20100082848 | INCREASING AVAILABLE FIFO SPACE TO PREVENT MESSAGING QUEUE DEADLOCKS IN A DMA ENVIRONMENT - Embodiments of the invention may be used to manage message queues in a parallel computing environment to prevent message queue deadlock. A direct memory access controller of a compute node may determine when a messaging queue is full. In response, the DMA may generate an interrupt. An interrupt handler may stop the DMA and swap all descriptors from the full messaging queue into a larger queue (or enlarge the original queue). The interrupt handler then restarts the DMA. Alternatively, the interrupt handler stops the DMA, allocates a memory block to hold queue data, and then moves descriptors from the full messaging queue into the allocated memory block. The interrupt handler then restarts the DMA. During a normal messaging advance cycle, a messaging manager attempts to inject the descriptors in the memory block into other messaging queues until the descriptors have all been processed. | 04-01-2010 |

20110119445 | HEAP/STACK GUARD PAGES USING A WAKEUP UNIT - A method and system for providing a memory access check on a processor including the steps of detecting accesses to a memory device including level-1 cache using a wakeup unit. The method includes invalidating level-1 cache ranges corresponding to a guard page, and configuring a plurality of wakeup address compare (WAC) registers to allow access to selected WAC registers. The method selects one of the plurality of WAC registers, and sets up a WAC register related to the guard page. The method configures the wakeup unit to interrupt on access of the selected WAC register. The method detects access of the memory device using the wakeup unit when a guard page is violated. The method generates an interrupt to the core using the wakeup unit, and determines the source of the interrupt. The method detects the activated WAC registers assigned to the violated guard page, and initiates a response. | 05-19-2011 |

20080275685 | MISS-ACCUMULATION IN A BINARY SPACE PARTITIONING TREE - Embodiments of the invention provide a technique for improving the efficiency of a molecular modeling simulation. In one embodiment, the simulation may parse a kd-tree representing a receptor atom to identify atoms of the receptor within a specified distance of a target point. The target point may represent the center of a spherical envelope enclosing atoms of a ligand atom. A miss-accumulation vector may be used to accumulate a miss distance representing the minimum distance between a target point and a given node of the kd-tree. Thus, although the search algorithm may only evaluate the distance between the target point and a splitting dimension at each node of the kd-tree, the miss-accumulation vector may be used to account for distances over multiple dimensions. | 11-06-2008 |

20100100715 | HANDLING DEBUGGER BREAKPOINTS IN A SHARED INSTRUCTION SYSTEM - A debugger debugs processes that execute shared instructions so a breakpoint set for one process will not cause a breakpoint to occur in the other processes. A breakpoint is set by recording the original instruction at the desired location and writing a trap instruction to the shared instructions at that location. When a process encounters the breakpoint, the process passes control to the debugger for breakpoint processing if the breakpoint was set at that location for that process. If the trap was not set at that location for that process, the cacheline containing the trap is copied to a small scratchpad memory, and the virtual memory mappings are changed to translate the virtual address of the cacheline to the scratchpad. The original instruction is then written to replace the trap instruction in the scratchpad, so the process can execute the instructions in the scratchpad thereby avoiding the trap instruction. | 04-22-2010 |
