Abstract: A processing system divides successive dispatches of work items into portions. The successive dispatches are separated from each other by barriers, each barrier indicating that the work items of the previous dispatch must complete execution before work items of a subsequent dispatch can begin execution. In some embodiments, the processing system interleaves execution of portions of a first dispatch with portions of subsequent dispatches that consume data produced by the first dispatch. The processing system thereby reduces the amount of data written to the local cache by a producer dispatch while preserving data locality for a subsequent consumer (or consumer/producer) dispatch and facilitating processing efficiency.

Abstract: A processing device and a method of auto-tiled workload processing is provided. The processing device includes memory and a processor. The processor is configured to store instructions for operations to be executed on an image to be divided into a plurality of tiles, store information associated with the operations, select one of the operations for execution and execute an auto-tiling plan for the operation based on the information associated with the operations. The auto-tiling plan comprises, for example, determining a number of tiles used to divide the image and determining a size of one or more of the tiles of the image.

Abstract: A processing system selectively allocates storage at a local cache of a parallel processing unit for cache lines of a repeating pattern of data that exceeds the storage capacity of the cache. The processing system identifies repeating patterns of data having cache lines that have a reuse distance that exceeds the storage capacity of the cache. A cache controller allocates storage for only a subset of cache lines of the repeating pattern of data at the cache and excludes the remainder of cache lines of the repeating pattern of data from the cache. By restricting the cache to store only a subset of cache lines of the repeating pattern of data, the cache controller increases the hit rate at the cache for the subset of cache lines.

Abstract: A processing system is configured to translate a first cache access pattern of a dispatch of work items to a cache access pattern that facilitates consumption of data stored at a cache of a parallel processing unit by a subsequent access before the data is evicted to a more remote level of the memory hierarchy. For consecutive cache accesses having read-after-read data locality, in some embodiments the processing system translates the first cache access pattern to a space-filling curve. In some embodiments, for consecutive accesses having read-after-write data locality, the processing system translates a first typewriter cache access pattern that proceeds in ascending order for a first access to a reverse typewriter cache access pattern that proceeds in descending order for a subsequent cache access. By translating the cache access pattern based on data locality, the processing system increases the hit rate of the cache.

Abstract: A processing unit performs a dispatch walk of a set of thread groups based on a programmable access pattern. The access pattern is stored at a table that is programmed with the access pattern based upon a specified command. By using the command to program the table with different access patterns, the dispatch order of the set of thread groups is adapted to better suit the processing of different data sets, thereby reducing power consumption at the processing unit, and improving overall processing efficiency.
