Description

Network-computing integrated inter-core-particle router and data packet aggregation method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of multi-core-grain integrated circuits, in particular to a network-computing integrated inter-core-grain router and a data packet aggregation method.
Background
The multi-die integrated system integrates some die (bare chips) for realizing specific functions into a system chip with specific functions through an advanced packaging technology, and compared with a traditional single-chip integration mode, the multi-die integrated system has advantages and potentials in aspects of chip performance and power consumption optimization, cost and business mode. The Deep Neural Network (DNN) is deployed to a multi-kernel integrated system to run by means of segmenting a training data set/model. And (3) each kernel processes different subsets in the training data in parallel to train a local copy of the model, summarizes the training result after the processing of each kernel is completed, summarizes the parameters, broadcasts the parameters to each node to update the local model, and then performs the next iteration.
In the above process, the process of transmitting data to the same core by each core is called reduction, and the process of transmitting data to all other cores by one core is called broadcasting. An all reduce is formed together in one reduce process and one broadcast process. The all reduce is actually a communication process, which reduces data in different core grains and distributes the result to each core grain.
In the prior art, even for computationally intensive applications, such as neural network training tasks, the all reduce may become a performance bottleneck. Because the communication bandwidth between core grains in the multi-core grain integrated system is limited, the time consumption of network communication across the core grains is longer than that of internal communication of the core grains, and the deep neural network is in a parameter summarization stage, if the network transmission rate is slow, network congestion is more easily caused, network delay is increased, and the overall performance is reduced, so that the communication performance of the network becomes a performance bottleneck during training.
At present, process optimization methods for all reduce are mainly divided into a software method and a hardware method. Software algorithms such as the document J.Pjesivac-Grbovic.T.Angskun.G.Bosillca.G.E.Fagg.E.Gabriel.and J.J.Dongarra, "Performance analysis of mpi collecting operations; ' Cluster computing. Vol.10.No.2.Pp.127-143.2007 and the document R.Rabenseifner, "Optimization of collective reduction operations," In International Conference on Computational science. Springer.2004.Pp.I-9, but these algorithms increase the amount of communication In the system, resulting In high delay. The hardware method mainly aims at a large-scale parallel system formed by a plurality of computers, and the data is firstly collected before data transmission by integrating an operation unit in a switch so as to reduce the transmission quantity of the data, but the design aims at larger network flow granularity and complex requirements on the function of the operation unit, so that the hardware method cannot be directly transplanted to a multi-core particle integrated system with limited chip area.

Setting the preset threshold period can avoid the following two problems: 1. the data packet is cached in the cache for too long time to wait for aggregation, so that the forwarding efficiency of the data packet is influenced; 2. when only one data packet needing intra-network operation is left in the network and the data packet does not reach the target address yet, the data packet is stored in a network computation cache and can never reach the target address through forwarding.

