A data reading method, a data processing device, and a data processing system are provided. The method, executed by a first control node, includes receiving a reading message forwarded by a data switching device, where the reading message is used to instruct the first control node to read first data, and the reading message is sent by a second control node to the data switching device; if a data status identifier of the first data in a first storage node is a valid identifier, reading the first data from the first storage node, and sending the read first data to the data switching device, so that the data switching device forwards the read first data to the second control node, where the valid identifier indicates that the first data on the first storage node is available. The present application ensures that the latest first data in the node group is read.

One embodiment provides for a graphics processor comprising first logic coupled with a first execution unit, the first logic to receive a first single instruction multiple data (SIMD) message from the first execution unit; second logic coupled with a second execution unit, the second logic to receive a second SIMD message from the second execution unit; and third logic coupled with a bank of shared local memory (SLM), the third logic to receive a first request to access the bank of SLM from the first logic, a second request to access the bank of SLM from the second logic, and in a single access cycle, schedule a read access to a read port for the first request and a write access to a write port for the second request.

A technique for managing a datapath of a data storage system includes receiving a request to access target data and creating a transaction that includes multiple datapath elements in a cache, where the datapath elements are used for accessing the target data. In response to detecting that one of the datapath elements is invalid, the technique further includes processing the transaction in a rescue mode. The rescue mode attempts to replace each invalid datapath element of the transaction with a valid version thereof obtained from elsewhere in the data storage system. The technique further includes committing the transaction as processed in the rescue mode.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed facilitate read-modify-write support in a coherent victim cache with parallel data paths. An example apparatus includes a random-access memory configured to be coupled to a central processing unit via a first interface and a second interface, the random-access memory configured to obtain a read request indicating a first address to read via a snoop interface, an address encoder coupled to the random-access memory, the address encoder to, when the random-access memory indicates a hit of the read request, generate a second address corresponding to a victim cache based on the first address, and a multiplexer coupled to the victim cache to transmit a response including data obtained from the second address of the victim cache.

Methods, systems, and devices that support variable modulation schemes for memory are described. A device may switch between different modulation schemes for communication based on one or more operating parameters associated with the device or a component of the device. The modulation schemes may involve amplitude modulation in which different levels of a signal represent different data values. For instance, the device may use a first modulation scheme that represents data using two levels and a second modulation scheme that represents data using four levels. In one example, the device may switch from the first modulation scheme to the second modulation scheme when bandwidth demand is high, and the device may switch from the second modulation scheme to the first modulation scheme when power conservation is in demand. The device may also, based on the operating parameter, change the frequency of the signal pulses communicated using the modulation schemes.
