Technologies for generating composable library functions include a first computing device that includes a library compiler configured to compile a composable library and second computing device that includes an application compiler configured to compose library functions of the composable library based on a plurality of abstractions written at different levels of abstractions. For example, the abstractions may include an algorithm abstraction at a high level, a blocked-algorithm abstraction at medium level, and a region-based code abstraction at a low level. Other embodiments are described and claimed herein.

A system is disclosed that includes a processor and a dynamic random access memory (DRAM). The processor includes a hybrid transactional memory (HyTM) that includes hardware transactional memory (HTM), and a program debugger to replay a program that includes an HTM instruction and that has been executed has been executed using the HyTM. The program debugger includes a software emulator that is to replay the HTM instruction by emulation of the HTM. Other embodiments are disclosed and claimed.

A processor includes a decoder to decode an instruction, a scheduler to schedule the instruction, and an execution unit to execute the instruction. The instruction is to load a memory operation applicable to a quantity of addresses into an execution vector. The execution vector includes a plurality of vector positions for respective addressees. The instruction is further to evaluate, for a given address in the execution vector at a vector position, whether a cache indicates that a previous memory operation was performed at a higher vector position than the vector position of the given address. The instruction is also to determine, based on the evaluation whether the cache indicates that the previous memory operation was performed at a higher vector position than the vector position of the given address, whether the memory operation will cause a memory error.

Logic and instruction to efficiently monitor loop trip count. Loop trip count information of a loop may be stored in a dedicated hardware buffer. Average loop trip count of the loop may be calculated based on the stored loop trip count information. Based on the average trip count, loop optimizations may be applied or removed from the loop. The stored loop trip count information may include an identifier identifying the loop, a total loop trip count of the loop, and an exit count of the loop.

In one embodiment of the invention a method comprising (1) receiving an unstructured binary code region that is single-threaded; (2) determining a slice criterion for the region; (3) determining a call edge, a return edge, and a fallthrough pseudo-edge for the region based on analysis of the region at a binary level; and (4) determining a context-sensitive slice based on the call edge, the return edge, the fallthrough pseudo-edge, and the slice criterion. Embodiments of the invention may include a program analysis technique that can be used to provide context-sensitive slicing of binary programs for slicing hot regions identified at runtime, with few underlying assumptions about the program from which the binary is derived. Also, in an embodiment a slicing method may include determining a context-insensitive slice, when a time limit is met, by determining the context-insensitive slice while treating call edges as a normal control flow edges.

Methods, systems and machine readable media are disclosed for performing dynamic information flow tracking. One method includes executing operations of a program with a main thread, and tracking the main thread's execution of the operations of the program with a tracking thread. The method further includes updating, with the tracking thread, a taint value associated with the value of the main thread to reflect whether the value is tainted, and determining, with the tracking thread based upon the taint value, whether use of the value by the main thread violates a specific security policy.

A method and apparatus for efficient and consistent validation/conflict detection in a Software Transactional Memory (STM) system is herein described. A version check barrier is inserted after a load to compare versions of loaded values before and after the load. In addition, a global timestamp (GTS) is utilized to track a latest committed transaction. Each transaction is associated with a local timestamp (LTS) initialized to the GTS value at the start of a transaction. As a transaction commits it updates the GTS to a new value and sets versions of modified locations to the new value. Pending transactions compare versions determined in read barriers to their LTS. If the version is greater than their LTS indicating another transaction has committed after the pending transaction started and initialized the LTS, then the pending transaction validates its read set to maintain efficient and consistent transactional execution.

Example methods and apparatus to manage partial commit-checkpoints are disclosed. A disclosed example method includes identifying a commit instruction associated with a region of instructions executed by a processor, identifying candidate instructions from the region of instructions, and generating a processor partial commit-checkpoint to save a current state of the processor, the checkpoint based on calculated register values associated with live instructions, and including instruction reference addresses to link the candidate instructions.
