2 Data Dependencies Problem with starting next instruction before first is finished dependencies that “go backward in time” are data hazards qual instrução receberá o valor errado de $2 (velho 10, novo -20) I M R e g C 1 2 3 4 5 6 T i m ( n c l o k y s ) u b $ , P r a x t d D 7 8 9 / – w V f :

3 Erro devido à dependência de dados
sub $2, $1, $3 and $12, $2, $5 or $13, $6, $2 add $14, $2, $2 sw $15, 100($2) and e or lêem resultado errado (velho 10) store está claramente à direita (depois no tempo) e lê resultado certo (-20) hazard no add pode ser evitado se a escrita no banco de registradores for feita (em CC5) na metade do ciclo (borda de descida) CC CC CC6 Reg WR Reg RD

4 Software Solution Have compiler guarantee no hazards
Where do we insert the “nops” ? Quantos sub $2, $1, $3 and $12, $2, $5 or $13, $6, $2 add $14, $2, $2 sw $15, 100($2) Problem: this really slows us down!

5 Forwarding Use temporary results, don’t wait for them to be written
register file forwarding to handle read/write to same register ALU forwarding I M R e g C 1 2 3 4 5 6 T i m ( n c l o k y s ) u b $ , P r a x t d D 7 8 9 / – w V f : X E W B what if this $2 was $13?

.

7 Can't always forward Load word can still cause a hazard:
an instruction tries to read a register following a load instruction that writes to the same register. Thus, we need a hazard detection unit to “stall” the load instruction R e g I M C 1 2 3 4 5 6 T i m ( n c l o k y s ) w $ , P r a x u t d D 7 8 9

8 Stalling We can stall the pipeline by keeping an instruction in the same stage l w $ 2 , ( 1 ) P r o g a m e x c u t i n d s 4 5 8 6 9 7 R I M D C 3 T k y b

9 Hazard Detection Unit Stall by letting an instruction that won’t write anything go forward P C I n s t r u c i o m e y R g M x l A L U E X W B D / a H z d F w .

M x I F / D W P C E X . R g s $ 2 5 4 B m y , b l w f < 1 > k A L U 9 Exemplo pag 493

12 Branch Hazards When we decide to branch, other instructions are in the pipeline! We are predicting “branch not taken” (stalling is too slow) need to add hardware for flushing instructions if we are wrong R e g C 1 T i m ( n c l o k y s ) 4 b q $ , 3 7 P r a x u t d I M D 2 5 8 6 w 9

13 Diminuindo a penalidade do “branch taken”
no esquema anterior decisão só é tomada no estágio MEM caso “branch taken” é necessário limpar (flush) os estágios IF, ID e EX 3 clocks perdidos para diminuir a penalidade: antecipar a decisão do estágio MEM para o estágio ID economia de dois clocks flush somente instrução sendo lida da memória (fetched) mudanças no hardware: cálculo do endereço do desvio (PC + offset<<2) comparação dos registradores 32 XORs com or na saída mais rápido do que a ALU

14 Flushing Instructions

15 Improving Performance
Try and avoid stalls! E.g., reorder these instructions: lw $t0, 0($t1) lw $t2, 4($t1) sw $t2, 0($t1) sw $t0, 4($t1) Add a “branch delay slot” the next instruction after a branch is always executed rely on compiler to “fill” the slot with something useful Branch prediction: tentar acertar se o desvio será tomado ou não em loops, desvio é tomado a maior parte das vezes branch history table Superscalar: start more than one instruction in the same cycle

16 Dynamic Scheduling The hardware performs the “scheduling”
hardware tries to find instructions to execute out of order execution is possible speculative execution and dynamic branch prediction All modern processors are very complicated DEC Alpha 21264: 9 stage pipeline, 6 instruction issue PowerPC and Pentium: branch history table Compiler technology important This class has given you the background you need to learn more Video: An Overview of Intel’s Pentium Processor (available from University Video Communications)

17 Comparação de desempenho (p 504)
para monociclo, multiciclo e pipeline gcc: lw (23%), sw (13%), beq (19%), j (2%), resto (43%) pipeline: 2ns (memória e ALU) e 1ns para o registrador (RD ou WR) 1/2 dos lw seguidas por instruções que usam o resultado 1/4 dos beq são errados (1 clock perdido) jumps perdem um ciclo lw: 1 clock sem hazard e 2 clock com hazard; média = 1.5 beq: 1 clock se OK (3/4) e 2 clocks se não OK (1/4); média = 1.25 jump: 2 clocks demais instruções: 1 clock CPI = 1.5*0.23+1*0.13+1* *0.19+2*0.02 = 1.18 clock = 2ns; tempo médio de execução = 2*1.18=2.36ns multiciclo; 4.02*2=8.08ns; monociclo = 8ns pipeline é 3.4 vezes mais rápido do que monociclo ou multiciclo