In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention, and it is obvious that the described embodiments are some, but not all embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments, which can be obtained by a person skilled in the art without making any creative effort based on the embodiments in the present invention, belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
Example 1
The embodiment provides a network-computing integrated inter-core-particle router, which is in a multi-core-particle integrated system consisting of 16 core particles. The network topology among the core grains of the multi-core grain integrated system adopts a mesh network. The overall architecture of the multi-die integrated system is shown in fig. 5.
The design of the micro-architecture layer of the network-integrated core inter-granular router is shown in FIG. 1, and comprises connection relations of components. The network-computing integrated inter-core-particle router has the main function of completing the tasks of forwarding data packets and performing intra-network computation in an inter-core-particle network of a multi-core-particle integrated system. The data packet of the inter-core network comprises a source address, a target address, a network calculation flag bit and a data part, wherein the source address indicates which core particle in the network generates the data packet, the target address indicates which core particle in the network receives the data packet, the network calculation flag bit is used for distinguishing whether the data packet needs to be subjected to intra-network operation, and the data part is specific communication content to be transmitted by the data packet. Forwarding refers to the transmission of a packet from one inter-core router to the next inter-core router according to the destination address of the packet. The intra-network operation means that in the forwarding process of the data packet, data parts of the data packets with the same network operation zone bits are added to obtain an operation result, a new data packet including the operation result is generated to be forwarded, and other data packets participating in the operation are discarded. In the inter-core network shown in fig. 5, 4 inter-core routers are connected to 4 other inter-core routers at most, and the components of the 4 inter-core routers include 5 input buffers, 5 resolvers, 1 intra-network arithmetic unit, 6 route calculation units, 1 arbiter, 1 crossbar switch, and 5 output buffers; the total number of 8 core inter-particle routers is at most connected with other 3 core inter-particle routers, and the components of the 8 core inter-particle routers comprise 4 input caches, 4 resolvers, 1 intra-network operation unit, 5 route calculation units, 1 arbiter, 1 cross switch and 4 output caches; the total number of the 4 core inter-core routers is at most connected with other 2 core inter-core routers, and the components of the 4 core inter-core routers comprise 3 input buffers, 3 resolvers, 1 intra-network operation unit, 4 route calculation units, 1 arbiter, 1 cross switch and 3 output buffers. The specific functions of each component are as follows:
one input cache is connected with the core particles, the other input caches are connected with the output cache of the other inter-core particle router, the input cache receives data packets transmitted by the output cache of the other inter-core particle router or data packets transmitted by the core particles, and caches the data packets by using a queue with the length of 12 bytes to wait for arbitration of the arbiter; the data packet comprises a source address, a target address, a network computation flag bit and a data part.
The arbiter reads the content of the data packet in the input buffer, arbitrates the data packet in the input buffer, and decides which data in the input route calculation unit can be transmitted to the crossbar. The arbiter uses round-robin arbitration to select the packet in each input buffer in a round-robin fashion as the input to the parser.
The analyzer receives the data packet transmitted by the input cache, and transmits the data packet to the route calculation unit or the in-network calculation unit after analysis. The analysis means that whether the data packet needs to be subjected to in-network operation is judged according to the network operation flag bit of the data packet, if the value of the network operation flag bit of the data packet is equal to 0, the data packet does not need to be subjected to in-network operation, and the analyzer transmits the data packet to the route calculation unit; if the value of the network computation flag bit of the data packet is not 0, the data packet is indicated to need to be subjected to the in-network computation, and the analyzer transmits the data packet to an in-network computation unit.
The in-network operation unit comprises a multiplexer, a network calculation cache, a network calculation controller, a comparator and a logic calculation unit, wherein the in-network operation process is as follows: the comparator compares the network computation flag bit of the data packet transmitted by the resolver with the network computation flag bit of the data packet in the network computation cache, and if the two are not equal, the network computation controller transmits the data packet in the network computation cache to the route computation unit; if the two are equal, the network computation controller transmits the data part of the data packet transmitted by the analyzer and the data part of the data packet in the network computation cache to the logic computation unit for addition operation, the operation result is transmitted to the network computation cache to cover the original data part, and meanwhile, the source address, the destination address and the network computation flag bit of the data packet transmitted by the analyzer are transmitted to the network computation cache.
And the route calculation unit receives the data packet from the resolver or the in-network calculation unit, and transmits the data packet and a route calculation result to the cross switch after route calculation. The routing calculation refers to calculating which output port the data packet should be sent to by using a routing algorithm according to the destination address in the data packet. And for the data packet transmitted by the intra-network operation unit, the route calculation unit adopts a reduction tree routing algorithm. The routing operation result is an electrical signal that controls the state of the crossbar switch and indicates to which output buffer the crossbar switch should transmit the incoming data packet.
The crossbar receives the data packet and the routing operation result from the routing operation unit and transmits the data packet to the output cache. The crossbar includes N multiplexers. Each multiplexer is connected with one output buffer, and according to the routing operation result, the crossbar selects the data packets transmitted by 1 routing calculation unit through the multiplexers and transmits the data packets to the corresponding output buffer. The output buffer receives the data packet transmitted by the cross switch, and the data packet is buffered to the input of another core inter-particle router or transmitted by the router connected with the core inter-particle router according to the first-come first-serve principle.
According to the hardware simulation result, under the 45nm process, the occupied area of the core inter-particle router is 70902.3 mu m 2 Wherein the in-network operation unit occupies 3684 μm 2 About 5% of the area of the inter-core router.
Now, suppose there are two data packets, which are respectively denoted as data packet E1 and data packet E2, where the data packet E1 is generated by the core in the first row and the first column in fig. 5 and needs to be sent to the core in the second row and the second column, therefore, the source address is denoted as (1, 1), the destination address is denoted as (2, 2), the computation flag is set to 103, and the data portion is set to 736.5; since the packet E2 is generated by the core in the third row and column of fig. 5 and needs to be transmitted to the core in the second row and column of fig. 5, the source address is (1, 3), the destination address is (2, 2), the computation flag is 103, and the data portion is 367.2. For data packet E1 and data packet E2, the reduction tree routing algorithm works as follows:
