摘要： The present invention provides for sending an envelope and replying to an envelope. A transmitter is configured to send an envelope. A receiver is coupled to the transmitter, wherein the receiver is configured to receive the envelope and generate a reply envelope. A send buffer is coupled to the transmitter. A receive buffer is coupled to the receiver. A retry timer is coupled to the transmitter, wherein the retry timer is configured to reset upon the receipt of a reply envelope correlated to the transmit envelope. The transmitter is configured to retransmit an envelope if the transmitter does not receive a corresponding reply envelope within a selected time period as determined by the retry timer. This leads to a decrease in the total number of envelopes, transmitted from both the transmitter and the receiver.

摘要： In a first aspect, a first method of reducing reissue latency of a command received in a command processing pipeline from one of a plurality of units coupled to a bus is provided. The first method includes the steps of (1) from a first unit coupled to the bus, receiving a first command on the bus requiring access to a cacheline; (2) determining a state of the cacheline required by the first command by accessing cacheline state information stored in each of the plurality of units; (3) determining whether a second command received on the bus requires access to the cacheline before the state of the cacheline is returned to the first unit; and (4) if so, storing the second command in a buffer. Numerous other aspects are provided.

摘要： A method and apparatus are provided for implementing enhanced vertical ECC storage in a dynamic random access memory. A dynamic random access memory (DRAM) is split into a plurality of groups. Each group resides inside a DRAM row address strobe (RAS) page so that multiple locations inside a group can be accessed without incurring an additional RAS access penalty. Each group is logically split into a plurality of segments for storing data with at least one segment for storing ECC for the data segments. For a write operation, data are written in a data segment and then ECC for the data are written in an ECC segment. For a read operation, ECC are read from an ECC segment, then data are read from the data segment.

摘要： A method, apparatus, system, and signal-bearing medium that in an embodiment determine whether a current number of buffers allocated to a queue pair is less than a maximum number of buffers for the queue pair, decide whether a current number of buffers allocated to an operation type is less than a maximum number of buffers for the operation, and allocate a buffer to the queue pair if the queue pair requests the buffer for an operation having the operation type and the determining and the deciding are true. In this way, too much buffer space is prevented from being assigned to particular operation and to a particular queue pair.
