20090031058 | Methods and Apparatuses for Flushing Write-Combined Data From A Buffer - Methods and apparatuses for flushing write-combined data from a buffer within a memory to an input/output (I/O) device. | 01-29-2009 |
20090240894 | METHOD AND APARATUS FOR THE SYNCHRONIZATION OF DISTRIBUTED CACHES - A method and apparatus for the synchronization of distributed caches. More particularly, the present invention to cache memory systems and more particularly to a hierarchical caching protocol suitable for use with distributed caches, including use within a caching input/output (I/O) hub. | 09-24-2009 |
20100017458 | TECHNIQUES FOR BROADCASTING MESSAGES ON A POINT-TO-POINT INTERCONNECT - Techniques to broadcast a message across a point-to-point network are described. More particularly, some embodiments of the invention relate to broadcasting messages between electronics components within a point-to-point interconnect. Other embodiments are also disclosed. | 01-21-2010 |
20100332686 | WRITE COMBINING PROTOCOL BETWEEN PROCESSORS AND CHIPSETS - Systems and methods of processing write transactions provide for combining write transactions on an input/output (I/O) hub according to a protocol between the I/O hub and a processor. Data associated with the write transactions can be flushed to an I/O device without the need for proprietary software and specialized registers within the I/O device. | 12-30-2010 |
20120036291 | STREAM PRIORITY - A system, method and apparatus for prioritizing transactions is disclosed. I/O devices may generate transactions with a stream identifier. A transaction classifier may assign a priority to a transaction based upon a stream identifier of the transaction. An arbiter may select a transaction for processing based upon priorities assigned to the transaction. | 02-09-2012 |
20120042106 | STREAM PRIORITY - A system, method and apparatus for prioritizing transactions is disclosed. I/O devices may generate transactions with a stream identifier. A transaction classifier may assign a priority to a transaction based upon a stream identifier of the transaction. An arbiter may select a transaction for processing based upon priorities assigned to the transaction. | 02-16-2012 |
20130151782 | Providing Common Caching Agent For Core And Integrated Input/Output (IO) Module - In one embodiment, the present invention includes a multicore processor having a plurality of cores, a shared cache memory, an integrated input/output (IIO) module to interface between the multicore processor and at least one IO device coupled to the multicore processor, and a caching agent to perform cache coherency operations for the plurality of cores and the IIO module. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 06-13-2013 |
20150058524 | BIMODAL FUNCTIONALITY BETWEEN COHERENT LINK AND MEMORY EXPANSION - Methods and apparatus relating to provide bimodal functionality between a coherent link and memory expansion are described. In one embodiment, a processor is coupled to one or more agents via a coherent interconnect. The processor is also coupled to one or more Dual Inline Memory Modules (DIMMs) via a link logic. The logic supports read or write commands directed at the one or more DIMMs based on a single bit of data. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed. | 02-26-2015 |
