DATA PREFETCH RAMP IMPLEMENATION BASED ON MEMORY UTILIZATION |
摘要 |
A technique for data prefetching for a multi-core chip includes determining memory utilization of the multi-core chip. In response to the memory utilization of the multi-core chip exceeding a first level, data prefetching for the multi-core chip is modified from a first data prefetching arrangement to a second data prefetching arrangement to minimize unused prefetched cache lines. In response to the memory utilization of the multi-core chip not exceeding the first level, the first data prefetching arrangement is maintained. The first and second data prefetching arrangements are different. |

1. A method of data prefetching for a multi-core chip, comprising:
determining memory utilization of the multi-core chip; in response to the memory utilization of the multi-core chip exceeding a first level, modifying data prefetching for the multi-core chip from a first data prefetching arrangement to a second data prefetching arrangement to minimize unused prefetched cache lines; and in response to the memory utilization of the multi-core chip not exceeding the first level, maintaining the first data prefetching arrangement, wherein the first and second data prefetching arrangements are different. |
