SYSTEMS AND METHODS TO SAVE AND RESTORE A WRITE GATHER PIPE

摘要

Systems and methods for efficient data transfer in a data processing system that includes saving and restoring residual data of a write gather facility. Specifically, a method is provided for data processing that includes writing an address to a register. The method further includes initiating a save operation of residual data within the write gather facility. The writing of the address to the register causes the initiation of the save operation. The residual data is one byte to any number of bytes less than a predetermined number of bytes gathered in the write gather facility.
