Disclosed in some examples are methods, systems, and machine readable mediums that provide increased bandwidth caches to process requests more efficiently for more than a single address at a time. This increased bandwidth allows for multiple cache operations to be performed in parallel. In some examples, to achieve this bandwidth increase, multiple copies of the hit logic are used in conjunction with dividing the cache into two or more segments with each segment storing values from different addresses. In some examples, the hit logic may detect hits for each segment. That is, the hit logic does not correspond to a particular cache segment. Each address value may be serviced by any of the plurality of hit logic units.

A memory device comprises a memory bank comprising a plurality of addressable memory cells, wherein the memory bank is divided into a plurality of segments. Further, the device comprises a cache memory operable for storing a second plurality of data words, wherein each data word of the second plurality of data words is either awaiting write verification associated with the memory bank or is to be re-written into the memory bank. The cache memory is divided into a plurality of primary segments, wherein each primary segment of the cache memory is direct mapped to a corresponding segment of the plurality of segments, wherein each primary segment is sub-divided into a plurality of secondary segments, and wherein each of the plurality of secondary segments comprises at least one counter for tracking a number of entries stored therein.

A data processing system includes a plurality of snoopers, a processing unit including master, and a system fabric communicatively coupling the master and the plurality of snoopers. The master sets a retry operating mode for an interconnect operation in one of alternative first and second operating modes. The first operating mode is associated with a first type of snooper, and the second operating mode is associated with a different second type of snooper. The master issues a memory access request of the interconnect operation on the system fabric of the data processing system. Based on receipt of a combined response representing a systemwide coherence response to the request, the master delays an interval having a duration dependent on the retry operating mode and thereafter reissues the memory access request on the system fabric.

A hybrid memory module includes cache of relatively fast and durable dynamic, random-access memory (DRAM) in service of a larger amount of relatively slow and wear-sensitive flash memory. An address buffer on the module maintains a static, random-access memory (SRAM) cache of addresses for data cached in DRAM.

In an example, an apparatus comprises a plurality of execution units, and a cache memory communicatively coupled to the plurality of execution units, wherein the cache memory is structured into a plurality of sectors, wherein each sector in the plurality of sectors comprises at least two cache lines. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
