对于图形处理器(Graphics Processing Unit，简称GPU)等电子设备，常常会产生交换电子设备的内存中的数据的需求。例如，在高度并行线性系统软件包(Highly Parallel Linear system package，简称HPL)中，通常需要搜索主分量，并交换当前行和具有主分量的行；或者在多核系统中，需要在每个核上做子矩阵操作，然后交换上述核的子矩阵。
在一些场景中，在进行数据交换时，常常需要引入新的内核，这样容易造成大量功耗。

具体实施方式
在介绍本申请实施例之前，先对一些场景下的技术方案进行简要说明：
在一些场景中的GPU进行直接内存存取(Direct Memory Access，简称DMA)操作的硬件流程图，GPU包括环形缓冲单元、源读地址逻辑生成电路、目的写地址逻辑生成电路、GDS接口、高速缓存接口、全局数据共享(Global Data Share，简称GDS)存储器、高速缓存(Cache)存储器、设备内存(Device memory)、设备内存控制器。源读地址逻辑生成电路分别与GDS接口以及高速缓存接口连接，目的写地址逻辑生成电路分别与GDS接口108以及高速缓存接口连接。GDS存储器通过GDS接口与环形缓冲单元连接，高速缓存存储器通过多个高速缓存路由与高速缓存接口连接，高速缓存接口也与环形缓冲单元连接。高速缓存存储器还通过设备内存控制器与设备内存连接。
在一些场景中环形缓冲单元(ring buffer)配置成缓存数据的缓存单元，环形缓冲单元可以由静态随机存取存储器(Static Random-Access Memory，简称SRAM)实现。
GPU可以利用源读地址逻辑生成电路生成源地址读请求，源地址读请求可以从源存储单元读取数据，从源存储单元获取到的数据可被写入环形缓冲单元。环形缓冲单元中具有与源地址读请求对应的指针，该指针指向环形缓冲单元中待被写入数据的空白存储空间，当空白存储空间被写入数据后，更新该指针指向的位置，使该指针指向新的待被写入数据的空白存储空间。源存储单元可以为GDS存储器、高速缓存存储器、设备内存中的任意一个。
GPU可以利用目的写地址逻辑生成电路生成目的地址写请求，该目的地址写请求可以从环形缓冲单元读取数据，从环形缓冲单元读取到的数据被写入目的存储单元。环形缓冲单元中还具有与目的地址写请求对应的指针，该指针指向待被从环形缓冲单元读取的数据对应的存储空间，当相应的数据被读取后，更新该指针指向的位置，使该指针指向新的待被从环形缓冲单元读取的数据对应的存储空间。其中，若目的地址写请求对应的指针指向的位置和源地址读请求对应的指针指向的位置相同，表示环形缓冲单元为空。目的存储单元也可以为GDS存储器、高速缓存存储器、设备内存中的任意一个。
可见，一些场景中，上述的硬件流程只能实现数据的传输，若要实现数据交换，需要引入新的内核，会造成功耗变高。
在本申请实施例中，通过扩展命令处理器(Command processor)中的DMA引擎实现数据交换，在DMA_DATA命令包中增加交换模式(swap mode)，从而使用DMA_DATA_SWAP实现数据交换。
具体地，可以在DMA_DATA命令包的DW0中加入新字段[31:31]：
SWAP_MODE.
0＝DMA_MODE:DMA-Copy data from source to destination.
1＝SWAP_MODE:swap data between source and destination.
