Memory is stated with more common Double Data Rate synchronous DRAM (DDR SDRAM, Double Date Rate now
Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory), illustrate exemplified by abbreviation DDR memories, other embodiment
In, the memory can also be the memory of other support binary channels or multichannel memory technology.
Above-mentioned memory access patterns are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
It should be noted that in the present embodiment to illustrate exemplified by supporting the DDR of dual access memory access technique, but this hair
The memory access control method for the terminal device that bright embodiment provides is not limited solely to binary channels, can be that multichannel (wraps
Containing more than two internal storage access passages).
The structure of the dual access memory of the embodiment of the present invention is as shown in figure 4, DDR controller A, DDR PHY A and A0, A1
An internal storage access passage is formed, DDR controller B, DDR PHY B and B0, B1 form another internal storage access passage, pass through
One layer of i.e. interconnection logic layer (interconnect logic) on DDR controller comes from multiple Master (such as to distribute
M0, M1 ... Mn shown in Fig. 4) read-write requests (i.e. described access request).
Certainly, in the present embodiment, an internal storage access passage corresponds to a DDR controller respectively, in other embodiment
In, DDR controller A and DDR controller B can also be developed and be merged into a DDR controller, i.e., all internal storage access passages are all right
A DDR controller is answered, but the function of DDR controller offer is the function with all DDR controller offers before merging
The same.In addition, in other embodiments, the function that interconnection logic layer is realized can also be also incorporated into a DDR controller
The inside is gone.Therefore, dual access memory realizes that structure is not limited to the example that the present embodiment is provided.
With continued reference to Fig. 4, DDR PHY A and DDR PHY B are that binary channels DDR is necessary, and " DDR PHY " are processing
Component in terms of sequential and in terms of frequency, corresponding with DDR controller, how many general DDR controller is a with regard to how many
DDR PHY, because herein " implication of DDR PHY " and effect are known to those skilled in the art, are not described in detail.
In addition, each internal storage access passage usually all has piece choosing (CS, Chip Select), for selecting external DDR
Physical memory, generally, piece choosing are exactly the DDR slice, thin pieces that selection outside connects, using the initialization object as future.A0 in Fig. 4
First CS of access path 0 is represented, A1 represents second CS of access path 0;B0 represents first CS of access path 1,
B1 represents second CS of access path 1.In Fig. 4, for different CS, distinguished respectively with different filling patterns with showing,
Wherein A0 represents that A1 is represented with lattice filling with blank filling, and B0 represents that B1 fills table with backslash with the filling of positive oblique line
Show.Certainly, in actual implementation, each access path can also all have more CS.
In the present embodiment, all the structure of dual access memory with reference to shown in Fig. 4 is said for every kind of memory access patterns
It is bright.
(1) high performance mode
The high performance mode is adapted to the terminal device insensitive to power consumption such as super phone or tablet computer, that is,
Say, this kind equipment is since battery capacity is larger, so being generally more concerned with runnability, then seems relatively less for power consumption
It is sensitive.Under the high performance mode, the alternating expression by realizing access request in the whole memory space of the memory accesses,
So as to realize the concurrent access of each access path to the full extent, system performance is set to get a promotion.
It should be noted that the alternating expression accesses is properly termed as interleaving access (interleaving) or interactive mode again
Access, be to speed up a kind of memory access technology of parallel work-flow of memory speed.In interleaving access mode, memory is to be in
In different blocks, as long as read-write operation will carry out in two blocks, they can be carried out at the same time.For example, will deposit
Odd address and the even address part of storage body separate, and when such current byte is refreshed, can not influence next byte
Access.The implication that is accessed due to the alternating expression and it act as known to a person skilled in the art, is not described in detail herein.
