Dynamic Helper Threaded Prefetching on the Sun Ultrasparc® CMP Processor
Dynamic Helper Threaded Prefetching on the Sun UltraSPARC® CMP Processor Jiwei Lu, Abhinav Das, Wei-Chung Hsu Khoa Nguyen, Santosh G. Abraham Department of Computer Science and Engineering Scalable Systems Group University of Minnesota, Twin Cities Sun Microsystems Inc. {jiwei,adas,hsu}@cs.umn.edu {khoa.nguyen,santosh.abraham}@sun.com Abstract [26], [28], the processor checkpoints the architectural state and continues speculative execution that Data prefetching via helper threading has been prefetches subsequent misses in the shadow of the extensively investigated on Simultaneous Multi- initial triggering missing load. When the initial load Threading (SMT) or Virtual Multi-Threading (VMT) arrives, the processor resumes execution from the architectures. Although reportedly large cache checkpointed state. In software pre-execution (also latency can be hidden by helper threads at runtime, referred to as helper threads or software scouting) [2], most techniques rely on hardware support to reduce [4], [7], [10], [14], [24], [29], [35], a distilled version context switch overhead between the main thread and of the forward slice starting from the missing load is helper thread as well as rely on static profile feedback executed, minimizing the utilization of execution to construct the help thread code. This paper develops resources. Helper threads utilizing run-time a new solution by exploiting helper threaded pre- compilation techniques may also be effectively fetching through dynamic optimization on the latest deployed on processors that do not have the necessary UltraSPARC Chip-Multiprocessing (CMP) processor. hardware support for hardware scouting (such as Our experiments show that by utilizing the otherwise checkpointing and resuming regular execution). idle processor core, a single user-level helper thread Initial research on software helper threads is sufficient to improve the runtime performance of the developed the underlying run-time compiler main thread without triggering multiple thread slices. -

Day 2, 1640: Leveraging Opensparc
Leveraging OpenSPARC ESA Round Table 2006 on Next Generation Microprocessors for Space Applications G.Furano, L.Messina – TEC-EDD OpenSPARC T1 • The T1 is a new-from-the-ground-up SPARC microprocessor implementation that conforms to the UltraSPARC architecture 2005 specification and executes the full SPARC V9 instruction set. Sun has produced two previous multicore processors: UltraSPARC IV and UltraSPARC IV+, but UltraSPARC T1 is its first microprocessor that is both multicore and multithreaded. • The processor is available with 4, 6 or 8 CPU cores, each core able to handle four threads. Thus the processor is capable of processing up to 32 threads concurrently. • Designed to lower the energy consumption of server computers, the 8-cores CPU uses typically 72 W of power at 1.2 GHz. G.Furano, L.Messina – TEC-EDD 72W … 1.2 GHz … 90nm … • Is a cutting edge design, targeted for high-end servers. • NOT FOR SPACE USE • But, let’s see which are the potential spin-in … G.Furano, L.Messina – TEC-EDD Why OPEN ? On March 21, 2006, Sun made the UltraSPARC T1 processor design available under the GNU General Public License. The published information includes: • Verilog source code of the UltraSPARC T1 design, including verification suite and simulation models • ISA specification (UltraSPARC Architecture 2005) • The Solaris 10 OS simulation images • Diagnostics tests for OpenSPARC T1 • Scripts, open source and Sun internal tools needed to simulate the design and to do synthesis of the design • Scripts and documentation to help with FPGA implementation -

A given ISA may be implemented with different microarchitectures.[1] Implementations might vary due to different goals of a given design or due to shifts in technology.[2] Computer architecture is the combination of microarchitecture and instruction set design. Relation to instruction set architecture The ISA is roughly the same as the programming model of a processor as seen by an assembly language programmer or compiler writer. The ISA includes the execution model, processor registers, address and data formats among other things. The Intel Core microarchitecture microarchitecture includes the constituent parts of the processor and how these interconnect and interoperate to implement the ISA. The microarchitecture of a machine is usually represented as (more or less detailed) diagrams that describe the interconnections of the various microarchitectural elements of the machine, which may be everything from single gates and registers, to complete arithmetic logic units (ALU)s and even larger elements.