上述新字段定义了DMA SWAP操作的SWAP模式的位，SWAP模式的位设置为0，表示按照DMA方式将数据从源位置复制到目的位置；SWAP模式的位设置为1，表示交换源位置与目的位置各自对应的数据。
下面将结合本申请实施例中的附图，对本申请实施例中的技术方案进行描述。
请参见图2，图2示出了本申请实施例提供的数据交换方法，该方法可以由图1示出的GPU执行，GPU包括环形缓冲单元102、源读地址逻辑生成电路104、源写地址逻辑生成电路105、目的写地址逻辑生成电路106、目的读地址逻辑生成电路107、GDS接口108、高速缓存接口110、GDS存储器112、多个高速缓存路由114、高速缓存存储器116、设备内存控制器118以及设备内存120。
环形缓冲单元102包括第一缓冲单元1021和第二缓冲单元1022，第一缓冲单元1021分别与 GDS接口108和高速缓存接口110连接，第二缓冲单元1022分别与GDS接口108和高速缓存接口110连接。源读地址逻辑生成电路104分别与GDS接口108和高速缓存接口110连接，源写地址逻辑生成电路105与第二缓冲单元1022连接，目的写地址逻辑生成电路106与第一缓冲单元1021连接，目的读地址逻辑生成电路107分别与GDS接口108和高速缓存接口110连接。GDS接口108还与GDS存储器112连接，高速缓存接口110还通过多个高速缓存路由114与高速缓存存储器116连接。高速缓存存储器116还与设备内存控制器118连接，设备内存控制器118还与设备内存120连接。
在一些可能的实现方式中，不妨设环形缓冲单元102的存储空间为64*512bit，第一缓冲单元1021与第二缓冲单元1022的存储空间可以相等，且均等于环形缓冲单元102的一半(例如，第一缓冲单元1021与第二缓冲单元1022的存储空间可以均为32*512bit)，从而可以较大程度地利用环形缓冲单元102。应当理解，第一缓冲单元1021的存储空间可以与第二缓冲单元1022相等，也可以不相等，第一缓冲单元1021与第二缓冲单元1022的存储空间的具体数值不应该理解为是对本申请的限制。
GPU配置成通过环形缓冲单元102的第一缓冲单元1021和第二缓冲单元1022交换源存储单元与目的存储单元的数据。该方法具体包括如下步骤S110至步骤S150：
步骤S110，生成至少一个源地址读请求，并向所述源存储单元发送所述至少一个源地址读请求，以便所述源存储单元将每个源地址读请求对应的源数据返回给所述第一缓冲单元1021。
至少一个源地址读请求中的每个源地址读请求均包括对应的源地址，每个源地址均存储有对应的源数据，每个源地址均位于源存储单元。
源地址读请求可以由GPU通过源读地址逻辑生成电路104生成。GPU可以利用源读地址逻辑生成电路104把生成的每个源地址读请求发送给源存储单元。对于每个源地址读请求，源存储单元根据源地址查找到对应的源数据，并把源数据返回给第一缓冲单元1021。
步骤S120，生成至少一个目的地址读请求，并向所述目的存储单元发送所述至少一个目的地址读请求，以便所述目的存储单元将每个目的地址读请求对应的目的数据返回给所述第二缓冲单元1022。
至少一个目的地址读请求中的每个目的地址读请求均包括对应的目的地址，每个目的地址均存储有对应的目的数据，每个目的地址均位于目的存储单元。
目的地址读请求可以由GPU通过目的读地址逻辑生成电路107生成。GPU可以利用目的读地址逻辑生成电路107把生成的每个目的地址读请求发送给目的存储单元。对于每个目的地址读请求，目的存储单元根据目的地址查找到对应的目的数据，并把目的数据返回给第二缓存单元。
步骤S130，确定所述源数据能传输到所述第一缓冲单元1021，且所述目的数据能传输到所述 第二缓冲单元1022。
GPU确定全部源数据均能够传输到第一缓冲单元1021，GPU确定全部目的数据均能够传输到第二缓冲单元1022。确定全部源数据均能够传输到第一缓冲单元1021是为了避免在源数据尚未完全传输到第一缓冲单元1021的情况下目的数据就被发送到了源存储单元，导致尚未被传输的源数据被目的数据覆盖。同样的，确定全部目的数据均能够传输到第二缓冲单元1022是为了避免在目的数据尚未完全传输到第二缓冲单元1022的情况下源数据就被发送到了目的存储单元，导致尚未被传输的目的数据被源数据覆盖。