When an access request comes from interconnection (Interconnect), it is distributed to by the logic on Interconnect
Two access paths as shown in Figure 4.For convenience of explanation, it is assumed that only have A0 and B0 to connect exterior DDR physical memories in Fig. 4,
The size (interleaved size) so just accessed according to the alternating expression of regulation accesses the corresponding memory blocks of A0 and B0 respectively
Domain, by carrying out concurrent access to improve system performance.
The internal storage access configuring condition of the high performance mode is as shown in figure 5, each adjacent grid in Fig. 5 represents
The external continuous storage address of DDR physical memories, the storage size of each grid are the size that alternating expression accesses.With figure
Filling pattern in 4 represented by the two CS of A0 and B0 is corresponding is, for the memory space of blank spacer-frame subrepresentation
Access derives from A0, and the access for the memory space of positive oblique line spacer-frame subrepresentation comes from B0.Fig. 5 is software and hardware mould
The address space view that block can see, for software and hardware module be it is transparent, they be not aware that data source in
Which access path.
In the present embodiment, under the high performance mode, the size that alternating expression accesses is equal, that is to say, that in Fig. 5
The area of blank filling grid is equal to the area of positive oblique line filling grid.
Under the high performance mode, all memory spaces all carry out alternating expression access, are usually highest for performance
, but power consumption is larger, because most access has all been distributed on two access paths so that two access paths all cannot
Into battery saving mode, so as to consume excessive power consumption.Those skilled in the art know that the battery saving mode generally can be by DDR
Controller provides, such as selects to close some clocks and power supply according to DDR controller, to achieve the purpose that to save power consumption.
It should be noted that Fig. 5, which illustrate only A0, has connect exterior DDR physical memories, B0 has connect exterior DDR physical memories
Situation, for A1 can also external DDR physical memories external with A0 of equal value in the case of, B1 can also external equivalence it is external with B0
The situation of DDR physical memories.Certainly, it will be readily appreciated by those skilled in the art that in other embodiments, if each access
Passage all includes more CS, then the situation of each external DDR physical memories of CS may be referred to the side provided in the present embodiment
Formula.
(2) low-power consumption mode
The low-power consumption mode is more suitable for those because limited battery capacity or cruising ability requirement are high and more quick to power consumption
The mobile terminal device of sense.Under the low-power consumption mode, the whole memory space of the memory is divided by storage address scope
For the first sub- memory space corresponding with each access path, the non-of access request is realized in each first sub- memory space
Alternating expression accesses.In the present embodiment, the storage address scope is by the external physics of the corresponding each piece choosing institute of each access path
The size of memory determines.
Compared with the high performance mode, the characteristics of low-power consumption mode is maximum, is realized most in whole memory space
Small alternating expression accesses.The internal storage access configuring condition of the low-power consumption mode is as shown in fig. 6, it is still assumed that only A0 and B0 connect
Exterior DDR physical memories, then under low-power consumption mode, whole memory space includes two parts access region, one is A0
Memory space corresponding to external DDR physical memories, this is determined according to the storage address scope of the external DDR physical memories of A0
With 0 corresponding first sub- memory space of access path, i.e. in Fig. 6 with blank filling grid represented by region,
The second is the memory space corresponding to the external DDR physical memories of B0, this is the storage address model according to the external DDR physical memories of B0
Identified another described first sub- memory space corresponding with access path 1 is enclosed, i.e. positive oblique line fills grid institute table in Fig. 6
The region shown.
From fig. 6, it can be seen that the whole memory space formed for the summation by the external DDR physical memories of A0 and B0 Lai
Say, be accomplished that twin-channel alternating expression is visited between the corresponding first sub- memory spaces of A0 the first sub- memory space corresponding with B0
Ask, and inside the corresponding first sub- memory space of A0 and B0, then realized in a manner of noninterlaced accesses.
Those skilled in the art know, for the read-write requests of random access memory, can all include its storage to be accessed
Address, for Memory Controller Hub, program will access any storage address, and the storage address of arriving goes for data to program.
