9 Outline Why DTM DTM in commodity CMPs ThermOS Related work Conclusions and Future work 4
10 Why DTM Transistors per unit of area are still increasing (Moore s law) Power density is getting worse as lithography advances (failure of Dennard s law) High temperature impairs performance, energy efficiency, and reliability (Srinivasan et al. in ISCA 04 [3]) 5
11 DTM in commodity CMPs Commodity CMPs exploits DVFS DVFS has chip-wide side effects DVFS with core-wide side effects becomes costly as soon as the core count overcomes 2 (Kim et al. in HPCA 08 [8]) Intel Haswell supports per-core DVFS but integrated voltage regulators may cause high temperature Side effects are especially bad in shared environments (e.g., multi-tenant virtualized infrastructures) 6
12 DTM in commodity CMPs Commodity CMPs exploits DVFS DVFS has chip-wide side effects DVFS with core-wide side effects becomes costly as soon as the core count overcomes 2 (Kim et al. in HPCA 08 [8]) Intel Haswell supports per-core DVFS but integrated voltage regulators may cause high temperature Side effects are especially bad in shared environments (e.g., multi-tenant virtualized infrastructures) software-driven DTM of CMPs 6
13 ThermOS Linear discrete-time modeling of temperature dynamic Commodity solution to measure temperature (i.e., DTSs and MSRs) Formal feedback control for idle cycle determination Idle cycle injection via operating system scheduling 7
14 Modeling of temperature dynamic Modeling approaches either have shortcomings (Wattch, Brooks and Martonosi in HPCA 01 [14]) or require too many information and become impractical (HotSpot, Skadron et al. in TACO 01 [1]) No need to understand the full temperature dynamic: we need the dynamic near the temperature threshold 8
15 Modeling of temperature dynamic temperature increase ( C) w/o ICI time (ms) 9
16 Modeling of temperature dynamic temperature increase ( C) w/o ICI time (ms) 9
17 Modeling of temperature dynamic temperature increase ( C) w/o ICI w/ ICI time (ms) 9
18 Modeling of temperature dynamic temperature increase ( C) w/o ICI w/ ICI time (ms) 9
19 Modeling of temperature dynamic temperature increase ( C) w/o ICI w/ ICI T(k + 1) = a T(k) + b I(k) time (ms) 9
20 Linear discrete-time thermal model: offline estimation Low overhead but requires the model to be conservative Linear regression over 70% of a dataset of over 1.5 million of {temperature_next, temperature, idle} tuples; different regressions yields 95% prediction accuracy over the remaining 30% of the dataset Estimated variances of a and b parameters is almost negligible 10
21 Formal feedback control Proportional-Integral (PI) controller proportional term to capture the dependency from the current error (i.e., expected minus current temperature) integral term to get the dependency from past errors Synthesis of a stable by definition controller Robust to estimation errors of the b parameter 11
22 Formal feedback control idle = previous idle + Proportional-Integral (PI) controller proportional term to capture the dependency from the current error A (i.e., current expected minus temperature) - integral term to get the dependency from past errors Synthesis B previous of a stable by definition error controller Robust to estimation errors of the b parameter 11
23 Formal feedback control I(k) = I(k - 1) + proportional term to capture the dependency from the current error e(k) (i.e., expected minus (1 current - temperature) p) / b - integral term to get the dependency from past errors Proportional-Integral (PI) controller Synthesis of a stable by definition controller e(k - 1) a (1 - p) / b Robust to estimation errors of the b parameter 11
24 Idle cycle injection Do not affect the scheduling of high-priority and vital tasks (e.g., real-time task and kernel tasks) Exploit task scheduling and cpuidle (Pallipadi et al. in Linux Symposium 07 [10]) and is not invasive thanks to the use of the dynamic tick code Alternative solutions are suboptimal from either a software engineering or an effectiveness stand point 12
25 ThermOS _ T + e I% I C A P T - T S 13
26 ThermOS _ T + e I% I C A P T - T S one feedback controller per core 13
27 ThermOS 10 ms of control period _ T + e I% I C A P T - T S one feedback controller per core 13
28 ThermOS max. 80% of control period 10 ms of control period _ T + e I% I C A P T - T S one feedback controller per core 13
29 Evaluation platform 4-core Intel Xeon (Nehalem) From 1.60 GHz to 2.8 GHz C0, C1E (3 us latency), C3 (20 us latency plus other overheads), and C6 (200 us latency plus many other overheads) C-states Ambient temperature about (20 Celsius plus/minus 1) Idle temperature about (28-32 Celsius plus/minus 1 depending on the core) Modified Linux kernel 3.4 PARSEC 2.1 benchmark 14
30 Thermal profile temperature increase ( C) core 0/2 core 1 core time (s) 15
31 Thermal profile temperature increase ( C) temperature is not symmetric in CMPs core 0/2 core 1 core time (s) 15
32 Research questions Can ThermOS constraint the temperature and selectively affect applications in a multiprogrammed workload? How much ThermOS is efficient w.r.t. state of the art solutions? 16
33 Management of multi-programmed workloads 55 temperature increase ( C) core 0/2 core 1 core time (s) 17
34 Management of multi-programmed workloads 55 temperature increase ( C) core 3: 91% in C0, 5% in C1E, 4% in C3 core 2: 91% in C0, 6% in C1E, 3% in C3 core 0: 91% in C0, 7% in C1E, 2% in C3 core 1: 92% in C0, 8% in C1E, 0% in C3 core 0/2 core 1 core time (s) 17
35 State of the art solutions Dimetrodon (Bailis et al. in DAC 11 [4]) VFS Probabilistic feedforward control inside the FreeBSD 7.2 task scheduler We swipe the idle quantum/probability configuration space We statically select the following frequencies (and the associated voltages): 2.79, 2.66, 2.53, 2.39, 2.26, 2.13 GHz 18
36 Efficiency with multi-programmed workloads 100 performance (%) Dimetrodon ThermOS VFS temperature decrease (%) 19
37 Efficiency with multi-programmed workloads 100 performance (%) dynamic power is proportional to C V**2 f as the supply voltage approaches its threshold DVFS will loose most of its efficiency Dimetrodon ThermOS VFS temperature decrease (%) 19
38 Related work Architectural solutions like clock/power gating, NTV/STV designs, conservation cores (Venkatesh et al. in ASPLOS 10 [23]) Micro-architectural solutions like instruction fetch toggling (Brooks and Martonosi in HPCA 01 [14], Skadron et al. in TACO 04 [1]), instruction issue width resizing (Jayaseelan and Mitra in DAC 09 [25]), activity migration (Heo et al. in ISLPED 03 [24]) 20
39 Related work Software solutions Orthogonal approaches (thermal-aware scheduling) Workload placement in data centers (Moore et al. in ATC 05 [26]) Heat and Run (Powell et al. in ASPLOS 04 [20]) ThreshHot (Zhou et al. in TACO 10 [15]) Similar approaches HybDTM (Kumar et al. in DAC 06 [27]) kidled (Google) and PowerClamp (Intel) Dimetrodon (Bailis et al. in DAC 11 [4]) 21
40 Conclusions and Future work ThermOS positively answers our research questions The changes to Linux 3.4 will be available soon 22
41 Questions... a few suggestions Are there overheads beside the injection of idle cycles? Your model and controller are conservative, can you extend ThermOS so as to precisely tailor its behavior to workload? How do you plan on supporting multi-threaded applications? And what about SMT core? Can you comment on energy efficiency? 23
