摘要
Accessing a circular buffer in memory from a processor may be performed with the aid of precomputed values stored in a pointer descriptor field of a processor storage element, such as a register. The pointer descriptor may store a precomputed value for calculating a memory address in the circular buffer, which may include two values, in which the two values are based, at least in part, on the size of the circular buffer, but neither be the size of the circular buffer. The first value may be used to derive a starting memory location for a circular buffer. The second value may be used in combination with the first value to calculate an end memory location. The start and end locations or addresses, along with the precomputed stored values, are then used to calculate the next address based on the current address of a circular buffer in an efficient manner.
