Abstract
Memory transactions are issued to a memory system component specifying a partition identifier allocated to a software execution environment associated with said memory transaction. The memory system component selects one of a plurality of sets of memory system component parameters in dependence on the partition identifier specified by a memory transaction to be handled. The memory system component controls allocation of resources for handling the memory transaction or manages contention for the resources in dependence on the selected set of parameters, or updates performance monitoring data specified by the selected set of parameters in response to handling of said memory transaction. Partition identifier remapping circuitry is provided to remap a virtual partition identifier specified for a memory transaction by a first software execution environment to a physical partition identifier to be specified with the memory transaction issued to the memory system component.
