    Abstract: A simultaneous multi-threading (SMT) processor core capable of thread-based biasing with respect to execution resources. The SMT processor includes priority controller circuitry to determine a thread priority value for each of a plurality of threads to be executed by the SMT processor core and to generate a priority vector comprising the thread priority value of each of the plurality of threads. The SMT processor further includes thread selector circuitry to make execution cycle assignments of a pipeline by assigning to each of the plurality of threads a portion of the pipeline's execution cycles based on each thread's priority value in the priority vector. The thread selector circuitry is further to select, from the plurality of threads, tasks to be processed by the pipeline based on the execution cycle assignments.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for an accelerator controller hub (ACH). The ACH may be a stand-alone component or integrated on-die or on package in an accelerator such as a GPU. The ACH may include a host device link (HDL) interface, one or more Peripheral Component Interconnect Express (PCIe) interfaces, one or more high performance accelerator link (HPAL) interfaces, and a router, operatively coupled to each of the HDL interface, the one or more PCIe interfaces, and the one or more HPAL interfaces. The HDL interface is configured to be coupled to a host CPU via an HDL link and the one or more HPAL interfaces are configured to be coupled to one or more HPALs that are used to access high performance accelerator fabrics (HPAFs) such as NVlink fabrics and CCIX (Cache Coherent Interconnect for Accelerators) fabrics. Platforms including ACHs or accelerators with integrated ACHs support RDMA transfers using RDMA semantics to enable transfers between accelerator memory on initiators and targets without CPU involvement.

    Abstract: An apparatus and method for closed loop dynamic resource allocation. For example, one embodiment of a method comprises: collecting data related to usage of a plurality of resources by a plurality of workloads over one or more time periods, the workloads including priority workloads associated with one or more guaranteed performance levels and best effort workloads not associated with guaranteed performance levels; analyzing the data to identify resource reallocations from one or more of the priority workloads to one or more of the best effort workloads in one or more subsequent time periods while still maintaining the guaranteed performance levels; reallocating the resources from the priority workloads to the best effort workloads for the subsequent time periods; monitoring execution of the priority workloads with respect to the guaranteed performance level during the subsequent time periods; and preemptively reallocating resources from the best effort workloads to the priority workloads during the subsequent time periods to ensure compliance with the guaranteed performance level and responsive to detecting that the guaranteed performance level is in danger of being breached.
