  • APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR PARTITIONED SHUFFLES
    Publication number: 20250103337
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for partitioned shuffling of data elements. A first partition is associated with a first number of source data elements corresponding to a first plurality of lanes having a first plurality of lane identifiers (IDs) and a second partition is associated with a second number of source data elements corresponding to a second plurality of lanes having a second plurality of lane IDs. A bounded offset vector is generated based on allowable ranges for a plurality of offset values associated with the source data elements. An index vector is generated by permuting the first and second plurality of lane IDs in accordance with the bounded offset vector.

  • PROCESSOR CIRCUITRY TO DETERMINE AN ENABLEMENT STATE FOR A CONSTRAINT ON MULTIPLE THREADS OF EXECUTION
    Publication number: 20230409322
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for determining a relative order in which respective microoperations of execution threads are performed. In an embodiment, a processor comprises a control register and circuitry which enables an executing program to set a control parameter which is provided by the control register. The control parameter determines whether the processor is to provide a control which applies one or more synchronization requirements to threads of execution which are of the same thread group. In another embodiment, the control is configurable to selectively provide implicit synchronization between some or all such threads.

  • Apparatus, Device, Method, and Computer Program for Scheduling an Execution of Compute Kernels
    Publication number: 20220365813
    Abstract: Examples relate to an apparatus, a device, a method, and a computer program for scheduling an execution of compute kernels on one or more computing devices, and to a computer system comprising such an apparatus or device. The apparatus comprises processing circuitry and interface circuitry. The processing circuitry is configured to determine an impending execution of two or more compute kernels to the one or more computing devices. The processing circuitry is configured to pipeline a data transfer related to the execution of the two or more compute kernels to the one or more computing devices via the interface circuitry.
