Abstract: Software instructions are executed on a processor within a computer system to configure a streaming engine with stream parameters to define a multidimensional array. The stream parameters define a size for each dimension of the multidimensional array and a pad value indicator. Data is fetched from a memory coupled to the streaming engine responsive to the stream parameters. A stream of vectors is formed for the multidimensional array responsive to the stream parameters from the data fetched from memory. A padded stream vector is formed that includes a specified pad value without accessing the pad value from system memory.

Abstract: Software instructions are executed on a processor within a computer system to configure a steaming engine with stream parameters to define a multidimensional array. The stream parameters define a size for each dimension of the multidimensional array, a null vector count (N), and a selected dimension. Data is fetched from a memory coupled to the streaming engine responsive to the stream parameters. A stream of vectors is formed for the multidimensional array responsive to the stream parameters from the data fetched from memory. N null stream vectors are inserted into the stream of vectors for the selected dimension without fetching respective null data from the memory.

Abstract: Software instructions are executed on a processor within a computer system to configure a steaming engine with stream parameters to define a multidimensional array. The stream parameters define a size for each dimension of the multidimensional array and a specified width for a selected dimension of the array. Data is fetched from a memory coupled to the streaming engine responsive to the stream parameters. A stream of vectors is formed for the multidimensional array responsive to the stream parameters from the data fetched from memory. When the selected dimension in the stream of vectors exceeds the specified width, the streaming engine inserts null elements into each portion of a respective vector for the selected dimension that exceeds the specified width in the stream of vectors. Stream vectors that are completely null are formed by the streaming engine without accessing the system memory for respective data.

Abstract: Software instructions are executed on a processor within a computer system to configure a steaming engine with stream parameters to define a multidimensional array. The stream parameters define a size for each dimension of the multidimensional array and a specified width for two selected dimensions of the array. Data is fetched from a memory coupled to the streaming engine responsive to the stream parameters. A stream of vectors is formed for the multidimensional array responsive to the stream parameters from the data fetched from memory. When either selected dimension in the stream of vectors exceeds a respective specified width, the streaming engine inserts null elements into each portion of a respective vector for the selected dimension that exceeds the specified width in the stream of vectors.

Abstract: An apparatus includes a central processing unit (CPU) core and a cache subsystem coupled to the CPU core. The cache subsystem includes a memory configured to store a line of data and an error correcting code (ECC) syndrome associated with the line of data, where the ECC syndrome is calculated based on the line of data and the ECC syndrome is a first type ECC. The cache subsystem also includes a controller configured to, in response to a request from a master configured to implement a second type ECC, the request being directed to the line of data, transform the first type ECC syndrome for the line of data to a second type ECC syndrome send a response to the master. The response includes the line of data and the second type ECC syndrome associated with the line of data.

Abstract: A system includes a memory controller, multiple memories coupled to the memory controller, and multiple controlling components coupled to the memory controller. The memory controller calculates an error correction code (ECC) syndrome of a first type for a segment of data; stores the segment of data and the ECC syndrome of the first type in a first memory of the multiple memories; receives a request from a controlling component of the multiple controlling components directed to the segment of data, the controlling component implementing an ECC syndrome of a second type; transforms the ECC syndrome of the first type for the segment of data to the ECC syndrome of the second type; detects a number of errors, if any, present in the segment of data; and takes further action depending on how many errors are detected.
