20150106602 | RANDOMLY BRANCHING USING HARDWARE WATCHPOINTS - A system and method for efficiently performing program instrumentation. A processor processes instructions stored in a memory. The processor allocates a memory region for the purpose of creating “random branches” in the computer code utilizing existing memory access instructions. When the processor processes a given instruction, the processor both accesses a first location in the memory region and may determine a condition is satisfied. In response, the processor generates an interrupt. The corresponding interrupt handler may transfer control flow from the computer program to instrumentation code. The condition may include a pointer storing an address pointing to locations within the memory region equals a given address after the point is updated. Alternatively, the condition may include an updated data value stored in a location pointed to by the given address equals a threshold value. | 04-16-2015 |
20150106604 | RANDOMLY BRANCHING USING PERFORMANCE COUNTERS - A system and method for efficiently performing program instrumentation. A processor processes instructions stored in a memory. When the processor processes a given instruction of a given instruction type, the processor updates a corresponding performance counter. When the performance counter reaches a threshold, the processor generates an interrupt and compares a location of the given instruction with stored locations in a given list. If a match is not found, then the processor processes an instruction following the given instruction in the computer program without processing intermediate instrumentation code. If a match is found, then the processor processes instrumentation code. Regardless of whether or not the instrumentation code is processed, when control flow returns to the computer program, the corresponding performance counter is initialized with a random value. | 04-16-2015 |
20150206574 | RELOCATING INFREQUENTLY-ACCESSED DYNAMIC RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY (DRAM) DATA TO NON-VOLATILE STORAGE - A method includes emptying a first region of a dynamic random access memory of data by moving data from the first region to a non-volatile memory and reducing a refresh rate of the dynamic random access memory responsive to emptying the first region of data. A system includes a memory controller to refresh a dynamic random access memory based on a configurable refresh rate, the dynamic random access memory having a plurality of regions, each region having an associated minimum refresh rate, and a processing unit to empty a first region of the plurality of regions of the dynamic random access memory by moving data from the first region to a non-volatile memory and to reduce the configurable refresh rate responsive to emptying the first region. | 07-23-2015 |
