    摘要: Methods and apparatus relating to fast deskew when exiting a low-power partial-width high speed link state are described. In one embodiment, an exit flit on active lanes and/or a wake signal/sequence on idle lanes may be transmitted at a first point in time to cause one or more idle lanes of a link to enter an active state. At a second point in time (following or otherwise subsequent to the first point in time), training sequences are transmitted over the one or more idle lanes of the link. And, the one or more idle lanes are deskewed in response to the training sequences and prior to a third point in time (following or otherwise subsequent to the second point in time). Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for embedding a control channel in a high speed serial interconnect having multiple data lanes. Operational aspects of the interconnect are controlled via use of control channel data that is sent over one or more of the data lanes on a periodic basis. A link state cycle is employed that includes a link control period during which control information is transferred over the interconnect and a link control interval between link control periods during which other links states are implemented, such as for transferring data or operating the link in a low power state. The link state cycles at transmitter and receiver ports are synchronized to account for link transmit latencies, and the timing of link state cycles corresponding to a bidirectional exchange of link control information may be configured to support an overlapping implementation or to facilitate a request/response link control protocol.

    摘要: A processor is described that includes one or more processing cores. The processing core includes a memory controller to interface with a system memory having a near memory and a far memory. The processing core includes a plurality of caching levels above the memory controller. The processor includes logic circuitry to track state information of a cache line that is cached in one of the caching levels. The state information including a selected one of an inclusive state and a non inclusive state. The inclusive state indicates that a copy or version of the cache line exists in near memory. The non inclusive states indicates that a copy or version of the cache line does not exist in the near memory. The logic circuitry is to cause the memory controller to handle a write request that requests a direct write into the near memory without a read of the near memory beforehand if a system memory write request generated within the processor targets the cache line when the cache line is in the inclusive state.
