Abstract

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for efficient data transfer in a computing system are disclosed. A source generates packets to send across a communication fabric (or fabric) to a destination. The source generates partition enable signals for the partitions of payload data. The source negates an enable signal for a particular partition when the source determines the packet type indicates the particular partition should have an associated asserted enable signal in the packet, but the source also determines the particular partition includes a particular data pattern. Routing components of the fabric disable clock signals to storage elements assigned to store the particular partition. The destination inserts the particular data pattern for the particular partition in the payload data.