By access request, the storage address to be accessed is known as target access address in the present embodiment.In the low-power consumption mode
Under, since the storage address scope of the first sub- memory space corresponding with each access path is all a sheet of continuous storage
Location, the target access address included according to some access request, judges that it is in which storage address scope, can be true
The fixed access request should access the corresponding first sub- memory space of A0 corresponding first sub- memory space or B0.
For example, general CPU, which is accessed, can only send a bit of continuous storage address access, and each access path pair
The storage address scope for the first sub- memory space answered is usually very big, then otherwise the small sector address that CPU is sent usually falls
In the corresponding regions of A0 as shown in Figure 6, otherwise fall region corresponding in B0, it is assumed that fall in corresponding A0 regions, then just only
Access corresponding A0 regions, it is assumed that fall region corresponding in B0, then just only access the corresponding regions of B0.
In actual implementation, it is assumed that the size of the external DDR physical memories of A0 in Fig. 6 is 1G, the external DDR physical memories of B0
Size be 1G, and the storage address of external DDR physical memories is continuous between the two, then any Mater read and write access
0-1G storage address will all fall the first sub- memory space corresponding in A0, accessing the storage address of 1G-2G will all fall at B0 pairs
The the first sub- memory space answered.In this way, when software system design is carried out, designer can be according to demand by memory
Access arrangement and be assigned to the corresponding first sub- memory spaces of A0 or B0.
It should be noted that in other embodiments, the size of the respective external DDR physical memories of A0 and B0 can not also phase
Deng, and the storage address of external DDR physical memories can also be discrete between the two, such as:In the external DDR physics of A0
The size deposited is 1G, and corresponding storage address scope is 0-1G, and the size of the external DDR physical memories of B0 is 2G, corresponding to deposit
Storage address realm is 2-4G.
In the present embodiment, since the terminal device is mobile communication terminal, and mobile communication terminal now is much all
It can include Communication processor and application processor, then, then can be by institute when the memory access patterns are low-power consumption mode
State the access request that Communication processor and application processor are sent and be allocated in different access paths respectively, and realize access request
Noninterlaced access, so as to achieve the purpose that power consumption control.
As an example it is assumed that the application processor definition of mobile communication terminal (such as mobile phone) only accesses the corresponding areas of A0
Domain, and defined for Communication processor and only access the corresponding regions of B0, the size in A0 and the corresponding regions of B0 can not phase
Deng.In general, A0 corresponding regions are not accessed when application processor is generally in idle condition (idle), Communication processor is
It can be spaced with base station synchronization and access the corresponding regions of B0, can so cause the corresponding regions of most of the time A0 to enter power saving
Pattern, so as to achieve the purpose that to save power consumption;And the Master of high bandwidth requirements is needed for multimedia etc., then it can distribute straight
Memory access (DMA, Direct Memory Access) physical memory is connect on the corresponding regions of A0 and B0, that is, at the same time
Use two regions represented by the sub and positive oblique line filling grid of blank spacer-frame in Fig. 6, so that can meet high bandwidth need
Ask.
(3) first balanced modes
Although high performance mode and low-power consumption mode there are it is respective the advantages of, there is also respective deficiency, therefore can be with
Both of which above is combined by consideration, obtains the mixed mode of high performance mode and low-power consumption mode, or is referred to as to balance
Pattern, can obtain the advantages of above two kinds of memory access patterns protrude under the pattern at the same time:Performance and power consumption.Described first is flat
Weighing apparatus pattern can be adapted to those needs to take into account the mobile terminal device of performance boost and power consumption control.
First balanced mode is a kind of implementation of the balanced mode, described interior under first balanced mode
The whole memory space deposited includes the first access region and the second access region, and access request is realized in first access region
Alternating expression access, second access region includes corresponding respectively to the sub- access region of each access path, in every height
Access region realizes that the noninterlaced of access request accesses.
