摘要:
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.
摘要:
A texture unit may be used to perform general purpose mathematical computations such as dot products. This enables some general purpose computations and operations to be offloaded from a central processing unit to the texture unit. The texture unit may use linear interpolators in order to perform the dot product calculations.
摘要:
An apparatus and method are described for selecting elements to be used in a vector computation. For example, a method according to one embodiment includes the following operations: specifying whether to identify the first, last or next after last active element of an input mask register using an immediate value; identifying the first, last or next after last active element in the input mask register according to the immediate value; reading a value from an input vector register corresponding to the identified first, last or next after last active element in the input mask register; and writing the value to an output vector register.

摘要:
A proposal is discussed that facilitates exchanging parameters for a link layer that allows a variable number of parameters without changing a communication protocol. Likewise, the proposal allows for both components connected via the link to negotiate values for the parameters that are exchanged without a need for external agent intervention or redundancy.

摘要:
An apparatus and method for propagating conditionally evaluated values. For example, a method according to one embodiment comprises: reading each value contained in an input mask register, each value being a true value or a false value and having a bit position associated therewith; for each true value read from the input mask register, generating a first result containing the bit position of the true value; for each false value read from the input mask register following the first true value, adding the vector length of the input mask register to a bit position of the last true value read from the input mask register to generate a second result; and storing each of the first results and second results in bit positions of an output register corresponding to the bit positions read from the input mask register.
摘要:
Instructions and logic provide pushing buffer copy and store functionality. Some embodiments include a first hardware thread or processing core, and a second hardware thread or processing core, a cache to store cache coherent data in a cache line for a shared memory address accessible by the second hardware thread or processing core. Responsive to decoding an instruction specifying a source data operand, said shared memory address as a destination operand, and one or more owner of said shared memory address, one or more execution units copy data from the source data operand to the cache coherent data in the cache line for said shared memory address accessible by said second hardware thread or processing core in the cache when said one or more owner includes said second hardware thread or processing core.
摘要:
Methods and apparatus relating to gather or scatter operations in a multi-level cache are described. In some embodiments, a logic may determine whether to perform gather or scatter operations at a first memory or a second memory, based in part on a relative performance of performing the gather or scatter operations at the first memory and the second memory. Other embodiments are also described and claimed.
