  8. HeterogeneousParallel Computing • Template features • Host processor core (ARM Big.Little) • Programmable multi-core accelerator (GPPA) • Hierarchical interconnect fabric • CCI-400 (a crossbar) • System NoC (a network-on-chip) GOAL: prototype an innovative GPPA capable of running multiple concurrent offload applications by means of isolated and reserved computation partitions

  9. MULTI-CORE ACCELERATOR PROTOTYPING • Virtex 7 evaluation board VC-707 • XC7VX485T chip, 486l logic cells, 76k slices, 36 Mb BRAM • Advanced GHz-range transceivers, on-board RAM and flash, display, Ethernet, etc.

  15. KEY PERFORMED TESTS (1) • Initial NoC testing (for stuck-at faults) and configuration • Detection of a link failure • NoC is configured to route around it • Matrix Multiply benchmark starts on the 16 mesh MicroBlazes • Objective: configuration ok, rerouting ok, benchmark ok

  16. KEY PERFORMED TESTS (2) • Button press, fabric controller (supervision MicroBlaze) initiates dynamic space-division multiplexing (SDM) • MicroBlazes start new SDM-aware tasks • Objective: prove partition isolation, differentiated partition shape-dependent execution time

  17. PLATFORM IMPLEMENTATION 4x4 mesh Mesh NIs Dual NoC MicroBlazes and other Beyond 90% resource utilization!

  18. Accelerator Offload Example: offload packet (data and binary for the GPPA) • OpenMP RTE forwards offload request to guest GPPA Driver • Guest GPPA Driver forwards it to the the GPPA emulation device • GPPA emulation device forwards the request to the GPPA bridge and copies data and binary from Guest memory space to host memory space • GPPA bridge forwards the packet to the Host GPPA driver and copies data and binary from host virtual memory to contiguous memory shared with the GPPA (L3 memory) Tsk data Tsk data Tsk data GPPAbrctl App Tsk data Tsk desc Resource allocation/management ioctl Tsk desc Tsk desc Tsk desc Guest Memory API API Kernel /dev/GPPAv GUEST POSIX Queue Host Memory iowrite Contiguous Memory GPPAv Tsk data QEMU/KVM KVM /dev/GPPA HOST GPPA

  19. GPPA Offload • CURRENTLY AIMING AT A UNIQUE PROTOTYPING PLATFORM • The offload procedure relies on copiesinto a non-paged, contiguousmemoryrange (seenasmmap-ed IO) • COPIES ARE AVOIDED IN REAL SYSTEMS BY MEANS OF AN IOMMU! Example: offload packet (data and binary for the GPPA) • OpenMP RTE forwards offload request to guest GPPA Driver • Guest GPPA Driver forwards it to the the GPPA emulation device • GPPA emulation device forwards the request to the GPPA bridge and copies data and binary from Guest memory space to host memory space • GPPA bridge forwards the packet to the Host GPPA driver and copies data and binary from host virtual memory to contiguous memory shared with the GPPA (L3 memory) Tsk data Tsk data Tsk data GPPAbrctl App Tsk data Tsk desc Resource allocation/management Tsk desc Tsk desc Tsk desc Guest Memory API API Kernel /dev/GPPAv GUEST POSIX Queue Host Memory Contiguous Memory GPPAv Tsk data QEMU/KVM Validated on ODROID KVM /dev/GPPA HOST GPPA
