Definitions
- Embodiments of the present invention generally relate to allocating one or more memory buffers in a computing system with a plurality of memory channels.
- a source of inefficiency in the system bus relates to a recovery time period of a memory device when the client devices request successive data transfers from the same memory bank of the memory device (also referred to herein as “memory bank contention”).
- the recovery time period refers to a delay time exhibited by the memory device between a first access and an immediately subsequent second access to the memory device. While the memory device accesses data, no data can be transferred on the system bus during the recovery time period, thus leading to inefficiency in the system bus.
- one approach to improve bus efficiency involves interleaving memory addresses within the multiple memory devices on the system bus.
- successive memory storage locations e.g., memory locations having consecutive addresses
- the effects from the recovery time period for a given memory device, and thus memory bank contention can be reduced.
- the system bus typically enters an arbitration state to determine which of the client devices can access the system bus and interleaved memory addresses within the multiple memory devices. For instance, the arbitration state can allow a first client device to access the system bus and successive memory locations within the multiple memory devices prior to a second client device.
- the arbitration state cannot guarantee that the second client device will immediately access the same successive memory locations as the first client device, thus compromising the benefits of the interleaved memory architecture (e.g., reduction of memory bank contention).
- Methods and systems are needed to reduce, or eliminate, memory bank contention in computer systems with multiple client devices.
- Embodiments of the present invention include a method for allocating one or more memory buffers in a computing system with a plurality of memory channels.
- the method can include the following: allocating a first memory buffer to a first plurality of memory banks, where the first plurality of memory banks spans over a first set of one or more memory channels; allocating a second memory buffer to a second plurality of memory banks, where the second plurality of memory banks spans over a second set of one or more memory channels; associating a first sequence identifier and a second sequence identifier with the first memory buffer and the second memory buffer, respectively; and, accessing the first and second memory buffers based on the first and second sequence identifiers.
- the method can also include executing a first memory operation associated with the first memory buffer at a first operating frequency. Similarly, the method can include executing a second memory operation associated with the second memory buffer at a second operating frequency, where the first operating frequency is different from the second operating frequency.
- Embodiments of the present invention additionally include a computer program product that includes a computer-usable medium having computer program logic recorded thereon for enabling a processor to allocate one or more memory buffers in a computing system with a plurality of memory channels.
- the computer program logic can include the following: first computer readable program code that enables a processor to allocate a first memory buffer to a first plurality of memory banks, where the first plurality of memory banks spans over a first set of one or more memory channels; second computer readable program code that enables a processor to allocate a second memory buffer to a second plurality of memory banks, where the second plurality of memory banks spans over a second set of one or more memory channels; third computer readable program code that enables a processor to associate a first sequence identifier and a second sequence identifier with the first memory buffer and the second memory buffer, respectively; and, fourth computer readable program code that enables a processor to access the first and second memory buffers based on the first and second sequence identifiers.
- the computer program logic can also include the following: fifth computer readable program code that enables a processor to execute a first memory operation associated with the first memory buffer at a first operating frequency; and, sixth computer readable program code that enables a processor to execute a second memory operation associated with the second memory buffer at a second operating frequency, where the first operating frequency is different from the second operating frequency.
- Embodiments of the present invention further include a computing system.
- the computing system can include a first client device, a second client device, a plurality of memory channels, and a memory controller.
- the plurality of memory channels can include a plurality of memory devices (e.g., Dynamic Random Access Memory (DRAM) devices).
- the memory controller is configured to communicatively couple the first and second client devices to the plurality of memory channels.
- DRAM Dynamic Random Access Memory
- the memory controller is also configured to perform the following functions: allocate a first memory buffer to a first plurality of memory banks, where the first plurality of memory banks spans over a first set of one or more memory channels; allocate a second memory buffer to a second plurality of memory banks, where the second plurality of memory banks spans over a second set of one or more memory channels; associate a first sequence identifier and a second sequence identifier with the first memory buffer and the second memory buffer, respectively; and, access the first and second memory buffers based on the first and second sequence identifiers. Further, the memory controller is also configured to execute a first memory operation associated with the first memory buffer at a first operating frequency and to execute a second memory operation associated with the second memory buffer at a second operating frequency, where the first operating frequency is different from the second operating frequency.

This granularity refers to a number of memory channels and a number of memory banks (within the memory channels) that are allocated to the one or more memory buffers. In an embodiment, the granularity can be dictated by computing devices 110 and 120 , as described in further detail below.

