Memory Test Blues

I got the memory test blues
Been singin em for days
I got the memory test blues
Lost in a sea of arrays
My wordlines are not passing count-check
And my sets are not matching their ways

I got the memory test blues
Been singin em for weeks
I got the memory test blues
Have become a cache architect geek
My bitlines are tyranny twisted
And my pass gate oxides have sprung a leak


P-BIST has gone P-BUST
M-BIST is on the S-LIST
L-DAT is not working any better than L-DIS or L-DOtherThing
I need a logical address
Illogical addresses just won’t do
Please give me a logical address
Or I’ll keep singin the memory test blues

I got the memory test blues

Been singin em for months
I got the memory test blues
Can’t seem to ID the appropriate chunks
BKMs have been leading me astray
Guess following them is for chumps


I got the memory test blues
Been singin em for years
I got the memory test blues
It’s taken over my career
If I ever cache out on this madness
I’m goin to the Bitline Bar for a beer


The butterflies are hammered
Retention has galloped away
I’ve measured so many cell currents that my nickname is Al Y A
I need a physical location
Metaphysical locations just won’t do
Please map me a physical location
Or I’ll keep singin the memory test blues
