MIPS register convention

Register 1, called $at, is reserved for the assembler, and registers 26-27, called $k0-$k1, are reserved for the operationg system.

Name Register number

Usage Preserved on call?

$zero 0 the constant value 0 n.a.

$v0-$v1

2-3 values for results and expression evalution

no

$a0-$a3

4-7 arguments yes

$t0-$t7

8-15 temporaries no

$s0-$s7

16-23 saved yes

$t8-$t9

24-15 more tempporaries no

$gp 28 global pointer yes

$sp 29 stack pointer yes

$fp 30 frame pointer yes

$ra 31 return address yes

MIPS operands

Name Example Comments

32 registers

$s0-$s7, $t0-$t9, $gp, $fp, $zero, $sp, $ra, $at, Hi, Lo

Fast locations for data, In MIPS, data must be in registers to perform arithmetic. MIPS register $zero always equals 0. Register $at is reserved for the assumbler to handle large constants. Hi and Lo contain the results of multiply and divide.

230 memory words

Memory [0], Memory [4], ..., Memory [4294967292]

Accessed only by data transfer instructions. MIPS uses byte addresses, so sequential words differ by 4. Memory holds data structures, such as arrays, and spilled registers, such as those saved on procedure calls.

How Good is Our Single-Cycle Design?

Instruction access 2 nsRegister read 1 nsALU operation 2 nsData cache access 2 nsRegister write 1 ns Total 8 ns

Single-cycle clock = 125 MHz

Clock rate of 125 MHz not impressive

How does this compare with current processors on the market?

Not bad, where latency is concerned

A 2.5 GHz processor with 20 or so pipeline stages has a latency of about

0.4 ns/cycle 20 cycles = 8 ns

Throughput, however, is much better for the pipelined processor:

Up to 20 times better with single issue

Perhaps up to 100 times better with multiple issue

Exception Handling

Exceptions and interrupts alter the normal program flow

Examples of exceptions (things that can go wrong):

ALU operation leads to overflow (incorrect result is obtained) Opcode field holds a pattern not representing a legal operation Cache error-code checker deems an accessed word invalid Sensor signals a hazardous condition (e.g., overheating)

Exception handler is an OS program that takes care of the problem

Derives correct result of overflowing computation, if possible Invalid operation may be a software-implemented instruction

Interrupts are similar, but usually have external causes (e.g., I/O)

Exception Control States

Strategies for improving performance

1 – Use multiple independent data paths accepting several instructions that are read out at once: multiple-instruction-issue or superscalar 

2 – Overlap execution of several instructions, starting the next instruction before the previous one has run to completion: (super)pipelined

Pipelining Example in a Photocopier

Example

A photocopier with an x-sheet document feeder copies the first sheet in 4 s and each subsequent sheet in 1 s. The copier’s paper path is a 4-stage pipeline with each stage having a latency of 1s. The first sheet goes through all 4 pipeline stages and emerges after 4 s. Each subsequent sheet emerges 1s after the previous sheet. How does the throughput of this photocopier vary with x, assuming that loading the document feeder and removing the copies takes 15 s.

Solution

Each batch of x sheets is copied in 15 + 4 + (x – 1) = 18 + x seconds. A nonpipelined copier would require 4x seconds to copy x sheets. For x > 6, the pipelined version has a performance edge. When x = 50, the pipelining speedup is (4 50) / (18 + 50) = 2.94.

Pipeline Branch Hazards

Software-based solutions

Compiler inserts a “no-op” after every branch (simple, but wasteful)

Branch is redefined to take effect after the instruction that follows it

Branch delay slot(s) are filled with useful instructions via reordering

Hardware-based solutions

Mechanism similar to data hazard detector to flush the pipeline

Constitutes a rudimentary form of branch prediction:Always predict that the branch is not taken, flush if mistaken

More elaborate branch prediction strategies possible

Branch Prediction

Predicting whether a branch will be taken

Always predict that the branch will not be taken

Use program context to decide (backward branch is likely taken, forward branch is likely not taken)

Allow programmer or compiler to supply clues

Decide based on past history (maintain a small history table); to be discussed later

Apply a combination of factors: modern processors use elaborate techniques due to deep pipelines

More advanced technology

More advanced technology

Instructions are broken into micro-ops which are executed out-of-order but retired in-order

Dealing with Exceptions

Exceptions present the same problems as branches

How to handle instructions that are ahead in the pipeline?(let them run to completion and retirement of their

results)

What to do with instructions after the exception point?(flush them out so that they do not affect the state)

Precise versus imprecise exceptions

Precise exceptions hide the effects of pipelining and parallelism by forcing the same state as that of strict sequential execution

(desirable, because exception handling is not complicated)

Imprecise exceptions are messy, but lead to faster hardware(interrupt handler can clean up to offer precise

exception)
