qemu-io 2.12 will be changing its default alignment to unknown servers so that it does read-modify-write for anything less than 512 bytes. If we implement NBD_OPT_GO, then we can keep qemu-io using 1-byte alignment; but until then, this breaks our parallel tests when using 1-byte alignment because they end up with more delays than expected (thanks to the read-modify-write). Revamp the tests to

Hello, I'd like to see support in clang/LLVM for multi-core parallelism, especially support for OpenMP. I think that the best way to do this is by designing an LLVM-based API (metadata and intrinsics) for expressing parallelism constructs, and having clang lower OpenMP code to that API. This will allow maximal preservation of optimization capabilities including target-specific lowering. What

Dear all, This RFC proposes three new LLVM IR instructions to express high-level parallel constructs in a simple, low-level fashion. For this first stage we prepared two commits that add the proposed instructions and a pass to lower them to obtain sequential IR. Both patches have be uploaded for review [1, 2]. The latter patch is very simple and the former consists of almost only mechanical

If nbdkit has a bug (such as the nbd-standalone bug fixed in the previous commit), qemu-io ends up waiting forever rather than realizing that if the server disappears unexpectedly then qemu-io should quit. So add timeouts so the testsuite will flag the problem instead of hang (tested by reordering this commit before the previous). It's trickier than I expected: from the command line,

Hal, Andrey, Alexey, >From the LLVM design viewpoint, there is a fundamental problem with both Hal's approach and the Intel approach: both are quite language-specific. OpenMP is a particular parallel language, with particular constructs (e.g., parallel regions) and semantics. LLVM is a language-neutral IR and infrastructure and OpenMP-specific concepts should not creep into it. I've

I'm part of a research group at MIT looking to create an extension of LLVM that inherently allows one to nicely code a parallel loop. Most parallel frameworks tend to take the body of a parallel loop and stick it inside of a function for the parallel runtime to call when appropriate. However, this makes optimizations significantly more difficult as most compiler optimizations tend to be

I assume the referring case is something like below, right? #pragma omp parallel num_threads(n) { #pragma omp critical { x = x + 1; } } If that is the case, the programmer is already writing the code that is not "serial equivalent". Our representation for parallelizer is %t = @llvm.region.entry()["omp.parallel"(),

A quick update, we have been looking through all LLVM passes to identify the impact of "IR-region annotation", and interaction issues with the rest of LoopOpt and scalarOpt, e.g. interaction with vectorization when you have schedule(simd:guided: 64). What are the common properties for optimizer to know on IR-region annotations. We have our implementation working from O0, O1, O2 to O3.

".... the problem Mehdi pointed out regarding the missed initializations of array elements, did you comment on that one yet?" What is the initializations of array elements question? I don't remember this question. Please refresh my memory. Thanks. I thought Mehdi's question is more about what are attributes needed for these IR-annotation for other LLVM pass to understand and

The IR-region annotation we proposed is as below, there is no @llvm.parallel.for.iterator()..... There is no change to loop CFG. alloc A[100]; %t = call token @llvm.region.entry()["parallel.for"()] for(i = 0; i < 100; i++) { a[i] = f(i); } @llvm.region.exit(%t)() ["end.parallel.for"()] Xinmin -----Original Message----- From: Johannes Doerfert

Hello all, Thanks for the comments. Attached is a new version with Tobias' and Sebastian's (final?) comments addressed. Any further comments are appreciated. Nadav suggested a request for comments in llvmdev before committing it. In order to describe the current idea of the parallel loop metadata, I think it's easiest to just copy-paste the documentation I wrote for this patch so