The internal storage access configuring condition of first balanced mode is as shown in fig. 7, for convenience of explanation, it is still assumed that only
A0 and B0 has connect exterior DDR physical memories, then under the first balanced mode, whole memory space includes two large divisions access region
Domain, one is first access region, i.e., being filled out with multiple staggeredly adjacent blank filling sub-box and positive oblique lines shown in Fig. 7
The access region that sub-box is formed is filled, the size of the access region is represented with " size0 ", the second is second access region
Domain, i.e., a blank shown in Fig. 7 fills big grid and a positive oblique line fills the access region that big grid is formed, the access
Region includes a sub- access region for corresponding to access path 0, which is represented with " An ", the sub- access region
Size represents that the access region further includes another sub- access region for corresponding to access path 1, the sub- access with " size1 "
Region represents that the size of the sub- access region is represented with " size2 " with " Bn ".
For first access region, access of the access request to memory is realized in a manner of alternating expression accesses, with Fig. 7
The corresponding access for being, region represented by sub-box being filled for blank of filling pattern represented by middle the two CS of A0 and B0
A01, a02 in A0, such as Fig. 7, the access for region represented by positive oblique line filling sub-box come from B0, such as
B01, b02 in Fig. 7.The size in region is the size that alternating expression accesses represented by each sub-box, can also use " entry
Size " is indicated (not shown in Fig. 7).The specific implementation of first access region is accessed in a manner of alternating expression accesses also
The associated description in the high performance mode is may be referred to, both realizes that alternating expression accesses in predetermined memory space,
Difference, the former predetermined memory space is whole memory space, and simply whole storage is empty for the predetermined memory space of the latter
Between in a part.
For second access region, access of the access request to memory is realized in a manner of noninterlaced accesses, with
Filling pattern in Fig. 7 represented by the two CS of A0 and B0 is corresponding to be, the son represented by big grid is filled for blank and is visited
Ask that the access of region An derives from A0, the access that the sub- access region Bn represented by big grid is filled for positive oblique line comes from
B0.The specific implementation of second access region is accessed in a manner of alternating expression accesses to be referred in the low-power consumption mode
Associated description, both predetermined memory space realize noninterlaced access, otherwise varied, the former predetermined storage
Space is whole memory space, and the predetermined memory space of the latter is the part in whole memory space.
Under first balanced mode, size (such as size0) for the first access region and wherein alternating expression
The definite right and wrong of the size (such as entry size) of access and the size (such as size1+size2) of second access region
It is often important, because this directly influences desired level of the terminal device for performance boost and power consumption control.
In the present embodiment, first access region and the wherein size of alternating expression access and second access region
The size in domain is determined by system emulation and test.
In the present embodiment, by system emulation and test, determine the first access region and wherein alternating expression access it is big
The small and size of second access region, that is, determine which region is the region that bulk is used for realization alternating expression access
(i.e. size0), the size that alternating expression accesses for it is how many relatively it is appropriate (the static configuration size equal to any Master, i.e.,
Entry size), bulk be not carried out alternating expression access region for it is much (or for be used for realization noninterlaced access area
Domain, i.e. size1+size2).
When it is implemented, size and second access region that first access region and wherein alternating expression access
Size by system emulation and test determine can include:
Go out application high to performance requirement in every application of the terminal device by system emulation and test statistics
Quantity and each required storage size, determine the size of first access region with this, the memory it is whole
The size that the size of memory space subtracts first access region is the size of second access region;
Corresponding bus master unit is sent out during high to performance requirement application operation described with test assessment by system emulation
Go out the transmission characteristic of access request, the size of the alternating expression access is determined with this.
