2 Overview 1. background: extensible processors 2. design flow: C to custom processor silicon 3. instruction selection: bandwidth/area constraints 4. application-specific processor synthesis 5. results: 3x area delay product reduction 6. current and future work + summary
3
4 1. Instruction-set extensible processors base processor + custom logic partition data-flow graphs into custom instructions Register File ALU data in data out
5 Previous work many techniques, e.g. Atasu et al. (DAC 03, CODES 05) Biswas et al. (DATE 05), Cong et al. (FPGA 04) Clark et al. (MICRO 03, HOT CHIPS 04) Goodwin and Petkov (CASES 03) Sun et al. (ICCAD 03), Yu et al. (CASES 04) current challenges optimality and robustness of heuristics complete tool chain: application to silicon research infrastructure for custom processor design
6 2. Custom processor research at Imperial focus on effective optimization techniques e.g. Integer Linear Programming (ILP) complete tool-chain high-level descriptions to custom processor silicon open infrastructure for research in custom processor synthesis automatic customization techniques current tools optimizing compiler (Trimaran) for custom CPUs custom processor synthesis tool
7 Application to custom processor flow Application Source (C) Area Constraint Processor Description Template Generation Generate Custom Unit ASIC Tools Template Selection Generate Base CPU Area, Timing
8 Custom instruction model input ports Input Register Register File Pipeline Register output ports Output Register
9 3. Optimal instruction identification minimize schedule length of program data flow graphs (DFGs) subject to constraints convexity: ensure feasible schedules fixed processor critical path: pipeline for multi-cycle instructions fixed data bandwidth: limited by register file ports steps: based on Integer Linear Pogramming (ILP) a. template generation b. template selection
10 a. Template generation 1. Solve ILP for DFG to generate a template 2. Collapse template to a single DFG node X 3. Repeat while (objective > 0)
11 b. Template selection determine isomorphism classes find templates that can be implemented using the same instruction calculate speed-up potential of each class solve Knapsack problem using ILP maximize speedup within area constraint
12 Assembly Code and Statistics Application in C/C++ Optimizing compilation flow Impact Front-end VHDL Synopsys Synthesis Area Data Bandwidth Constraints CDFG Formation a) Template Generation Gain b) Template Selection MDES Generation Data Bandwidth Constraints Area Constraints Instruction Replacement Elcor Backend Scheduling, Reg. Allocation
13 4. Application-specific processor synthesis design space exploration framework Processor Component Library specialized structural description prototype: MIPS integer instruction set custom instructions flexible micro-architecture evaluate using actual implementation timing and area
14 Processor synthesis flow from compiler Custom Data paths merging add state registers processor interface Custom Processor Processor Component Library FE pipeline description parameters interface data in/out stall control FE EX M W
15 Implementation based on Python scripts structural meta-language for processors combine RTL (Verilog/VHDL) IP blocks module generators for custom units generate 100s of designs automatically ASIC processor cores complete system on FPGA: CPU + memory + I/O
16 5. Results cryptography benchmarks: C source AES decrypt, AES encrypt, DES, MD5, SHA 4/5 stage pipelined MIPS base processor 0.225mm 2 area, 200 MHz clock speed single issue processor register file with 2 input ports, 1 output port processors synthesized to 130nm library Synopsys DC and Cadence SoC Encounter also synthesize to Xilinx FPGA for testing
17 AES Decryption Processor 130nm CMOS 200MHz 0.307mm 2 35% area cost (mostly one instruction) 76% cycle reduction
18 AES Decryption Processor 130nm CMOS 200MHz 0.307mm 2 35% area cost (mostly one instruction) 76% cycle reduction
19 Normalised number of Cycles Execution time Register file in all cases: 2 input ports, 1 output port 43% reduction 63% reduction 76% reduction 4 inputs, 1 output 4 inputs, 2 outputs 4 inputs, 4 outputs 4 inputs, 1 output 4 inputs, 1 output AES decrypt AES encrypt DES MD5 SHA Area constraint (ripple carry adders)
20 Timing 48% of designs meet timing at 200MHz without manual optimization Slack/ns Cell area/µm 2
21 Area (for maximum speedup) Area/µm % 28% 42% 93% 23% Cell area Chip area aes dec aes enc des md5 sha base cpu
22 6. Current and future work support memory access in custom instructions automate data partitioning for memory access automate SIMD load/store instructions for state registers use architectural techniques e.g. shadow registers improve bandwidth without additional register file ports study trade-offs for VLIW style multiple issue vs custom instructions extend compiler: e.g. ILP model for cyclic graphs adapt software pipelining for hardware more applications: multimedia, multi-core, reconfig. include power consumption etc in optimization
23 Summary complete flow from C to custom processor automatic instruction set extension based on integer linear programming optimize schedule length under constraints application-specific processor synthesis complete flow: permits real hardware evaluation up to 76% reduction in execution cycles 3x area delay product reduction max speedup: 23% to 93% area overhead
