynamically efficient structure when in use.

A microprocessor is provided with circuitry for receiving JTAG and ICE test control signals through JTAG test ports and for synchronizing the test signals to a chip clock signal. Test signals synchronized to an external JTAG device are processed internally by an ICE of the microprocessor chip once the test signals are synchronized with the chip clock rate. To this end, the microprocessor is provided with a synchronizer which receives the chip clock signal, a JTAG control signal, and a JTAG reset signal, and outputs a synchronized control signal. The synchronizer includes an unclocked SR flip-flop for sampling the JTAG control signal, and two or more DR flip-flops for synchronizing the JTAG control signal to the chip clock signal. The synchronizer may be configured to generate a control signal pulse or a control signal level. The synchronizer is protocol independent, i.e., the clock rate of the JTAG test commands is independent of the chip clock. Hence, no protocol is required to connect the JTAG test command signals to the ICE. In particular, the synchronizer includes an input stage configured for allowing the JTAG control signal to be much slower than the core clock signal or much faster than the core clock signal.

An in-circuit emulator on an integrated circuit chip having an input pin for externally triggering on-chip break mechanisms. A break logic having an arm input is connected to an instruction pointer counter (IP counter). The break logic matches the IP counter to an instruction execution address. A counter is provided that once started runs a period of time and then shuts itself off, the length of the period of time being equal to the amount of time it takes for the break logic to arm after assertion of the arm input. A break logic control is connected to the input pin activates the arm input in response to signals on the input pin. The break logic control also starts the counter. The break logic control includes means connected to the arm input, to the counter, to the match output, and to the abrupt break input, operative upon the condition that the match output is asserted during the period of time, to inhibit the assertion of the arm input by the break logic control and asserts the abrupt break input to the abrupt break logic.

Mechanisms for exposing a protected memory address are provided. A processing device may store a data value at a protected memory address. The protected memory address may be a control register or a status register. The processing device may identify a mirror relationship between the protected memory address and an unprotected memory address and copy the data value from the protected memory address to the unprotected memory address. The unprotected memory address may be directly accessible via an external interface.