After system emulation and test, if size0 is determined, due to the size of the whole memory space of memory
That can select the size of external physical memory according to all and be readily available, then the whole memory space of memory it is big
Small to subtract size0 be then size1+size2, is respectively how many size as size1 and size2, then by corresponding access path
Piece selects the size of external physical memory to determine, if the piece of two access paths selects the size phase of external physical memory
Deng, then size1 and size2 is also equal, if the piece of two access paths selects the size of external physical memory not phase
Deng, then also need to be determined according to entry size, since entry size are can to assess institute by system emulation and test
The transmission characteristic that corresponding bus master unit sends access request when stating the application operation high to performance requirement comes definite, and institute
It is again usually equal to state the size that the alternating expression in the first access region accesses, then the piece of the corresponding access paths of size1
It is size1 that the size of the external physical memory of choosing, which subtracts the result obtained after [(size0) * (1/2)], similarly, size2 phases
The piece of corresponding access path selects the size of external physical memory to subtract the result obtained after [(size0) * (1/2)]
size2。
On sending the transmission characteristic of access request by system emulation and test assessment Master, the alternating expression is determined
The size of access, it is how many that can specifically assess Master and send most sizes of access, whom highest frequency is, whose is excellent
First level highest.For example image processor once accesses the access for sending 128 bytes (Byte, is usually represented with " B "), still
CPU at most can only once access 64 Byte, because image procossing is bad, human eye can observe flicker, so general just select
The size that 128 Byte are accessed as alternating expression.Which kind of actual situation is best, by the emulation testing during chip development Lai really
Surely select much.
Present inventor thinks, if test is abundant, or very clear application scenarios, it is possible to obtain above-mentioned parameter
(such as size0, entry size, size1+size2), so that performance and power consumption all reach ideal value.For example, make performance
It is required that high application scenarios, are positioned over the first access region for being used for realization alternating expression and accessing as shown in Figure 7, and make performance will
Ask not high application scenarios only to access the An in the second access region or access Bn.Access An and access Bn and place respectively less
The application scenarios accessed at the same time, can so make it that only An is accessed and Bn does not have when the first access region does not access
Any access, then the corresponding access paths of Bn can enter battery saving mode.Conversely, when the first access region does not access,
Only Bn is accessed and An does not have any access, then the corresponding access paths of An can enter battery saving mode.
In actual implementation, above-mentioned high performance mode, low-power consumption mode and the first balanced mode can be matched somebody with somebody by static state
The form respective stored of table is put in the terminal device, the corresponding memory access patterns of selection are to access request each
It is allocated on access path and is realized by configuring corresponding static allocation list.
Specifically, describe how access request carries out in binary channels or multichannel by defining multiple static allocation lists
Distribution, after static allocation list completes configuration, energy height optimization, software configuration only need when chip generates specific logic
Corresponding configuration is carried out when system starts according to different products application forms.
In the present embodiment, so-called " static configuration ", that is to say, that terminal device start is completed after starting, for having completed
Configuration cannot change, the access request that Master is sent can be assigned on corresponding access path according to configuration, this pass
System is static.For example under the low-power consumption mode, for some address, the corresponding access paths of A0 are always accessed, and it is right
The corresponding access paths of B0 are then always accessed in another address.For another example under first balanced mode, there is most
Region be it is total access a passage, it is short grained division to have most, and some addresses access the corresponding access paths of A0,
Some addresses access the corresponding access paths of B0.
Static allocation list is that requirement chip realizes one section of configuration register, and then software configuration is good.Table 1 is static allocation list
A kind of example:
Table 1
(4) second balanced modes
Since first balanced mode needs, based on the size for obtaining alternating expression access on the basis of emulation and test, to go back
There is which region to need to carry out alternating expression access, which region need not carry out alternating expression access, be respectively necessary for specifying fixation
Size.Once after chip production, after software selects this memory access patterns, the concrete configuration parameter (example under the pattern
Such as size0, entry size, size1 and size2) it can not change.
