Xeon Platinum 8280 Vs. AMD EPYC 7742 - Ubuntu Linux www.phoronix-test-suite.com Xeon Platinum 8280 vs. AMD EPYC 7742 - Ubuntu Linux AMD EPYC and Intel Xeon benchmarks by Michael Larabel... Mix of single and multi-threaded workloads. Admittedly somewhat random tests with the intent of just being to doing some validation on Phoronix Test Suite 9.4 and checking out the graphing code, PDF generation, etc. Take the actual results as you wish. Automated Executive Summary 2 x EPYC 7742 had the most wins, coming in first place for 61% of the tests. Based on the geometric mean of all complete results, the fastest (2 x EPYC 7742) was 1.2x the speed of the slowest (2 x Xeon Platinum 8280). The results with the greatest spread from best to worst included: Tungsten Renderer (Scene: Volumetric Caustic) at 3.53x - MBW (Test: Memory Copy - Array Size: 4096 MiB) at 3.22x - Parboil (Test: OpenMP MRI Gridding) at 3.02x - Hackbench (Count: 32 - Type: Process) at 3.01x - Tachyon (Total Time) at 2.62x - C-Ray (Total Time - 4K, 16 Rays Per Pixel) at 2.37x - dav1d (Video Input: Chimera 1080p) at 2.33x Xeon Platinum 8280 vs. AMD EPYC 7742 - Ubuntu Linux - Coremark (CoreMark Size 666 - Iterations Per Second) at 2.3x - dav1d (Video Input: Summer Nature 1080p) at 2.17x - GraphicsMagick (Operation: Sharpen) at 2.17x.

  • Aligning Intent and Behavior in Software Systems: How Programs Communicate & Their Distribution and Organization
    © 2020 William B. Dietz ALIGNING INTENT AND BEHAVIOR IN SOFTWARE SYSTEMS: HOW PROGRAMS COMMUNICATE & THEIR DISTRIBUTION AND ORGANIZATION BY WILLIAM B. DIETZ DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Computer Science in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2020 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Vikram Adve, Chair Professor John Regehr, University of Utah Professor Tao Xie Assistant Professor Sasa Misailovic ABSTRACT Managing the overwhelming complexity of software is a fundamental challenge because complex- ity is the root cause of problems regarding software performance, size, and security. Complexity is what makes software hard to understand, and our ability to understand software in whole or in part is essential to being able to address these problems effectively. Attacking this overwhelming complexity is the fundamental challenge I seek to address by simplifying how we write, organize and think about programs. Within this dissertation I present a system of tools and a set of solutions for improving the nature of software by focusing on programmer’s desired outcome, i.e. their intent. At the program level, the conventional focus, it is impossible to identify complexity that, at the system level, is unnecessary. This “accidental complexity” includes everything from unused features to independent implementations of common algorithmic tasks. Software techniques driving innovation simultaneously increase the distance between what is intended by humans – developers, designers, and especially the users – and what the executing code does in practice. By preserving the declarative intent of the programmer, which is lost in the traditional process of compiling and linking and building software, it is easier to abstract away unnecessary details.

  • Phoronix Test Suite V4.0.1 (Suldal)
    www.phoronix-test-suite.com Phoronix Test Suite v4.0.1 (Suldal) User Manual Phoronix Test Suite v4.0.1 Test Client Documentation Getting Started Overview The Phoronix Test Suite is the most comprehensive testing and benchmarking platform available for Linux, Solaris, Mac OS X, and BSD operating systems. The Phoronix Test Suite allows for carrying out tests in a fully automated manner from test installation to execution and reporting. All tests are meant to be easily reproducible, easy-to-use, and support fully automated execution. The Phoronix Test Suite is open-source under the GNU GPLv3 license and is developed by Phoronix Media in cooperation with partners. Version 1.0 of the Phoronix Test Suite was publicly released in 2008. The Phoronix Test Suite client itself is a test framework for providing seamless execution of test profiles and test suites. There are more than 200 tests available by default, which are transparently available via OpenBenchmarking.org integration. Of these default test profiles there is a range of sub-systems that can be tested and a range of hardware from mobile devices to desktops and worksrtations/servers. New tests can be easily introduced via the Phoronix Test Suite's extensible test architecture, with test profiles consisting of XML files and shell scripts. Test profiles can produce a quantitative result or other qualitative/abstract results like image quality comparisons and pass/fail. Using Phoronix Test Suite modules, other data can also be automatically collected at run-time such as the system power consumption, disk usage, and other software/hardware sensors. Test suites contain references to test profiles to execute as part of a set or can also reference other test suites.

  • Process Authentication for High System Assurance
    168 IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON DEPENDABLE AND SECURE COMPUTING, VOL. 11, NO. 2, MARCH/APRIL 2014 Process Authentication for High System Assurance Hussain M.J. Almohri, Member, IEEE, Danfeng (Daphne) Yao, Member, IEEE, and Dennis Kafura, Member, IEEE Abstract—This paper points out the need in modern operating system kernels for a process authentication mechanism, where a process of a user-level application proves its identity to the kernel. Process authentication is different from process identification. Identification is a way to describe a principal; PIDs or process names are identifiers for processes in an OS environment. However, the information such as process names or executable paths that is conventionally used by OS to identify a process is not reliable. As a result, malware may impersonate other processes, thus violating system assurance. We propose a lightweight secure application authentication framework in which user-level applications are required to present proofs at runtime to be authenticated to the kernel. To demonstrate the application of process authentication, we develop a system call monitoring framework for preventing unauthorized use or access of system resources. It verifies the identity of processes before completing the requested system calls. We implement and evaluate a prototype of our monitoring architecture in Linux. The results from our extensive performance evaluation show that our prototype incurs reasonably low overhead, indicating the feasibility of our approach for cryptographically authenticating applications and their processes in the operating system. Index Terms—Operating system security, process authentication, secret application credential, system call monitoring Ç 1INTRODUCTION YPICAL operating system kernels enforce minimal re- User authentication through techniques such as password Tstrictions on the applications permitted to execute, or public-key cryptosystem is common in multiuser system resulting in the ability of malicious programs to abuse or network environments.

Foremost, it is the result of collaborations, ongoing discussions, and inspirations from many ac- quaintances, companions, and friends. A particularly inspiring giant that supervised the present work is Prof. Stefan Tai whom I like to thank for his patient advises, engage- ment, and steady support of this project. Furthermore, I am deeply thankful I had the luck to spend time with the most intriguing colleagues1. The way all of them engage in discussions and strive for the best is remarkable. Companionships between like-minded researchers develop unaffected by distance or time zones.

Estudio comparativo de frameworks de Instrumentaci´on Din´amica de Ejecutables RESUMEN La Instrumentaci´on Din´amica de Ejecutables (Dynamic Binary Instrumentation, DBI) es una t´ecnica muy potente que permite analizar el comportamiento, en tiem- po de ejecuci´on, de cualquier aplicaci´on. DBI se puede usar, por ejemplo, para contar el n´umero de instrucciones que ejecuta o contar todas las transferencias (lectura y/o escritura) a memoria que realiza un determinado programa. DBI tiene diferentes usos seg´un sea el perfil de la persona que lo use. Por ejemplo, para un programador, DBI ayudar´aa identificar las partes cr´ıticas del c´odigo; para un desarrollador de un procesador nuevo, DBI simular´aesta nueva arquitectura; y para un programador de compiladores en una nueva arquitectura, DBI ayudar´aa la colo- caci´on de las instrucciones para mejorar el paralelismo o c´omo preparar profile-guided optimizacions (PGO).
