摘要： A performance projection system includes a test IHS and a currently existing IHS. The performance projection system includes surrogate programs and user application software. The test IHS employs a memory that includes a virtual future IHS, currently existing IHS, surrogate programs, and user application software for determination of runtime and HW counter performance data. The user application software and surrogate programs execute on the currently existing MS to provide designers with runtime data and HW counter or microarchitecture dependent data. Designers execute surrogate programs on the future IHS to provide runtime and HW counter data. Designers normalize and weight the runtime and HW counter data to provide a representative surrogate program for comparison to user application software performance on the future IHS. Using a scaling factor, designers may generate a projection of runtime performance for the user application software executing on the future IHS.

摘要： A processor of an information handling system (IHS) initiates an L3 cache prefetch operation in response to a demand load during instruction processing. The processor selects an L3 cache prefetch at random for tracking as a target prefetched instruction. The processor initiates an L1 cache target prefetch operation and stores the resultant target prefetched instruction in the L1 cache. If a demand load arrives, the processor analyzes the target prefetched instruction for effectiveness and determines the source of the prefetch data. If a demand does not arrive, the processor tests to determine if the particular prefetched instruction timed out in the cache and identifies the ineffectiveness of the prefetch operation. The processor samples multiple prefetch operations at random and generates a history of prefetch effectiveness and other useful prefetch information. The processor stores the prefetch effectiveness information to enable reduction or removal of ineffective prefetch operations.

摘要： Occurrences of a particular event in an electronic device are counted by incrementing an event counter each time a variable number of the particular events have occurred, and automatically increasing that variable number as the total count increases. The variable number (prescale value) can increase geometrically according to a programmable counter base each time the count mantissa overflows. The event counter thereby provides hardware-implemented automatic prescaling while significantly reducing the number of interface bits required to support very large count ranges, and retaining high accuracy at very large event counts.
摘要翻译： 电子设备中的特定事件的发生通过在每次发生特定事件的可变数量时增加事件计数器来计数，并且随着总计数增加而自动增加该变量数。 每当计数尾数溢出时，可变数（预分频值）可根据可编程的计数器基数在几何上增加。 事件计数器由此提供硬件实现的自动预分频，同时显着减少支持非常大的计数范围所需的接口位数，并在非常大的事件计数下保持高精度。

摘要： During a pipeline stall in an out of order processor, until a next to complete instruction group completes, a monitoring unit receives, from a completion unit of a processor, a next to finish indicator indicating the finish of an oldest previously unfinished instruction from among a plurality of instructions of a next to complete instruction group. The monitoring unit receives, from a plurality of functional units of the processor, a plurality of finish reports including completion reasons for a plurality of separate instructions. The monitoring unit determines at least one stall reason from among multiple stall reasons for the oldest instruction from a selection of completion reasons from a selection of finish reports aligned with the next to finish indicator from among the plurality of finish reports. Once the monitoring unit receives a complete indicator from the completion unit, indicating the completion of the next to complete instruction group, the monitoring unit stores each determined stall reason aligned with each next to finish indicator in memory.

摘要： A filter executing on a processor monitors instructions executing on the processor to identify instructions that will benefit from performance tuning. Filtering instructions before analysis for performance tuning reduces overhead by identifying candidates for performance tuning with low cost monitoring before expending resources on analysis so that only instructions that will have performance tuning are analyzed. Reducing overhead for performance tuning makes performance tuning practical in a dynamic optimization environment in which instructions and their effective addresses change over time.

摘要： A test system or simulator includes an enhanced IC test application sampling software program that executes test application software on a semiconductor die IC design model. The enhanced test application sampling software may include trace, simulation point, CPI error, clustering, instruction budgeting, and other programs. The enhanced test application sampling software generates basic block vectors (BBVs) and fly-by vectors (FBVs) from instruction trace analysis of test application software workloads. The enhanced test application sampling software utilizes the microarchitecture dependent information to generate the FBVs to select representative instruction intervals from the test application software. The enhanced test application sampling software generates a reduced representative test application software program from the BBV and FBV data utilizing a global instruction budgeting analysis method. Designers use the test system with enhanced test application sampling software to evaluate IC design models by using the representative test application software program.

摘要： Methods, systems, and computer program products may provide delay-identification in data processing systems. An apparatus may include a delay-identification unit having a delay counter, a threshold register, a delay register, and a delay detector. The delay detector may be configured to start the delay counter in response to detecting that one group of instructions is delayed, and stop the delay counter in response to detecting that the one group of instructions is no longer delayed. The delay detector may additionally be configured to compare the number of cycles counted by the delay counter with a threshold number of cycles in the threshold register, and store at least one effective address of one of the instructions of the one group of instructions when the number of cycles counted by the delay counter is greater than the threshold number of cycles stored in the threshold register.
