Abstract: Methods to automatically prioritize input/output (I/O) for Network Function Virtualization (NFV) workloads at platform overload and associated apparatus and mechanisms. During lab or runtime workload operations, various platform telemetry data are collected and analyzed to determine whether a current workload is uncore-sensitive—that is, sensitive to operations involving utilization of the uncore circuitry such as I/O-related operations, memory bandwidth utilization, LLC utilization, network traffic, core-to-core traffic etc. For uncore sensitive workloads, upon detection of a platform overload condition such as a thermal load approaching a TDP limit, the uncore circuitry is prioritized over the core circuitry such that the frequency of the core is reduced first. A closed-loop feedback mechanism is used to adjust the frequencies of the core and uncore under various workload conditions. The mechanism enables I/O throughput to be maintained for NFV workloads, while reducing the processor thermal load.

Abstract: Technologies for providing adaptive polling of packet queues include a compute device. The compute device includes a network interface controller and a compute engine that includes a set of cores and a memory that includes a queue to store packets received by the network interface controller. The compute engine is configured to determine a predicted time period for the queue to receive packets without overflowing, execute, during the time period and with a core that is assigned to periodically poll the queue for packets, a workload, and poll, with the assigned core, the queue to remove the packets from the queue. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.

Abstract: Technologies for power-aware scheduling include a computing device that receives network packets. The computing device classifies the network packets by priority level and then assigns each network packet to a performance group bin. The packets are assigned based on priority level and other performance criteria. The computing device schedules the network packets assigned to each performance group for processing by a processing engine such as a processor core. Network packets assigned to performance groups having a high priority level are scheduled for processing by processing engines with a high performance level. The computing device may select performance levels for processing engines based on processing workload of the network packets. The computing device may control the performance level of the processing engines, for example by controlling the frequency of processor cores. The processing workload may include packet encryption. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: Technologies for performance monitoring include a computing device having multiple processor cores. The computing device performs a training workload with a processor core by continuously polling an empty input queue. The computing device determines empty polling thresholds based on the empty polling workload. The computing device performs a packet processing workload with one or more processor cores by continuously polling input queues associated with network traffic. The computing device compares a measured number of empty polls performed by the packet processing workload against the empty polling thresholds. The computing device configures power management of one or more processor cores in response to the comparison. The computing device may determine empty polling trends and compare the measured number of empty polls and the empty polling trends to the empty polling thresholds.
