the main memory just before it is replaced by another. Write-back cache is more complex to implement, since it needs to keep track of and mark “dirty” any modified memory locations so that they can be written into main memory at some later time, when they are evicted from the cache....
Common practice is to optimize memory in order to maximize the locality of critical or heavily used data and code by placing as much in cache as possible. Cache misses incur not only core stall penalties, but also power penalties as more bus activity is needed, and higher-level memories (in...
Cache Virtual memory Transfer unit Word Block Page All of these characteristics of the design of a memory system will influence its performance. The location of the memory in relationship to the processor and the closer it is to the processor the faster it will be. Another key characteristic is...
The cache resilience works on Rocket and BOOM are promising but not complete. ECC has been successfully applied only to the Rocket core, with restrictions. Memory structures apart from caches such as Branch Prediction Unit (BPU) tables and the Page Table Walker (PTW) are not protected. So far...
While FPGAs have seen prior use in database systems, in recent years interest in using FPGA to accelerate databases has declined in both industry and acade
More complex inline functions may also be put in a .h file for the convenience of the implementer and callers, though if this makes the .h file too unwieldy you can instead put that code in a separate -inl.h file. This separates the implementation from the class definition, while still...
Examples 1 and 2 provide exemplary sections of Verilog code compatible with certain embodiments described herein. As described more fully below, the code of Examples 1 and 2 includes logic to reduce potential problems due to “back-to-back adjacent read commands which cross memory device boundaries...
A re-fetching cache memory improves efficiency of a processor, for example by reducing power consumption and/or by advantageously sharing the cache memory. When the cache memory is disabled or temporarily used for another purpose, a data portion of the cache memory is flushed, and some or all...
