    摘要： Efficient techniques are described for identifying active interrupt requests to improve performance and reduce power requirements in a processor system. A method to identify active sampled interrupt requests begins with scanning groups of the sampled interrupt requests one group at a time to identify an active interrupt request in any scanned group. A group of interrupt requests is an M/R priority of N sampled interrupt requests, M is the number of priority levels, and R is a resource sharing factor. A group selection circuit is updated to a new group in response to having identified an active interrupt request to improve the latency in processing high priority interrupt requests. Also, groups having active interrupt requests may be identified by early detection or look ahead circuitry. The scanning of groups of interrupt requests may be stopped until the next interrupt request sample point has been reached to reduce power utilization.

    摘要： Memory controllers, systems, methods, and computer-readable mediums for applying a page management policy(ies) based on stream transaction information are disclosed. In one embodiment, a memory controller is provided and configured to receive memory access requests for stream transactions. The memory controller is configured to perform a memory access to a memory page(s) in memory included in the stream transaction. The controller is further configured to apply a page management policy(ies) to the memory page(s) in memory based on information related to the stream transactions. In this manner, the page management policy(ies) can be configured to utilize page open policies for efficiency that stream transactions may facilitate, but while also recognizing and taking into consideration in the page management policy latency issues that can arise when the memory controller is handling memory access requests from different devices.

    摘要： Devices, systems, methods, and computer-readable mediums for arbitrating stream transactions based on information related to the stream transactions are disclosed. A stream transaction is a superset of burst access types to facilitate efficient bulk transfers of data. In one embodiment, an arbiter is provided that arbitrates bus transactions between a plurality of devices coupled to a bus competing for resources accessible through the bus. To efficiently arbitrate stream transactions requested on the bus, the arbiter is configured to use information related to the stream transactions to provide a view of future bus traffic on the bus. The arbiter is configured to use this stream transaction information to apply bus arbitration policies for arbitrating stream transactions. In this example, the bus arbitration policy can be adjusted for stream transactions based on the stream transaction information, if necessary, for the arbiter to attempt to meet a parameter(s) for completing the stream transactions.

    摘要： A method for saving power in transmission of data across buses. By knowing the power characteristics of a bus and characteristics of data to be transmitted across the bus, the data can be encoded in such a fashion as to conserve system power over transmitting the same data in an unencoded format across the bus. The encoding method may be selected before transmission of the data across the bus, and may change depending on the data to be transmitted across the bus.