在不同的运行模式下，确定源数据能传输到第一缓冲单元1021、目的数据能传输到第二缓冲单元1022的条件不同。
在一些可能的实现方式中，数据交换方法可以在有序模式(in-order mode)下进行，则步骤S130可以为：确定所述至少一个源地址读请求均向所述源存储单元发送，且所述至少一个目的地址读请求均向所述目的存储单元发送。
数据交换方法在有序模式下进行，由于读请求先发送，写请求后发送，读请求所请求的数据在写请求发送前，均已经在返回环形缓冲单元102的途中。因此，所述源读地址逻辑生成电路104确定至少一个源地址读请求均向所述源存储单元发送，即可确定上述的每个源地址读请求对应的源数据能够被传输回第一缓冲单元1021；目的读地址逻辑生成电路107确定至少一个目的地址读请求均向目的存储单元发送，即可确定上述的每个目的地址读请求对应的目的数据能够被传输回第二缓冲单元1022，从而避免数据尚未传输到缓冲单元时就被对端的发送过来的数据覆盖掉。
在一些可能的实现方式中，数据交换方法可以在无序模式(out-of-order mode)下进行，则步骤S130可以为：确定所述源数据均传输至所述第一缓冲单元1021，且所述目的数据均传输至所述第二缓冲单元1022。
数据交换方法在无序模式下进行，读请求与写请求没有顺序的限制，故在源数据均传输至第一缓冲单元1021，且目的数据均传输至第二缓冲单元1022后，才能够确定源数据能传输到所述第一缓冲单元1021，且所述目的数据能传输到所述第二缓冲单元1022；从而避免数据尚未传输到缓冲单元时就被对端的发送过来的数据覆盖掉。
步骤S140，根据所述环形缓冲单元102收到的数据，生成对应的地址写请求。
步骤S150，利用所述地址写请求，将对应的所述数据向对应的存储单元的所述去向地址发送。
其中，所述地址写请求包括对应的数据的去向地址，所述第一缓冲单元1021收到的数据所对应的去向地址位于所述目的存储单元，所述第二缓冲单元1022收到的数据所对应的去向地址位于所述源存储单元。
在确定源数据均能够被传输到第一缓冲单元1021，且目的数据均能够被传输到第二缓冲单元 1022之后。对第一缓冲单元1021收到的源数据生成对应的地址写请求，从而将第一缓冲单元1021收到的源数据发送到目的存储单元；对第二缓冲单元1022收到的目的数据也生成对应的地址写请求，从而将第二缓冲单元1022收到的目的数据发送到源存储单元。本申请利用环形缓冲单元102便实现了源存储单元与目的存储单元的数据交换，与现有技术相比，减小了功耗，节约了成本。
在一些可能的实现方式中，请参见图3，步骤S140至步骤S150分别对应于如下步骤S141至步骤S151：
步骤S141，根据所述第一缓冲单元1021收到的源数据，生成对应的目的地址写请求。
目的地址写请求包括对应的源数据的去向地址，该去向地址位于目的存储单元。在一些可能的实现方式中，每当第一缓冲单元1021收到一次源数据，目的写地址逻辑生成电路106便可以生成对应的目的地址写请求，从而可以将第一缓冲单元1021中的源数据及时的传输给目的存储单元。
步骤S151，利用所述目的地址写请求，将对应的所述源数据向所述目的存储单元的所述去向地址发送。
GPU执行目的地址写请求，通过第一缓冲单元1021将源数据向目的存储单元的去向地址发送，以将该源数据写入目的存储单元。
对于第一缓冲单元1021收到的源数据，GPU可以生成目的地址写请求，目的地址写请求包括该源数据的去向地址，该去向地址位于目的存储单元，从而实现将第一缓冲单元1021收到的源数据写入目的存储单元。第一缓冲单元1021收到的源数据来自于源存储单元，由此，利用第一缓冲单元1021实现了数据从源存储单元向目的存储单元的转移过程。
在一些可能的实现方式中，请参见图4，步骤S140至步骤S150分别对应于如下步骤S241至步骤S251：
步骤S241，根据所述第二缓冲单元1022收到的目的数据，生成对应的源地址写请求。
