摘要:
Techniques for utilizing processor cores include sequestering processor cores for use independently from an operating system. In at least one embodiment of the invention, a method includes executing an operating system on a first subset of cores including one or more cores of a plurality of cores of a computer system. The operating system executes as a guest under control of a virtual machine monitor. The method includes executing work for an application on a second subset of cores including one or more cores of the plurality of cores. The first and second subsets of cores are mutually exclusive and the second subset of cores is not visible to the operating system. In at least one embodiment, the method includes sequestering the second subset of cores from the operating system.

摘要:
A method tolerates virtual to physical address translation failures. A translation request is sent from a graphics processing device to a translation mechanism. The translation request is associated with a first wavefront. A fault notification is received within an accelerated processing device (APD) from the translation mechanism that a request cannot be acknowledged. The first wavefront is, stored within a shader core of the APD if the fault notification is received. The first wavefront is replaced with a second wavefront if the fault notification is received, the second wavefront being ready to be executed.
摘要:
Methods, systems, and computer readable media embodiments are disclosed for preemptive context-switching of processes running on a accelerated processing device. Embodiments include, detecting by an accelerated processing device a memory exception, and preempting a process from running on the accelerated processing device based upon the detected exception.
摘要:
Embodiments described herein provide a method of arbitrating a processing resource. The method includes receiving a command to preempt a task and preventing additional wavefronts associated with the task from being processed. The method also includes evicting currently executing wavefronts associated with the task from being processed based upon predetermined criteria
摘要:
Provided herein is a method including receiving a run list including one or more processes to run on an accelerated processing device, wherein each of the one or more processes is associated with a corresponding independent job command queue. The method also includes scheduling each of the one or more processes to run on the accelerated processing device based on a criteria associated with each process.

摘要:
A method resumes an accelerated processing device (APD) wavefront in which a subset of elements have faulted. A restore command for a job including a wavefront is received. A list of context states for the wavefront is read from a memory associated with a APD. An empty shell wavefront is created for restoring the list of context states. A portion of not acknowledged data is masked over a portion of acknowledged data within the restored wavefronts.

Methods, systems, and computer readable media embodiments are disclosed for preemptive context-switching of processes running on an accelerated processing device. A method includes, responsive to an exception upon access to a memory by a process running on a accelerated processing device, whether to preempt the process based on the exception, and preempting, based upon the determining, the process from running on the accelerated processing device.
