35 results about "Cache compression" patented technology

Cache compression enables controlling and optimizing memory usage. The objects in cache are not compressed when the parameter is set to false. The objects in cache are compressed when the parameter is set to true.

Memory control

A data processing apparatus 1 comprises data processing circuitry 2, a memory8 for storing data and a cache memory 5 for storing cached data from the memory 8. The cache memory 5 is partitioned into cache segments 12 which may be individually placed in a power saving state by power supply circuitry 15 under control of power control circuitry 22. The number of segments which are active at any time may be dynamically adjusted in dependence upon operating requirements of the processor 2. An eviction selection mechanism 35 is provided to select evictable cached data for eviction from the cache. A cache compacting mechanism 40 is provided to evict evictable cached data from the cache and to store non-evictable cached data in fewer cache segments than were used to store the cached data prior to eviction of the evictable cached data. Compacting the cache enables at least one cache segment that, following eviction of the evictable cached data, is no longer required to store cached data to be placed in the power saving state by the power supply circuitry.

Method and mechanism for cache compaction and bandwidth reduction

A method and mechanism are managing caches. A cache is configured to store blocks of data based upon predictions of future accesses. Each block is partitioned into sub-blocks, and if it is predicted a given sub-block is unlikely to be accessed, the sub-block may not be stored in the cache. Associated with each block is a mask which indicates whether sub-blocks of the block are likely to be accessed. When a block is first loaded into the cache, the corresponding mask is cleared and an indication is set for the block to indicate a training mode for the block. Access patterns of the block are then monitored and stored in the mask. If a given sub-block is accessed a predetermined number of times, a bit in the mask is set to indicate that the sub-block is likely to be accessed. When a block is evicted from the cache, the mask is also transferred for storage and only the sub-blocks identified by the mask as being likely to be accessed may be transferred for storage. If previously evicted data is restored to the cache, a previously stored mask is accessed to determine which of the sub-blocks are predicted likely to be accessed. The lower level storage may then transfer only those sub-blocks predicted likely to be accessed to the cache.
