Huang, JianLi, Zhiyuan2020-09-022020-09-021997https://hdl.handle.net/11299/215319Careful page mapping has been shown in the past to be effective for reducing cache conflicts on both uniprocessor and Uniform Memory Access (UMA) multiprocessors. We extend previous page-mapping schemes to Cache-Coherent Non-Uniform Memory Access (CG-NUMA) multiprocessors. These extensions maintain the program's data-task affinity, which is important to CG-NUMA, while reducing cache set conflicts by carefully selecting the page frames. Using an execution-driven simulator that simulates a CC-NUMA machine with a 2-MB secondary cache and a 16-KB primary cache on each of the 16 four-issue super-scalar processors, we find that a simplistic application of page-coloring performs worse than bin-hopping by 10-45%, while by hashing the page color with part of the MID bits, page-coloring can perform closely to bin-hopping.en-USReport
