APPARATUSES, METHODS, AND SYSTEMS TO ACCELERATE STORE PROCESSING - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240211262 titled 'APPARATUSES, METHODS, AND SYSTEMS TO ACCELERATE STORE PROCESSING
Simplified Explanation: The patent application describes systems, methods, and apparatuses for monitoring memory store accesses in circuitry. One embodiment includes a system with a memory, hardware processor core, execution circuit, store buffer, retirement circuit, and performance monitoring circuit.
- Hardware processor core decodes instructions
- Execution circuit executes decoded instructions
- Retirement circuit retires instructions when store requests are queued
- Performance monitoring circuit marks retired instructions for post-retirement performance monitoring
- Store fence enables completion of previous store requests
- Post-retirement performance information is stored in the performance monitoring circuit
Key Features and Innovation: - Precise monitoring of memory store accesses - Efficient retirement of instructions - Post-retirement performance monitoring - Store fence for completing store requests - Storage of performance information in the monitoring circuit
Potential Applications: - Computer processors - Data centers - Cloud computing systems
Problems Solved: - Ensuring accurate memory store access monitoring - Efficient retirement of instructions - Post-retirement performance analysis
Benefits: - Improved memory store access monitoring - Enhanced performance analysis - Efficient instruction retirement

Original Abstract Submitted
systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to circuitry to precisely monitor memory store accesses are described. in one embodiment, a system includes a memory, a hardware processor core comprising a decoder to decode an instruction into a decoded instruction, an execution circuit to execute the decoded instruction to produce a resultant, a store buffer, and a retirement circuit to retire the instruction when a store request for the resultant from the execution circuit is queued into the store buffer for storage into the memory, and a performance monitoring circuit to mark the retired instruction for monitoring of post-retirement performance information between being queued in the store buffer and being stored in the memory, enable a store fence after the retired instruction to be inserted that causes previous store requests to complete within the memory, and on detection of completion of the store request for the instruction in the memory, store the post-retirement performance information in storage of the performance monitoring circuit.
