  1. GUARANTEED! Low Cost, High Performance, and Scalability: A New Approach to User-Level Distributed Shared Memory OR YOUR MONEY BACK!!! Patrick Anthony La Fratta WORTS 2005 15 December 2005

  2. Programming Models: Message-Passing

  3. Programming Models: Message-Passing

  4. Programming Models: Shared Memory

  5. Implementing a DSM System at the User Level

  6. Initialization, Step 1: Get size of shared memory segment. Implementing the DSM Client

  7. Initialization, Step 2: Map n pages into local memory. Implementing the DSM Client

  8. Initialization, Step 3: Take away all access privileges from the shared segments. Implementing the DSM Client

  9. Initialization, Step 4: Set up the segmentation fault handler. Implementing the DSM Client

  10. Application Reads Shared Address: Preview Implementing the DSM System

  11. Implementing the DSM System Shared address read, Step 1: Application reads shared address.

  12. Implementing the DSM System Shared address read, Step 2: Control transferred to seg-fault handler.

  13. Implementing the DSM System Shared address read, Step 3: Client contacts the server to get the page’s data.

  14. Implementing the DSM System Shared address read, Step 4: Client grants read access privileges to application.

  15. Application Writes Shared Address: Preview Implementing the DSM System

  16. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 1: Application writes shared address.

  17. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 2: Control transferred to seg-fault handler.

  18. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 3: Client contacts server to with write notification.

  19. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 4: Server calls back all other copies of pages being written.

  20. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 5: Server indicates to client to proceed.

  21. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 6: Client grants write privileges to application.

  22. Implementing the DSM System Shared address write, Step 7: Later, the app detaches pages so others may use them.

  23. Preliminary Results: All Pairs Shortest Paths Note: Results matched for all test cases, and all runs completed successfully.

  24. System Profiling: All Pairs Shortest Paths

  25. System Profiling: All Pairs Shortest Paths

  26. System Modifications and Extensions System profiles resulted in: • Better understanding of the trade-offs in the design of the interface. • Efficient synchronization primitives through extended memory semantics with full/empty bits. • Server-side per-page locking and client-side full- page flushing. • * Speedups > 1! *

  27. Performance Results: Speedup for Various Configurations

  28. Performance Results: Trends

  29. Scalability: Enable clients to use more than one server. • Peer-to-peer: Merge the server and client modules. • Fault-tolerance: Checkpoint and Migration? • Further testing: Implement and evaluate performance of other parallel applications. Future Work Questions?
