Mechanisms to accelerate transactions using buffered stores |
摘要 |
In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for executing a transactional memory (TM) transaction in a first thread, buffering a block of data in a first buffer of a cache memory of a processor, and acquiring a write monitor on the block to obtain ownership of the block at an encounter time in which data at a location of the block in the first buffer is updated. Other embodiments are described and claimed. |

1. A method comprising:
executing a transactional memory (TM) transaction of an atomic section of code in a first thread within a processor; during the TM transaction, buffering a block of data in a first buffer of a cache memory of the processor; and acquiring a write monitor on the block to obtain ownership of the block at an encounter time in which data at a location of the block in the first buffer is updated. |
