    摘要： A method and system for messaging between processors and co-processors connected through a bus. The method permits a multi-thread system processor to request the services of a processor or co-processor located on the bus. Message control blocks are stored in a memory which identify the physical address of the target processor, as well as a memory location in the memory dedicated to the thread requesting the service. When the system processor requests service of a processor or co-processor, a DCR command is created pointing to the message control block. A message is built from information contained in the message control block or transferred to the processor or co-processor. The return address for the processor or co-processor message is concatenated with the thread number, so that the processor or co-processor can create a return message specifically identifying memory space dedicated to the requesting thread for storage of the response message.

    摘要： A method and system for identifying a data structure associated with a packet of data. A processor internal to a packet processor may extract one or more fields in a packet header field of a received packet of data to generate a search key. The internal processor may then be configured to select which table, e.g., routing table, quality of service table, filter table, needs to be accessed using the search key in order to process the received packet of data. A determination may then be made by the internal processor as to whether a CAM or a hash table and a Patricia Tree are used to identify the data structure associated with the received packet of data. Based on table definitions in a register, the internal processor may make such a determination.

    摘要： A prefetch mechanism using prefetch attributes is disclosed. In one aspect, an explicit request for data stored in a memory is provided, and a prefetch attribute in a page table entry associated with the explicit request is examined to determine whether to provide one or more prefetch requests based on the prefetch attribute. Another aspect includes determining dynamic prefetch attributes for use in prefetching data, in which prefetch attributes are adjusted based on memory access requests that target next sequential blocks of memory relative to the most recent previous access in a page of memory.

    摘要： A method, computer program product and system for facilitating inter-digital signal processing (DSP) data communications. A direct memory access (DMA) controller may be configured to facilitate transfers of data between a first and a second DSP processor core coupled to the DMA controller. The DMA controller may read a data structure, referred to as a “buffer descriptor block,” to perform the data transfer. The buffer descriptor block may store both a source address and a destination address indicating where the data is to be retrieved and stored. The buffer descriptor block may further store a value, e.g., number of bytes, indicating a size of the data to be transferred. The DMA controller may then transfer the data located at the source address in the first DSP processor core, with a size, e.g., number of bytes, indicated from the buffer descriptor block, to the destination address in the second DSP processor core.

    摘要： Access arbiters are used to prioritize read and write access requests to individual memory banks in DRAM memory devices, particularly fast cycle DRAMs. This serves to optimize the memory bandwidth available for the read and the write operations by avoiding consecutive accesses to the same memory bank and by minimizing dead cycles. The arbiter first divides DRAM accesses into write accesses and read accesses. The access requests are divided into accesses per memory bank with a threshold limit imposed on the number of accesses to each memory bank. The write receive packets are rotated among the banks based on the write queue status. The status of the write queue for each memory bank may also be used for system flow control. The arbiter also typically includes the ability to determine access windows based on the status of the command queues, and to perform arbitration on each access window.

    摘要： A method and system for improving the performance of a cache. The cache may include a tag entry that identifies the previously requested address by the processor whose data was not located in the cache. If the processor requests that address a second time, then there is a significant probability that the address will be accessed again. When the processor requests the address identified by the tag entry a second time, the cache is updated by inserting the data located at that address and evicting the data located in the least recently used entry. In this manner, data will not be evicted from the cache unless there is a significant probability that the data placed in the cache will likely be accessed again. Hence, data may not be evicted in the cache by the processor and replaced with data that will not be reused, such as in an interrupt routine.

    摘要翻译： 一种用于提高缓存性能的方法和系统。 缓存可以包括标识条目，其标识由数据未位于高速缓存中的处理器先前请求的地址。 如果处理器第二次请求该地址，则重新有可能再次访问该地址。 当处理器第二次请求由标签条目标识的地址时，通过插入位于该地址的数据并驱逐位于最近最少使用的条目中的数据来更新高速缓存。 以这种方式，除非存在可能再次访问缓存中的数据的重大概率，否则数据将不会从高速缓存中逐出。 因此，数据可能不会被处理器在高速缓存中驱逐，并且被替换为不被重用的数据，例如在中断程序中。
