| 20090037614 | Offloading input/output (I/O) virtualization operations to a processor - In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for receiving a request for a direct memory access (DMA) operation in an input/output (I/O) hub, where the request includes a device virtual address (DVA) associated with the DMA operation, determining in the I/O hub whether to perform an address translation to translate the DVA into a physical address (PA), and sending the request with the DVA from the I/O hub to a processor coupled to the I/O hub if the I/O hub determines not to perform the address translation. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20090037624 | Cache coherent switch device - In one embodiment, the present invention includes a switch device to be coupled between a first semiconductor component and a processor node by interconnects of a communication protocol that provides for cache coherent transactions and non-cache coherent transactions. The switch device includes logic to handle cache coherent transactions from the first semiconductor component to the processor node, while the first semiconductor component does not include such logic. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 02-05-2009 |
| 20100169673 | Efficient remapping engine utilization - A device, system, and method are disclosed. In one embodiment device includes remapping engine reallocation logic that is capable of monitoring a first amount of traffic that is translated by a first remapping engine. If the first amount of traffic reaches the threshold level of the first remapping engine, then the logic will divert a portion of the traffic to be translated by a second remapping engine. | 07-01-2010 |

The switch device includes logic to handle cache coherent transactions from the first semiconductor component to the processor node, while the first semiconductor component does not include such logic. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 08-12-2010 |
| 20110153956 | Cache Coherent Switch Device - In one embodiment, the present invention includes a switch device to be coupled between a first semiconductor component and a processor node by interconnects of a communication protocol that provides for cache coherent transactions and non-cache coherent transactions. The switch device includes logic to handle cache coherent transactions from the first semiconductor component to the processor node, while the first semiconductor component does not include such logic. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20110252168 | Handling Atomic Operations For A Non-Coherent Device - In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for receiving a non-coherent atomic request from a device coupled to an agent via a non-coherent link, accessing a mapping table of the agent to convert the non-coherent atomic request into a coherent atomic request, and transmitting the coherent atomic request via a coherent link to a second agent coupled to the agent to cause the second agent to be a completer of the non-coherent atomic request. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 10-13-2011 |
| 20110302425 | SYSTEMS, METHODS, AND APPARATUS TO VIRTUALIZE TPM ACCESSES - Embodiments of system, method, and apparatus for virtualizing TPM accesses is described. In some embodiments, an apparatus including a CPU core to execute a software program, a manageability engine coupled to the CPU core, the manageability engine to receive a trusted platform module (TPM) command requested by the software program and to process the TPM command utilizing a manageability firmware by at least creating a TPM network packet, and a network interface coupled to the manageability engine to transmit the TPM network packet to a remote TPM that is external to the apparatus for processing is utilized as a part of this virtualization process. | 12-08-2011 |