源地址写请求包括对应的目的数据的去向地址，该去向地址位于源存储单元。在一些可能的实现方式中，每当第二缓冲单元1022收到一次目的数据，源写地址逻辑生成电路105便会生成对应的源地址写请求，从而可以将第二缓冲单元1022中的目的数据及时的传输给源存储单元。
步骤S251，利用所述源地址写请求，将对应的所述目的数据向所述源存储单元的所述去向地址发送。
GPU执行源地址写请求，通过第二缓冲单元1022将目的数据向源存储单元的去向地址发送，以将该目的数据写入源存储单元。
对于第二缓冲单元1022收到的目的数据，GPU可以生成源地址写请求，源地址写请求包括该目的数据的去向地址，该去向地址位于源存储单元，从而实现将第二缓冲单元1022收到的目的数据写入源存储单元。第二缓冲单元1022收到的目的数据来自于目的存储单元，由此，利用第二缓 冲单元1022实现了数据从目的存储单元向源存储单元的转移过程。
在一种具体实施方式中，源存储单元向所述第一缓冲单元1021发送源数据的通信接口与所述目的存储单元向所述第二缓冲单元1022发送目的数据的通信接口相同，则步骤S120可以在步骤S110之后执行。
不妨设源存储单元向第一缓冲单元1021发送源数据的通信接口以及目的存储单元向第二缓冲单元1022发送目的数据的通信接口均为图1示出的高速缓存接口110。
在一些可能的实现方式中，源存储单元和目的存储单元可以为均与高速缓存接口110连接的不同存储单元，例如，源存储单元可以为高速缓存存储器116，目的存储单元可以为设备内存120；可以理解，源存储单元与目的存储单元也可以互换，即源存储单元可以为设备内存120，目的存储单元可以为高速缓存存储器116。本申请实施例提供的数据交换方法的目标在于实现两处数据的交换，因此，对于欲交换的两处数据分别所在的载体，可以随机将其中一个载体作为源存储单元，另一个载体自然成为目的存储单元。
在一些可能的实现方式中，源存储单元和目的存储单元也可以为同一存储单元，即数据交换可以是实现同一存储单元的不同位置的数据的交换，例如源存储单元和目的存储单元均可以为高速缓存存储器116。
向目的存储单元发送目的地址读请求的目的在于使目的存储单元返回目的数据，同理，向源存储单元发送源地址读请求的目的在于使源存储单元返回源数据。在源存储单元传输数据的通信接口与目的存储单元传输数据的通信接口相同的情况下，若目的存储单元返回目的数据与源存储单元返回源数据并行进行，则会交织占用同一通信接口，从而导致传输效率变低，因此，目的存储单元返回目的数据与源存储单元返回源数据不在同一时间段进行，利于提高传输效率。
为了便于描述，不妨以源存储单元是设备内存120，目的存储单元是高速缓存存储器116为例，对通信接口相同(均为高速缓存接口110)的情况进行说明：
源读地址逻辑生成电路104生成多个源地址读请求，GPU将多个源地址读请求均发送给源存储单元：设备内存120。设备内存120对于每个源地址读请求，均可以获取到对应的源数据，并将源数据经高速缓存接口110发送给第一缓冲单元1021。
对于有序模式，GPU将多个源地址读请求均发送给设备内存120后，便可以确定源数据能够传输到第一缓存单元；对于无序模式，则需要在第一缓存单元接收到多个源地址读请求分别对应的源数据，才可以确定源数据能够传输到第一缓存单元。
目的读地址逻辑生成电路107生成多个目的地址读请求，GPU将多个目的地址读请求均发送给目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116。高速缓存存储器116对于每个目的地址读请求，均可以获取到对应的目的数据，并将目的数据经高速缓存接口110发送给第二缓冲单元1022。
对于有序模式，GPU将多个目的地址读请求均发送给高速缓存存储器116后，便可以确定目的数据能够传输到第二缓存单元；对于无序模式，则需要在第二缓存单元接收到多个目的地址读请求分别对应的目的数据，才可以确定目的数据能够传输到第二缓存单元。
