Abstract:
Provided are a method and apparatus for performing error handling operations using error signals A first error signal is asserted on an error pin on a bus to signal to a host memory controller that error handling operations are being performed by a memory module controller in response to detecting an error. Error handling operations are performed to return the bus to an initial state in response to detecting the error. A second error signal is asserted on the error pin on the bus to signal that error handling operations have completed and the bus is returned to the initial state.
Abstract:
A memory controller transmits a control signal to a memory module, where the memory controller continuously transmits a clock signal to the memory module. The memory controller determines adjustments to the control signal with respect to the clock signal, by iteratively analyzing a strobe signal.
Abstract:
Provided are a device and computer readable storage medium for programming a memory module to initiate a training mode in which the memory module transmits continuous bit patterns on a side band lane of the bus interface; receiving the bit patterns over the bus interface; determining from the received bit patterns a transition of values in the bit pattern to determine a data eye between the determined transitions of the values; and determining a setting to control a phase interpolator to generate interpolated signals used to sample data within the determined data eye.

Abstract:
A mechanism is described for achieving high memory reliability, availability, and serviceability (RAS) according to one embodiment of the invention. A method of embodiments of the invention includes detecting a permanent failure of a first memory device of a plurality of memory devices of a first channel of a memory system at a computing system, and eliminating the first failure by merging a first error-correction code (ECC) locator device of the first channel with a second ECC locator device of a second channel, wherein merging is performed at the second channel.
