    摘要: A mechanism is provided in a cache for providing a read and write aware cache. The mechanism partitions a large cache into a read-often region and a write-often region. The mechanism considers read/write frequency in a non-uniform cache architecture replacement policy. A frequently written cache line is placed in one of the farther banks. A frequently read cache line is placed in one of the closer banks. The size ratio between read-often and write-often regions may be static or dynamic. The boundary between the read-often region and the write-often region may be distinct or fuzzy.

    摘要: In a data processing system capable of concurrently executing multiple hardware threads of execution, an intermediate address translation unit in a processing unit translates an effective address for a memory access into an intermediate address. A cache memory is accessed utilizing the intermediate address. In response to a miss in cache memory, the intermediate address is translated into a real address by a real address translation unit that performs address translation for multiple hardware threads of execution. The system memory is accessed with the real address.

    摘要: A mechanism is provided in a virtual machine monitor for fine grained cache allocation in a shared cache. The mechanism partitions a cache tag into a most significant bit (MSB) portion and a least significant bit (LSB) portion. The MSB portion of the tags is shared among the cache lines in a set. The LSB portion of the tags is private, one per cache line. The mechanism allows software to set the MSB portion of tags in a cache to allocate sets of cache lines. The cache controller determines whether a cache line is locked based on the MSB portion of the tag.

    摘要: A virtual address scheme for improving performance and efficiency of memory accesses of sparsely-stored data items in a cached memory system is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a special address translation unit is used to translate sets of non-contiguous addresses in real memory into contiguous blocks of addresses in an “intermediate address space.” This intermediate address space is a fictitious or “virtual” address space, but is distinguishable from the virtual address space visible to application programs, and in user-level memory operations, effective addresses seen/manipulated by application programs are translated into intermediate addresses by an additional address translation unit for memory caching purposes. This scheme allows non-contiguous data items in memory to be assembled into contiguous cache lines for more efficient caching/access (due to the perceived spatial proximity of the data from the perspective of the processor).
