    摘要: In an embodiment, a model may be created using a register-transfer level (RTL) representation (or other cycle-accurate representation) of the controller and the circuitry in the communication fabric to the controller. The request sources may be replaced by transactors, which may generate transactions to test the performance of the fabric and controller. Accordingly, only the designs of the controller and the fabric circuitry may be needed to model performance in this embodiment. In an embodiment, at least some of the transactors may be behavioral transactors that attempt to mimic the operation of corresponding request sources. Other transactors may be statistical distributions, in some embodiments. In an embodiment, the transactors may include a transaction generator (e.g. behavioral or statistical) and a protocol translator configured to convert generated transactions to the communication protocol in use at the point that the transactor is connected to the fabric.

    摘要: An apparatus includes a storage location and a write monitor circuit coupled to the storage location. The storage location is configured to store a write response indicator which is capable of indicating a reception of at least one write response. Each write response indicates that a corresponding write has reached a target device of that write. The write monitor circuit is configured to update the write response indicator in response to receiving an indication of a first write response. A computer accessible medium may comprises instructions which, when executed: (i) initialize the write response indicator; and (ii) issue one or more writes to a target device, wherein the target device is configured to response to each of the writes with a write response to be indicated by the write response indicator.

    摘要: Various techniques are provided for processing image data acquired using a digital image sensor. In accordance with aspects of the present disclosure, one such technique may relate to the processing of image data in a system that supports multiple image sensors. In one embodiment, the image processing system may include control circuitry configured to determine whether a device is operating in a single sensor mode (one active sensor) or a dual sensor mode (two active sensors). When operating in the single sensor mode, data may be provided directly to a front-end pixel processing unit from the sensor interface of the active sensor. When operating in a dual sensor mode, the image frames from the first and second sensors are provided to the front-end pixel processing unit in an interleaved manner. For instance, in one embodiment, the image frames from the first and second sensors are written to a memory, and then read out to the front-end pixel processing unit in an interleaved manner.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for programming instruction issuing rules for instructions residing among various virtual channels, as well as the same virtual channel of an I/O bus interface for a system-on-a-chip processor. In the method and apparatus of the present invention both intra-virtual channel dependencies and inter-virtual channel dependencies are fully programmable, thereby offering significant advantages over prior art I/O interfaces. The method and apparatus of the present invention is broadly comprised of a system for managing data transactions between a first bus and a second bus. A first transaction conversion module is operably connected to the first bus and is operable to receive transactions from the first bus and a first format and to convert those transactions into an internal format. An ordering rules logic module is operably connected to the first transaction conversion module and is further operable to control issuing of transactions in accordance with a dependency relationship between the individual transactions. The ordering rules logic module generates validated transactions that are provided to a second conversion transaction module which is operably connected to the second bus. The ordering rules logic module of the present invention is fully programmable and, therefore, does not need to be redesigned when the data processing system is adapted to operate on a new bus system.