在确定目的数据能够传输到第二缓存单元后，每当一个源数据被写入第一缓存单元，GPU便可以利用目的写地址逻辑生成电路106生成对应的目的地址写请求，该目的地址写请求中包括位于目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116的去向地址，从而将来自于源存储单元：设备内存120的源数据经第一缓存单元缓存，传输至目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116。
在一些可能的实现方式中，在确定至少一个目的数据能传输到所述第二缓冲单元时，GPU利用目的写地址逻辑生成电路106生成对应的目的地址写请求可以是：每侦测到所述第一缓冲单元中被写入一条源数据，根据已写入所述第二缓冲单元的一个目的数据所对应的所述目的地址读请求，生成被写入的所述源数据所对应的所述目的地址写请求。如此，可以保障源数据的写入目的存储单元的及时性。显然，即便存在至少一条目的数据未被写入第二缓冲单元，也能避免未写入第二缓冲单元的目的数据被覆盖。
同理，在确定至少一个源数据能传输到所述第一缓冲单元，生成对应的源地址写请求的步骤包括：每侦测到所述第二缓冲单元中被写入一个目的数据，根据已写入所述第一缓冲单元的一个所述源数据所对应的所述源地址读请求，生成被写入的所述目的数据所对应的所述源地址写请求。
在确定源数据能够传输到第一缓存单元后，每当一个目的数据被写入第二缓存单元，GPU便可以利用源写地址逻辑生成电路105生成对应的源地址写请求，该源地址写请求中包括位于源存储单元：设备内存120的去向地址，从而将来自于目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116的源数据经第二缓存单元缓存，传输至源存储单元：设备内存120。
在另一种具体实现方式中，所述源存储单元向所述第一缓冲单元1021发送源数据的通信接口与所述目的存储单元向所述第二缓冲单元1022发送目的数据的通信接口不相同，则步骤S120可以与步骤S110并行执行。
不妨设源存储单元向第一缓冲单元1021发送源数据的通信接口为图1示出的GDS接口108，目的存储单元向第二缓冲单元1022发送目的数据的通信接口为高速缓存接口110。
在源存储单元传输数据的通信接口与目的存储单元传输数据的通信接口不相同的情况下，目的存储单元返回目的数据与源存储单元返回源数据并行进行互不干扰，都能维持较高的传输速率，从而提高了数据传输的效率。
为了便于描述，不妨以源存储单元是GDS存储器112，目的存储单元是高速缓存存储器116为例，对通信接口不同的情况进行说明：
源读地址逻辑生成电路104生成多个源地址读请求，GPU将多个源地址读请求均发送给源存储单元：GDS存储器112。GDS存储器112对于每个源地址读请求，均可以获取到对应的源数据，并将源数据经GDS接口108发送给第一缓冲单元1021。
与此同时，目的读地址逻辑生成电路107生成多个目的地址读请求，GPU将多个目的地址读请求均发送给目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116。高速缓存存储器116对于每个目的地址读请求，均可以获取到对应的目的数据，并将目的数据经高速缓存接口110发送给第二缓冲单元1022。
在确定目的数据能够传输到第二缓存单元，且确定源数据能够传输到第一缓存单元后，每当一个源数据被写入第一缓存单元，GPU便可以利用目的写地址逻辑生成电路106生成对应的目的地址写请求，该目的地址写请求中包括位于目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116的去向地址，从而将来自于源存储单元：GDS存储器112的源数据经第一缓存单元缓存，传输至目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116。
与此同时，每当一个目的数据被写入第二缓存单元，GPU便可以利用源写地址逻辑生成电路105生成对应的源地址写请求，该源地址写请求中包括位于源存储单元：GDS存储器112的去向地址，从而将来自于目的存储单元：高速缓存存储器116的源数据经第二缓存单元缓存，传输至源存储单元：GDS存储器112。
