摘要:
In accordance with various embodiments of the present invention, a cache-equipped semi-conductor device is provided with enhanced error detection logic to detect a first location-independent error within an area of the cache memory and prevent further use of the area if the error is determined to be the second consecutive error associated with a common area.
摘要:
A centralized interrupt controller with a single copy of APIC logic provides APIC interrupt delivery services for all processing units of a multi-sequencer chip or system. An interrupt sequencer block of the centralized interrupt controller schedules the interrupt services according to a fairness scheme. At least one embodiment of the centralized interrupt controller also includes firewall logic to filter out transmission of selected interrupt messages. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
