What is impressive here is the availability of this feature in - when compared with competing programming environments:

* only has crude runtimes like , and .

* wheels seems equally constrained with supporting plain, e.g., , and .

Not to mention in general with support for e.g. , , and

Whatever the number of applications of specific binaries.

📈 Ah, the old "Calculate Throughput with LLVM's Scheduling Model" routine—because nothing screams weekend fun like diving into compiler internals and performance analysis! 🤓 Just remember, when life gives you throughput, measure it in and don't forget to bring your inverse throughput for extra giggles. 😂

example: ordering of memory writes.
on a strongly ordered system, writes are reordered to program order before commiting (actually writing to D$). On a weakly ordered memory system, writes to different locations can happen in different order

Last week, @lavados and his PhD students went to Germany and visited #µASC and #RuhrSec!

PhD candidate @notimaginary_ presented his paper “An Analysis of HMB-based SSD #Rowhammer”. 📑👇

Wikichip is back ? Wikichip is BACK 🥳

(And I've archived the tables of CPUID immediately, just in case).

One #Prime Day this is probably a good time for me #SRE #DevOps #Reliability #Microarchitecture top tip:

Avoid powers of ten: use prime numbers as your magic constants.

All the beginners use powers of ten: “we can accept 10 connections!” “I have a 10 second timeout!” “Limit to 100 seconds of CPU!”

Congrats you read the Baby Tutorial.

Ready to grow up? Analyse the data then pick the nearest prime:

11 connections
19 second timeout
97 seconds of CPU

It makes it way easier to diagnose issues.

Turns out @cheese is a real 3D person!

Here he sits down with Mike Clark, chief architect of Zen, to talk about AMDs latest microarchitecture, #zen5

AMD Zen 5 Execution Engine Leaked, Features True 512-bit FPU

Giving "Zen 5" a 512-bit FPU meant that AMD also had to scale up the ancillaries [..]. The L1 Data cache has been doubled in bandwidth, and increased in size by 50%. The L1D is now 48 KB in size [..]. FPU MADD latency has been reduced by 1 cycle. Besides the FPU, AMD also increased the number of Integer execution pipes to 10, from 8 on "Zen 4."

I like what my ex-employer is doing with #x86s, nice work. it takes talent and skills to transform #microarchitecture with decades of legacy and move it forward like this.

#Zen4c: #AMD’s Response to #Hyperscale ARM & Intel Atom
#Bergamo, AMD’s upcoming 128-core server part sets new heights in #x86 #CPU performance. At the heart of Bergamo is #Zen 4c, a brand-new CPU core variant of their successful #5nm #Zen4 #microarchitecture that enables the push toward more cores per socket. Zen 4c enables Bergamo to fit 1.33x the number of cores in the same #SP5 socket and 360W TDP, with identical L1 and 1MB L2 private caches to Zen 4.

#Google is making #RISCV as a "Tier 1" architecture for #Android starting in 2023. Currently the RISC-V port can only boot the command prompt but Google has an aggressive roadmap to make the Android Runtime Environment running on RISC-V and then porting the rest of the OS over.

This is indeed big news as RISC-V has grown considerably over the years with lots of industry support. It looks like it might not take a long time before RISC-V goes toe to toe against #ARM in the #microarchitecture competition space.

Who knows, we might even see a #GoogleTensor with RISC-V general purpose cores? They already use RISC-V for the Titan security coprocessor, maybe Google can save on licensing costs by going completely RISC-V over the coming years?

Exciting times ahead for sure!

RISC-V on Android will be a long journey. (Lars Bergstrom)
