摘要:
Terminating an accelerator application program in a hybrid computing environment that includes a host computer having a host computer architecture and an accelerator having an accelerator architecture, where the host computer and the accelerator are adapted to one another for data communications by a system level message passing module (‘SLMPM’), and terminating an accelerator application program in a hybrid computing environment includes receiving, by the SLMPM from a host application executing on the host computer, a request to terminate an accelerator application program executing on the accelerator; terminating, by the SLMPM, execution of the accelerator application program; returning, by the SLMPM to the host application, a signal indicating that execution of the accelerator application program was terminated; and performing, by the SLMPM, a cleanup of the execution environment associated with the terminated accelerator application program.

Synchronizing access to resources in a hybrid computing environment that includes a host computer, a plurality of accelerators, the host computer and the accelerators adapted to one another for data communications by a system level message passing module, where synchronizing access to resources includes providing in a registry, to processes executing on the accelerators and the host computer, a key associated with a resource, the key having a value; attempting, by a process, to access the resource including determining whether a current value of the key represents an unlocked state for the resource; if the current value represents an unlocked state, attempting to lock access to the resource including setting the value to a unique identification of the process; determining whether the current value is the unique identification of the process; if the current value is the unique identification accessing the resource by the process.

Direct memory access (‘DMA’) in a hybrid computing environment that includes a host computer, an accelerator, the host computer and the accelerator adapted to one another for data communications by a system level message passing module, where DMA includes identifying, by the system level message passing module, a buffer of data to be transferred from the host computer to the accelerator according to a DMA protocol; segmenting, by the system level message passing module, the buffer of data into a predefined number of memory segments; pinning, by the system level message passing module, the memory segments against paging; and asynchronously with respect to pinning the memory segments, effecting, by the system level message passing module, DMA transfers of the pinned memory segments from the host computer to the accelerator.
