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.

A caching system including a first sub-cache and a second sub-cache in parallel with the first sub-cache, wherein the second sub-cache includes: line type bits configured to store an indication that a corresponding cache line of the second sub-cache is configured to store write-miss data, and an eviction controller configured to evict a cache line of the second sub-cache storing write-miss data based on an indication that the cache line has been fully written.

A caching system including a first sub-cache and a second sub-cache in parallel with the first sub-cache, wherein the second sub-cache includes a set of cache lines, line type bits configured to store an indication that a corresponding cache line of the set of cache lines is configured to store write-miss data, and an eviction controller configured to flush stored write-miss data based on the line type bits.

A processor of an aspect includes a plurality of packed data registers, and a decode unit to decode a no-locality hint vector memory access instruction. The no-locality hint vector memory access instruction to indicate a packed data register of the plurality of packed data registers that is to have a source packed memory indices. The source packed memory indices to have a plurality of memory indices. The no-locality hint vector memory access instruction is to provide a no-locality hint to the processor for data elements that are to be accessed with the memory indices. The processor also includes an execution unit coupled with the decode unit and the plurality of packed data registers. The execution unit, in response to the no-locality hint vector memory access instruction, is to access the data elements at memory locations that are based on the memory indices.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for allocation in a victim cache system. An example apparatus includes a first cache storage, a second cache storage, a cache controller coupled to the first cache storage and the second cache storage and operable to receive a memory operation that specifies an address, determine, based on the address, that the memory operation evicts a first set of data from the first cache storage, determine that the first set of data is unmodified relative to an extended memory, and cause the first set of data to be stored in the second cache storage.

Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture to facilitate an atomic operation and/or a histogram operation in cache pipeline are disclosed. An example system includes a cache storage coupled to an arithmetic component; and a cache controller coupled to the cache storage, wherein the cache controller is operable to: receive a memory operation that specifies a set of data; retrieve the set of data from the cache storage; utilize the arithmetic component to determine a set of counts of respective values in the set of data; generate a vector representing the set of counts; and provide the vector.

Processors, systems and methods are provided for thread level parallel processing. A processor may comprise a plurality of processing elements (PEs) that each may comprise a configuration buffer, a sequencer coupled to the configuration buffer of each of the plurality of PEs and configured to distribute one or more PE configurations to the plurality of PEs, and a gasket memory coupled to the plurality of PEs and being configured to store at least one PE execution result to be used by at least one of the plurality of PEs during a next PE configuration.

A caching system including a first sub-cache and a second sub-cache in parallel with the first sub-cache, wherein the second sub-cache includes a set of cache lines, line type bits configured to store an indication that a corresponding cache line of the set of cache lines is configured to store write-miss data, and an eviction controller configured to flush stored write-miss data based on the line type bits.

Techniques for caching data are provided that include receiving, by a caching system, a write memory command for a memory address, the write memory command associated with a first color tag, determining, by a first sub-cache of the caching system, that the memory address is not cached in the first sub-cache, determining, by second sub-cache of the caching system, that the memory address is not cached in the second sub-cache, storing first data associated with the first write memory command in a cache line of the second sub-cache, storing the first color tag in the second sub-cache, receiving a second write memory command for the cache line, the write memory command associated with a second color tag, merging the second color tag with the first color tag, storing the merged color tag, and evicting the cache line based on the merged color tag.
