Abstract: Method and apparatus for a scalar data cache in a
scalar/vector supercomputer. The scalar data cache
comprising a cache array (11c) and a cache controller.
The cache array comprises a plurality of cache frames;
each cache frame comprises a plurality of cache lines;
and each cache line comprises a plurality of data words.
The cache controller performs a broadside compare of the
reference address against all addresses held in the
cache, and translates the reference address into a cache-array
address. For each cache line, there is a
corresponding cache-line validity indication which is set
"valid" only when every data word in the cache line
contains valid data. A cache-line validity comparator
operates to provide a cache-line-hit indication if a data
word requested is in a valid cache line. A cache load
controller is described for loading data from a common
memory into every data word of a cache line and for
marking the cache line "valid". For at least one of the
plurality of scalar registers (120,130), a cache accessor
is described for providing fetch access to the data words
in the cache array, and for providing write-through-cache
capability to the data words in the cache array. Thus
only scalar registers can fetch from and write-through
to the cache (110), while all other registers
(140,150,160) must access data directly from a common
memory (602).
