LOAD STORE CACHE MICROARCHITECTURE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18170808 titled 'LOAD STORE CACHE MICROARCHITECTURE

The abstract describes a graphics processor that can receive messages from an instruction execution resource and determine whether to route the message to shared function circuitry or a set of memory banks within the graphics core.

• Memory access circuitry receives messages and determines the destination within the graphics core.
• Messages are routed to shared function circuitry if directed there, or to a message sequencer if directed to the set of memory banks.
• This routing system optimizes message handling within the graphics processor.

Original Abstract Submitted

One embodiment provides a graphics processor comprising memory access circuitry configured to receive a message from an instruction execution resource and determine a destination for the message, the destination one of shared function circuitry of a graphics core or a set of memory banks within the graphics core. The memory access circuitry then routes the message to the shared function circuitry in response to a determination that the message is directed to the shared function circuitry or routes the message to a message sequencer associated with the instruction execution resource in response to a determination that the message is directed to the set of memory banks.
