XTRNB: Attempting to allocate large buffer of size 1074503680

Logged during XTR initialization phase just before XTR tries to allocate memory to simulate DIMM.

XTRNB: Sending APIC initialization data to CPU0

Logged during XTR initialization phase just before APIC memory is initialized.

XTRNB: Write to TSC ignored. Please use M00000010 for writes to TSC

Logged during XTR initialization phase.

XTRNB: CPU0 rejected Initialization SREG XXXXXXXXXX with zeros

Logged during XTR initialization phase and displayed if the initialization data is invalid for the SREG. This may or may not be an error in the initialization data.

XTRNB: CPU0 rejected Initialization of SREG XXXXXXXXX with specific value

Logged during XTR initialization phase

XTRNB: Skipping write to μCode patch MSR C0010020

Logged during XTR initialization phase

XTRNB: Processing GETMEMPTR request for XXXXXXXXXXX:...Denied

Logged during XTR execution phase where XXXXXX is the physical address of page requested. The request may be denied if it is requested for a MMIO region.

**DEVMC_READMEM [800000007F1CAD00/296]: 55 8B EC 51 56 8B 75 0C

**DEVMC_WRITEMEM [400000007F294FD4/523]: A9 17 53 80

Logged during XTR execution phase. 800000007F1CAD00 is the address 296 is the instruction count. The data following the ":" is the data that returned and received to and from the CPU. This message is logged for a READ/WRITE MEMORY request but no record is present in XTR XML file for this read. The data is hence served and written from and to backing store (whose contents were originally initialized from the XTR binary file)

XTRNB: Ir A03E w/event time = 326, Consume time = 597, CPU ICount = 99: 01 00

XTRNB: Iw A03E w/event time = 345, Consume time = 616, CPU ICount = 118: 00 00

XTRNB: Ia D1 w/event time = 326462, Consume time = 326462, CPU ICount = 326235

Logged during XTR execution phase when IOR/IOW message is received by XTRNB. A03E is the address of IOR/IOW and the data after the ":" is the data that is returned and received to and from the CPU. „Ia‟ is for Interrupt Acknowledgement and D1 is the vector.

XTRNB: Time Resync - Adjusting time by -271...

Logged during execution when there is a timing discrepancy detected between an event in XTR XML and that received from the CPU. XTRNB adjusts to this discrepancy. In ideal environment this should not occur.

XTRNB: Queuing event CPU0[DMAW] for time 8403

Logged during execution when a DMAW event is queued so that it could be triggered at a later point. 8403 is the time when this event should be triggered.

4.4.5 specifications

AMD 4.4.5 is a robust version of the AMD software ecosystem that focuses on enhanced performance, stability, and efficiency for users relying on AMD processors and graphics cards. This iteration brings various features and technologies designed to optimize gaming, professional applications, and general computing tasks.

One of the standout enhancements in AMD 4.4.5 is the integration of Smart Access Memory technology, which allows the CPU to access the full graphics memory directly. This feature enhances data flow between the CPU and GPU, leading to improved frame rates and overall performance, especially in memory-intensive games. Users can experience a marked increase in gaming performance without the need for additional hardware upgrades.

Another significant feature introduced is the updated Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition. This software update encompasses optimizations for various games, ensuring that gamers can enjoy a seamless experience with the latest titles. The Adrenalin interface also provides features such as Radeon Chill, which helps reduce power consumption during less demanding scenes, and Radeon Anti-Lag, designed to minimize input lag and enhance responsiveness in competitive gaming.

Additionally, AMD 4.4.5 brings the latest drivers that include important performance enhancements and bug fixes that allow for greater system stability. Regular updates ensure that users have the best experience with their AMD hardware, and it significantly bolsters compatibility with the latest gaming titles and software applications.

AMD's Enhanced Sync technology offers users the ability to eliminate screen tearing and stuttering while delivering smooth gameplay. It dynamically synchronizes the refresh rate of the display with the frame rates produced by the GPU, improving the visual experience significantly.

With the introduction of FidelityFX Super Resolution, AMD continues to bolster its suite of technologies that enhance graphics quality and performance. This feature allows lower-resolution images to be upscaled effectively, making it easier for users to enjoy high-end visuals without taxing their hardware excessively.

In summary, AMD 4.4.5 represents a comprehensive update for users by integrating cutting-edge technologies that cater to a wide range of applications from gaming to content creation. With enhancements across the board, AMD reaffirms its commitment to providing high-performance solutions that keep pace with the ever-evolving technology landscape. Whether for gaming aficionados or professional creators, the capabilities offered in this version make it a significant milestone in the AMD software ecosystem.
