    摘要: In a CPU of the combined CPU/APD architecture system, the CPU having multiple CPU cores, each core having a first machine specific register for receiving a physical page table/page directory base address, a second machine specific register for receiving a physical address pointing to a location controlled by an IOMMUv2 that is communicatively coupled to an APD, and microcode which when executed causes a write notification to be issued to the physical address contained in the second machine specific register; receiving in the first machine specific register of a CPU core, a physical page table/page directory base address, receiving in the second machine specific register of the CPU core, a physical address pointing to a location controlled by the IOMMUv2, determining that a control register of the CPU core has been updated, and responsive to the determination that the control register has been updated, executing microcode in the CPU core that causes a write notification to be issued to the physical address contained in the second machine specific register, wherein the physical address is able to receive writes that affect IOMMUv2 page table invalidations.

    摘要: A method, system, and computer program product are disclosed for providing improved access to accelerated processing device compute resources to user mode applications. The functionality disclosed allows user mode applications to provide commands to an accelerated processing device without the need for kernel mode transitions in order to access a unified ring buffer. Instead, applications are each provided with their own buffers, which the accelerated processing device hardware can access to process commands. With full operating system support, user mode applications are able to utilize the accelerated processing device in much the same way as a CPU.