To solve the above problems, in the present embodiment, the balanced mode can also include the second balanced mode.Described
Two balanced modes are another implementations of the balanced mode, under second balanced mode, by storage address scope
The whole memory space of the memory is divided into the second sub- memory space corresponding with each access path, is wrapped in access request
The extended address after extension process to target access address is included, by being determined to extended address progress address decoding
Corresponding access mode;The access mode includes the first access mode and the second access mode, and first access mode is
The noninterlaced for realizing access request in each second sub- memory space accesses, and second access mode is to be visited the 3rd
Ask that the alternating expression for realizing access request in region accesses, the access address in the 3rd access region is with the big of alternating expression access
Small is unit, the virtual memory address that the physical storage address alternative mapping of each second sub- memory space is formed.
Fig. 8 shows the internal storage access configuring condition of second balanced mode, it is assumed that still only has A0 and B0 to connect outer
Portion's DDR physical memories, then under the second balanced mode, whole memory space includes two parts access region, one is outside A0
The memory space corresponding to DDR physical memories is connect, this is according to determined by the storage address scope of the external DDR physical memories of A0
With 0 corresponding second sub- memory space of access path, i.e. area represented by thick sash is filled with blank in Fig. 8
Domain, the second is the memory space corresponding to the external DDR physical memories of B0, this is the storage according to the external DDR physical memories of B0
Another described second sub- memory space corresponding with access path 1 determined by the scope of location, the i.e. just thick frame of oblique line filling in Fig. 8
Region represented by grid.
Although from the point of view of the division of the whole memory space singly formed with regard to external DDR physical memories, described second is flat
Weighing apparatus pattern is more similar with the low-power consumption mode, still, for the access side of two the second sub- memory spaces in the present embodiment
Formula but and differs, the access mode of the latter with the access mode under the low-power consumption mode for two the first sub- memory spaces
Uniquely determine, and the former access mode is not then unique.In the present embodiment, the access request that Master is sent includes
The storage address to be accessed form and common target access address in the prior art it is different, in the second balanced mode
Under, what access request included is the extended address after extension process to target access address, by the extension ground
Location carries out address decoding to determine corresponding access mode, and the access mode includes two kinds, and one kind can be realized in each institute
State the second sub- memory space realize access request noninterlaced access (i.e. described first access mode), it is another then can be real
Now the alternating expression in whole memory space accesses (i.e. described second access mode).
For first access mode, it is similar with the access control scheme under the low-power consumption mode, can pass through
The mode of address decoding, identifies the address part that addressing is adapted in the extended address that some access request is included, and judges
It is in which storage address scope, can determine that the access request should access the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of A0 also
It is the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of B0.The specific implementation of first access mode may be referred under the low-power consumption mode
The associated description of access control is deposited, is not described in detail herein.
For second access mode, in order to realize that the alternating expression in whole memory space accesses, therefore
An independent virtual memory space defined in the present embodiment, i.e., described 3rd access region, as shown in Figure 8 is " virtual to visit
Ask region ", it is not actual amount of physical memory, and a kind of simply virtual controlling, the access in the virtual access region
Location is in units of the size that alternating expression accesses, and by way of address of cache, the physics of each second sub- memory space is deposited
The virtual memory address that storage address interleaving mapping forms, therefore the access address in the virtual access region is deposited based on the second son
Virtual memory address determined by the physical storage address in space is stored up, and the size in the virtual access region is whole storage
The size in space.For example, it is assumed that the size of the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of A0 is 1G, the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of B0
Size is 1G, then the size in virtual access region is 1G+1G=2GB, is illustrated in the present embodiment as example.
Fig. 8 can be referred to, in " the virtual access region " shown on the left of Fig. 8, each sub-box is a virtual memory
Address, its size are the size that alternating expression accesses, and lowermost sub-box is the initial address in virtual memory address, i.e. " 0 ground
Location ", the mapping between virtual memory address in the physical storage address and virtual access region of each second sub- memory space
For relation as shown in the four-headed arrow in Fig. 8, the address k0 in the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of A0 is mapped as virtual memory address
In 0 address, the address k2 in the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of B0 is then mapped as the successor virtual adjacent with " 0 address " and stores
Address (assuming that be known as " 1 address ", Fig. 8 is not shown), the address k1 in the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of A0 are mapped as and " 1 ground
The adjacent successor virtual storage address in location " (assuming that be known as " 2 address ", Fig. 8 is not shown), in the corresponding second sub- memory spaces of B0
Address k3 be mapped as with " 2 address " adjacent successor virtual storage address, and so on, deposited so as to fulfill by each second son
The physical storage address alternative mapping for storing up space is each virtual memory address in virtual access region.
