Disclosed herein is a miss handler for a multi-channel cache memory, and a method that includes determining a need to update a multi-channel cache memory due at least to one of an occurrence of a cache miss or a data prefetch being needed. The method further includes operating a multi-channel cache miss handler to update at least one cache channel storage of the multi-channel cache memory from a main memory.

Disclosed herein is a channel controller for a multi-channel cache memory, and a method that includes receiving a memory address associated with a memory access request to a main memory of a data processing system; translating the memory address to form a first access portion identifying at least one partition of a multi-channel cache memory, and at least one further access portion, where the at least one partition includes at least one channel; and applying the at least one further access portion to the at least one channel of the multi-channel cache memory.

摘要:
A method, apparatus, and software product allow signalling toward a multi-channel memory subsystem within an application processing architecture, and routing of that signalling via a single sandbox which provides memory protection by controlling memory usage and blocking the signalling if it is unauthorized. The signalling via the sandbox leads to a plurality of different memory locations, and the sandbox is an intermediary for substantially all execution memory accesses to the multi-channel memory subsystem.

Systems, apparatuses and methods for efficient logical memory management using centralized memory management. One embodiment involves allocating a first memory region to a first subsystem, generating a region code associated with the allocated memory region, storing the region code in connection with an address of the memory region, and defining the first subsystem as a first owner for the memory region by storing a unique subsystem identifier together with the region code in a parameter table. In this manner, a memory region may be globally addressed by its region code and an ownership to a subsystem is defined and stored.
