Source: High Performance Technical Computing Market: Review and Forecast, 1997-2002 International Data Corporation, September 1998 IDC: NUMA is the future “Buses are the preferred approach for SMP implementations because of their relatively low cost. However, scalability is limited by the performance of the bus.” “NUMA SMP ... appears to be the preferred memory architecture for next-generation systems.”

  15. Memory Hierarchy • 1. local cpu registers • 2. local cpu cache 5 ns • 3. local memory 318 ns • 4. remote memory 554 ns • 5. remote caches

  16. Directory Based Cache Coherency Cache Coherency == System hw guarantees that every cached copy remains a true reflection of the memory data, without sw intervention. Directory Bits consist of two parts: a. 8-bit integer representing node that has exclusive ownership of data b. Bit map that represents which nodes have copies of data in cache.

  17. Cache Example • 1. data read into cache for thread on CPU 0 • 2. threads on CPUs 1 and 2 read data into cache • 3. thread on CPU 2 updates data in cache (cacheline is set exclusive) • 4. Eventually cache line gets invalidated

  28. Enabling Technologies IRIX: NUMA Aware OS and System Utilities

  29. Default Memory Placement • Memory allocated on “first-touch” basis- on node where process that defines page is running - or as close as possible (minimize latency) • - developers should initialize work areas in newly created threads • IRIX scheduler maintains process affinity • - re-schedules jobs on processor where they ran last • - or on other CPU in the same node • - or as close as possible )minimize latency)

  30. Alternatives to “first-touch” policy • Round Robin Allocation • - Data is distributed at run-time among all nodes used for execution • - setenv_DSM_ROUND_ROBIN_

  31. Dynamic Page Migration • IRIX can keep track of run-time memory access patterns and dynamically copy pages to new node. • Expensive operation. Requires: daemon, TLB invalidations, and the memory copy itself.) • setenv _DSM_MIGRATION ON • setenv _DSM_MIGRATION_LEVEL 90

  32. Explicit Placement: source directives • integer i, j, n, niters • parameter (n = 8*1024*1024, niters = 1000) • c-----Note that the distribute directive is used after the arrays • c-----are declared. • real a(n), b(n), q • c$distribute a(block), b(block) • c-----initialization • do i = 1, n • a(i) = 1.0 - 0.5*i • b(i) = -10.0 + 0.01*(i*i) • enddo • c-----real work • do it = 1, niters • q = 0.01*it • c$doacross local(i), shared(a,b,q), affinity (i) = data(a(i)) • do i = 1, n • a(i) = a(i) + q*b(i) • enddo • enddo

  33. Explicit Placement: dprof / dplace • Used for application that don’t use libmp (ie. explicit sproc, fork, pthreads, mpi, etc) • dprof: profiles memory access pattern • dplace can: • Change the page size used • Enable page migration • Specify the topology used by the threads of a parallel program • Indicate resource affinities • Assign memory ranges to particular nodes

  36. Feeds and Speeds

  37. Taking Advantage of Multiple CPUs Parallel Programming Models Available on Origin Family

  38. Many Different Models and Tools To Choose From • Automatic Parallelization Option: compiler flags • Compiler Source Directives: OpenMP, c$doacross, etc • explicit multi-threading: pthreads, sproc • Message Passing APIs: MPI, PVM

  39. Computing Value of π: Simple Serial • program compute_pi • integer n, i • double precision w, x, sum,pi, f, a • c function to integrate • f(a) = 4.d0 / (1.d0 + a*a) • print *, ‘Enter number of intervals:’ • read *,n • c calculate the interval size • w =1.0d0/n • sum = 0.0d0 • do i = 1,n • x = w * (i - 0.5d0) • sum = sum + f(x) • end do • pi = w * sum • print *, ‘computed pi =‘ ,pi • stop • end

  40. Automatic Parallelization Option • Add-on option for SGI MipsPro compilers • compiler searches for loops that it can parallelize • f77 -apo compute_pi.f77 • setenv MP_SET_NUM_THREADS 4 • ./a.out

  41. OpenMP Source Directives • program compute_pi • integer n, i • double precision w, x, sum,pi, f, a • c function to integrate • f(a) = 4.d0 / (1.d0 + a*a) • print *, ‘Enter number of intervals:’ • read *,n • c calculate the interval size • w =1.0d0/n • sum = 0.0d0 • !$OMP PARALLEL DO PRIVATE(X), SHARED(W), REDUCTION(+:sum) • do i = 1,n • x = w * (i - 0.5d0) • sum = sum + f(x) • end do • !$OMP END PARALLEL DO • pi = w * sum • print *, ‘computed pi =‘ ,pi • stop • end

  42. Message Passing Interface (MPI) • program compute_pi • Include ‘mpif.h’ • integer n, i, myid, numprocs, rc • double precision w, x, sum,pi, f, a • c function to integrate • f(a) = 4.d0 / (1.d0 + a*a) • call MPI_INIT(ierr) • call MPI_COMM_RANK(MPI_COMM_WORLD, myid, ierr) • call MPI_COMM_SIZE(MPI_COMM_WORLD, numprocs, ierr) • if (myid .eq. 0) then • print *, ‘Enter number of intervals:’ • read *,n • endif • call MPI_BCAST(n,1,MPI_INTEGER,0,MPI_COMM_WORLD,ierr) • c calculate the interval size • w =1.0d0/n • sum = 0.0d0 • do i = myid+1, n, numprocs • x = w * (i - 0.5d0) • sum = sum + f(x) • end do

  43. Message Passing Interface (MPI) • mypi = w * sum • c collect all the partial sums • call MPI_REDUCE(mypi,pi,1,MPI_DOUBLE_PRECISION,MPI_SUM,0, • $MPI_COMM_WORLD,ierr) • c node 0 prints the answer • if (myid .eq. 0) then • print *, ‘computed pi =‘ ,pi • endif • call MPI_FINALIZE(rc) • stop • end
