    摘要: A method is described that involves determining that utilization of a logical link has reached a first threshold. The logical link comprises a first number of active physical links. The method also involves inactivating one or more of the physical links to produce a second number of active physical links. The second number is less than the first number. The method also involves determining that the second number of active physical links have not been utilized for a period of time and inactivating another set of links.

    摘要: The invention comprises an apparatus and method of prefetching from a memory device having interleaved channels. The chipset prefetcher comprises a stride detector to detect a stride in a stream, a prefetch injector to insert prefetches onto the memory device, a channel mapper to map the prefetches to each channel of the memory device, a scheduler to schedule the prefetches onto the memory device in a DRAM-state aware manner, a throttling heuristic to scale the number of prefetches, and a prefetch data buffer to store prefetch data. The method of prefetching comprises tracking the state of streams, detecting a stride on one of the streams, selecting the stream with the stride for prefetch injection, enqueueing prefetches from the selected stream, mapping the prefetches to each of the interleaved channels, injecting the prefetches from the selected stream into each of the interleaved channels, and scheduling the prefetches onto the memory device in a DRAM-state aware manner.

    摘要: Apparatus and method to receive new requests for write transactions; compare rank, bank and page of new requests to those already stored and assemble chains of write commands directed to the same rank, bank and page; select and transmit write commands from one chain at a time until each chain is done; and select a next chain of write commands to transmit, while creating and using a write page closing hint to determine when a change between pages of a given rank and bank should bring about the preemptive closing of a page to minimize incidents of incurring lengthy page miss delays.

    摘要: Embodiments of the present invention provide an algorithm for scheduling read and write transactions to memory out of order to improve command and data bus utilization and gain performance over a range of workloads. In particular, memory transactions are sorted into queues so that they do not have page conflict with each other and are scheduled from these queues out of order in accordance with read and write scheduling algorithms to optimize latency.
