Method of organizing a programmable atomic unit instruction memory

Abstract:

Disclosed in some examples, are methods, systems, devices, and machine readable mediums that store instructions for programmable atomic transactions in a memory of the programmable atomic unit prior to execution of the programmable atomic transaction. The memory in some examples may be an instruction RAM. The memory in some examples may be partitioned into partitions of a fixed size that stores a same number of instructions. Each programmable atomic transaction may use one or more contiguously located instruction partitions. By loading the instructions ahead of time, the instructions are ready for execution when the transaction is requested.