In actual implementation, DDR controller is by way of address decoding, after determining corresponding access mode, according to each
The mapping relations between virtual memory address in the physical storage address and virtual access region of a second sub- memory space, just
It can determine the storage address of the external DDR physical memories finally accessed, therefore, realize to access in the virtual access region and ask
The alternating expression asked accesses, and is the equal of that the alternating expression realized in whole amount of physical memory accesses.
By the introduction to above two access mode it is recognized that while the address that two kinds of access modes finally access all is outer
The storage address of DDR physical memories is connect, but is more intuitively understood to have to both access modes, in the present embodiment
In the region being made of shown on the right side of Fig. 8 two thick sashes that will can directly be accessed under first access mode
Referred to as normal areas, and this void in shown virtual access region on the left of Fig. 8 that will be accessed under second access mode
Intend control and be known as access region of interlocking at a high speed.
In the present embodiment, the extension process, which specifically includes to add the target access address, accesses selection extension bits,
It is first access mode or second access mode that the access selection extension bits, which are suitable for identifying the access mode,.
For example, if it is 0 to access selection extension bits, then it represents that access mode is the first access mode, if it is 1 to access selection extension bits,
Expression access mode is the second access mode.
In the present embodiment, for the ease of identification, the highest order for accessing selection extension bits and making an addition to the extended address.
In other embodiments, the time high-order of the extended address as described access can also be selected extension bits, and by the expansion
The highest order of site of an exhibition location is reserved, for other purposes.It should be noted that since those skilled in the art are accustomed to visiting some
Ask that low level in address is used to address, thus by it is extra it is increased access selection extension bits be set in the high position of extended address can
The extended address is set to have more versatility.
Further, since the transmission characteristic that each Master is sent is different, in order to allow each Master to have oneself
The size that peculiar alternating expression accesses, therefore, the memory access control method of the terminal device further includes:Set and be suitable for configuration institute
State the register of the size of alternating expression access;It is different for the transmission characteristic for the bus master unit for sending access request, pass through
The size that corresponding alternating expression accesses is respectively configured in the register.
In actual implementation, the table of an extended address highest order and the size extension bits of alternating expression access can be defined
In interconnection logic, example such as table 2:
Table 2
The memory access process under second balanced mode is exemplified below:
Such as table 2, extended address highest order indicates whether that access access region of interlocking at a high speed, such as the position then represents for " 1 "
Access region of interlocking at a high speed is accessed, which then represents to access normal areas for " 0 ".The size extension bits that alternating expression accesses represent each
The size that class Master is accessed using the alternating expression of which kind of size, for example it is 1,512B 2 to define 256B.
Assuming that when some Master A sends access, since the size that its corresponding alternating expression accesses is configured to 1, then such as
Fruit falls can access in access region of interlocking at a high speed, the then size that alternating expression accesses by interval of 256B.Assuming that it have issued 0 ground
The access of location, then can directly have access to blank shown on the right side of Fig. 8 and fill the initial address in region represented by thick sash (commonly
Region) k0.Assuming that the access of 0+256B is have issued, since extended address highest order is 0, then still fall in normal areas
The local k1 of 256B offsets, similarly, shown normal areas on the right side of Fig. 8 can all be fallen by sending the access of 0-2GB.As Master A
Highest order is sent as 1 (can fall in access region of interlocking at a high speed, subsequent space is that possess staggeredly access function), for extension
Low 32 in address be 0 access, then the high speed that can fall in virtual memory address is interlocked access region, finally has access to thing
Manage storage address k0.It is 1 when Master A send highest order, for the access that low 32 in extended address are 256B, then
The high speed that can fall in virtual memory address is interlocked access region, finally has access to physical storage address k2.