- a sequence identifier of ‘1’ can be assigned to memory buffer 250 and the static screen state operation of the video decode pipeline.
- a sequence identifier of ‘2’ can be assigned to memory buffer 240 and the video decoder's internal operation.
- a sequence identifier of ‘3’ can be assigned to memory buffer 230 and the write operations by the video decoder and the read operations from the one or more graphics blocks. Further, a sequence identifier of ‘4’ can be assigned to memory buffer 220 and the video decoder's internal operation.
- memory controller 130 and memory devices 140 - 170 may address/access memory buffers 220 , 230 , 240 , and 250 in a particular sequence, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the sequence identifiers of memory buffers 220 , 230 , 240 , and 250 can be used as parameters for the particular sequence. For example, if the particular sequence is ‘1’, ‘2’, and ‘4’, memory buffer 250 will be addressed/accessed first, memory buffer 240 will be addressed/accessed second, and memory buffer 220 will be addressed/accessed last.
- memory buffer 250 will be addressed/accessed first, memory buffer 230 will be addressed/accessed second, and memory buffer 220 will be addressed/accessed last.
- the particular sequences do not have ‘2’ and ‘3’ occurring one after another.

- a default memory buffer arrangement can be used for operations associated with computing devices 110 and 120 , according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- the default memory buffer arrangement can span across all memory banks of and across all memory channels.
- An example of this memory buffer arrangement is illustrated as memory buffer 210 of FIG. 2 , which spans across all memory banks 0 - 3 and across all memory channels 140 - 170 .
- memory management unit 310 is configured to operate each of memory channels 140 , 150 , 160 , and 170 at a particular operating frequency.
- the bandwidth per memory channel can be assessed based on the allocated memory buffers across one or more of the memory channels. For instance, based on a particular arrangement of memory buffers across memory channels 140 , 150 , 160 , and 170 (e.g., memory buffers 210 , 220 , 230 , 240 , and 250 of FIG. 2 ), the clock frequency of each of the memory channels can either be increased or decreased to assess whether the performance (e.g., throughput) of multi-client computing system 100 of FIG. 1 improves based on the arrangement of memory buffers.
- an optimal clock frequency can be used for one or more memory channels associated with one or more memory buffers such that memory operations associated with the computing devices can be optimized.
- the performance parameter portion of the tracking information includes the optimal clock frequency for each of memory channels 140 , 150 , 160 , and 170 .
- scheduler 320 is configured to process memory requests from memory management unit 310 .
- scheduler 320 processes the memory requests based on the tracking information provided by memory management unit 310 .
- the tracking information can provide the following information: (1) whether an allocated memory buffer is in use, free, or reserved; (2) the memory channel/memory bank granularity of the allocated memory buffer; (3) a sequence identifier associated with the allocated memory buffer; and, (4) a performance parameter for the allocated memory buffer.
- scheduler 320 Based on this tracking information, scheduler 320 generates an address, command, and control signals necessary to send read and write operations to memory channels 140 , 150 , 160 , and 170 via data buses 141 , 151 , 161 , and 171 , respectively, of FIG. 1 .
- the generation of address, command, and control signals corresponding to read and write memory requests from computing devices 110 and 120 of FIG. 1 is known to a person skilled in the relevant art.
- scheduler 320 operates in conjunction with memory management unit 310 to sort threads of arbitration between computing devices 110 and 120 of FIG. 1 .
- memory controller 130 of FIG. 1 can manage two threads of arbitration—one thread of arbitration allocated to memory requests from computing device 110 and another thread of arbitration allocated to memory requests from computing device 120 .
- Scheduler 320 can be optimized by processing the memory requests of one computing device before the other computing device. For instance, if computing device 110 is a CPU and computing device 120 is a GPU, scheduler 320 can process the CPU-related memory requests before GPU-related memory requests since CPU performance is typically more sensitive to memory delay than GPU performance.
- scheduler 220 provides control of system bus 180 of FIG. 1 to computing device 110 such that the data transfer associated with the CPU-related memory request takes priority over the data transfer associated with the GPU-related memory request, according to an embodiment of the present invention.
- memory management unit 310 of FIG. 3 de-allocates the one or more memory buffers associated with the operation from the memory space. At this point, memory management unit 310 can allocate the free memory space to other memory buffers associated with operations of computing devices 110 and 120 . Memory management unit 310 can allocate the free memory space to the other memory buffers in the same arrangement as (e.g., same number of banks and channels allocated to memory buffers associated with the previous operation) or in a different arrangement from (e.g., different number of banks and channels allocated to the other memory buffers associated with the previous operation) as the previous operation. Memory management unit 310 is configured to allocate the other memory buffers to the operations of computing devices 110 and 120 in the same manner described above with respect to FIG. 3 .
