    摘要: An information processing system capable of performance measurement by the use of a small amount of mounted hardware. The information processing system having central processors installed therein comprises a control circuit, and a performance measurement validation register for specifying whether a performance measurement function is valid or invalid. In a case where the validity of the measurement function has been specified by the register, the control circuit operates one loop in a duplex configuration as a performance measurement facility. At this time, counter #1-counter #3 are used as counters for totalizing performance information. On the other hand, in a case where the invalidity of the measurement function has been specified, both loops in the duplex configuration are operated as the central processors. At this time, the counter #1-the counter #3 are used as timer counters for controlling buses.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for controlling interruption of a processor. When an external interrupt request having a higher priority level than a current program level is detected in the course of the execution of an instruction, the processing is interrupted and an interexecution interruption is issued. The program level is fixed in this interruption so that the interrupt request is processed as a normal interrupt request at an interruption destination, and the processing is resumed from the interrupted point at a second return instruction after the interrupt processing.

    摘要: A logical cache memory has a logical tag and a physical tag as address tags for comparison, and status information representing their status. Data status and block status are registered at the same entry position. When access is made using a logical address, access is made to the logical tag to detect the existence of data, and when access is made using a physical address, access is made to the physical tag using an offset portion which does not depend on address conversion, to detect the existence of data.

    摘要: An interruption signal from a common input/output device is coupled to all processors through a common bus, and each processor issues to the common bus its own interruption receipt acceptance or negation state and the respective processors watch and decide individually interruption receipt acceptance or negation states on the common bus of the individual processors. Only one of processors which are ready to accept the receipt of interruption is allowed to accept the receipt of an interruption signal from the common input/output device in accordance with a predetermined priority.

    摘要: A computer system has a plurality of processing units (2-1,2-2,2-n) connected via one or more system buses (1-1,1-2). Each processing unit (2-1,2-2,2-n) has three or more processors (20-1,20-2,20-3) on a common support board (PL) and controlled by a common clock unit (1000). The three processors (20-1,20-2,20-3) perform the same operation and a fault in a processor (20-1,20-2, 20-3) is detected by comparison of the operations of the three processors (20-1,20-2,20-3). If one processor (20-1,20-2,20-3) fails, the operation can continue in the other two processors (20-1,20-2,20-3) of the processing unit (2-1,2-2,2-n), at least temporarily, before replacement of the entire processing unit (2-1,2-2, 2-n). Furthermore, the processing unit (2-1,2-2,2-n) may have a plurality of clocks (A,B) within the clock unit (1000), with a switching arrangement so that the processors (20-1,20-2,20-n) normally receive clock pulses from a main clock (A), but receive pulses from an auxiliary clock (B) if the main clock (A) fails. Switching between the main and auxiliary clock (A,B) involves comparison of the pulse duration from the clocks (A,B). Additionally, a plurality of cache memories (220,221) may be connected in common to the processors (20-1,20-2,20-3), so that failure of one cache memory (220,221) permits the processing unit (2-1,2-2,2-n) to continue to operate using the other cache memory (220,221). Coherence of the contents of the cache memories (220,221) may be achieved by direct comparison, and a comparison method can also be used to invalidate data in an internal cache memory (2020-1,2020-2,2020-3) of a processor (20-1,20-2,20-3) which differs from that in the external cache memory (220,221). Coherence of protocols may also ensure that data in caches (220,221) of the different processor units (2-1,2-2,2-n) are always correct.

    摘要: A high-speed information processing in the information processing unit having a multiplexed bus is provided. A unit having a bus grant is stored in the next lowest priority unit memory circuits, and in the next bus arbitration cycle, bus arbitration is carried out by setting the lowest priority to the unit stored in the next lowest priority unit memory circuits. When a fault occurs in one of a plurality of buses and then the faulty bus recovered a normal operation status, the bus status supervising circuits output has fault recovery detecting signals and match the memory contents of the next lowest priority unit memory circuits together. With the above arrangement, an average bus waiting time can be minimized and the bus waiting time can be limited.