To sum up, at least there are following characteristics for second balanced mode:
1) any Master can be not only restricted to chip, be optimized according to the effect that actual software is adjusted, you can with
Determine to access interlock at a high speed access region or normal areas by the selection of address.Under this internal storage access mode, use
The size of the corresponding external DDR of one access path of minimum under more access paths is equivalent in the region for realizing alternating expression access,
It is very flexible.
2) transmission characteristic sent due to each Master is different, such as most of access that CPU is sent is cache lines
The size of (Cache line), such as 64B, and other Master send the size of 128B, so can have for each Master
The size that the peculiar alternating expression of oneself accesses.
Therefore, by providing the second balanced mode in memory access patterns, high-performance and low-power consumption can either be taken into account
Internal storage access demand, and first balanced mode can be overcome to need just to can determine that each internal storage access area based on emulation and test
The configuration parameter in domain, and configure the shortcomings that parameter is once fixed among chip but can not arbitrarily change, any bus master
Unit can be not only restricted to chip, be optimized according to the effect that actual software is adjusted.
In addition, under second balanced mode, since the DDR somewheres of physics can be accessed by 2 different addresses
Location, that is to say, that there are 2 addresses to correspond to a real physical address, can all go to have access to this according to virtual address true
Existing physical address, once software has many problems, will cause to debug relatively difficult, therefore there are certain safety wind
Danger.To solve the problems, such as this, the memory access control method of the terminal device provided in this embodiment further includes:Described second
Under balanced mode, before access request is assigned to corresponding access path, detecting the corresponding storage address of the access path is
No permission, and interrupt signal notice system is sent when not allowing.In the specific implementation, described detection access path is corresponding
Whether storage address allows the selection of scope, read and write operation by address to be judged.
Skilled artisans appreciate that it is, in actual implementation, to be supervised by increasing bus address in DDR controller
Module (bus monitor) is controlled, security monitoring can be carried out to the address of access, so as to reduce above-mentioned security risk.The module
Function it is very simple, by before access request to be distributed to some specific access path, detecting whether its address allows, such as
Fruit does not allow to be issued by interrupt notification system, and the high speed that can so distinguish is will access virtual controlling is interlocked access region,
Still go to access normal areas.The detection whether address is allowed to substantially is embodied as:Scope there is provided address, read and write
Selection, when chip finds to have reading or write operation, can trigger interruption and tell programmer, perhaps there is illegal visit here
Ask.This mode can play safety guarantee, debug the benefit of optimization.
It should be noted that in the present embodiment, for each access path, the size that alternating expression accesses is all equal, such as
This can make it that the overall utilization rate of the corresponding external DDR physical memories of each access path is higher.Those skilled in the art can
Understand, in other embodiments, for any two access path, the size that alternating expression accesses can not also be equal, i.e.,
In above-mentioned several memory access patterns, it can be adapted to asymmetric DDR, specific address distribution depends on external DDR physics
The actual size of memory.The maximum region of interactive visit is that the DDR being equivalent under multichannel under a minimum access path is big
It is small.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the memory access control method of the terminal device further includes:Realizing access request
Noninterlaced access when, if depositing the access path of unassigned access request in the given time, make the access path into
Enter battery saving mode.
, can be by adding a chip mechanism, there is provided a register is configured to software in actual implementation.Such as
A register for being used to record idle (idle) time is provided, software configuration is 200 milliseconds (ms), when 200ms does not have
Master accesses certain access path, then the access path will enter battery saving mode.
When the noninterlaced for realizing access request accesses, by monitoring the access situation of each access path, make pre- timing
The access path of interior unassigned access request enters battery saving mode, so as to achieve the purpose that to save power consumption.
