Qichang's Blog - SPO600

In this last stage of my SPO600 project, Since I don't have results suitable for upstreaming, I am going to wrap up my project results and do some thorough technical analysis of my results. First of all, I am going to summary what I did for my project. (If you want to go over the details, you can see my previous posts.) I picked a software called SSDUP, it is a traffic-aware SSD burst buffer for HPC systems. I noticed that it uses 3 different Murmurhash3 hash functions, the first two hash functions are optimized for x86 platforms and the third hash function is optimized for x64 platforms. I also noticed that it uses 'gcc -std=gnu99' to compile. In order to easier to handler these 3 hash functions, I split them into 3 files and separately testing them on an AArch64 and x86_64 systems. As the professor said my results in stage two is hard to read, I am going to show my results again in a table format. First hash function (MurmurHash3_x86_32), the execution time for -O3...

In the second stage of my SPO600 project, I will need to implement my optimizations to the function in the open source software that I have chosen, which is SSDUP. I will also need to prove that the optimized code produces the same results to the original code. I will also compare the performance of optimized function results between AArch64 and non AArch64 platforms. As I mentioned in my stage one , SSDUP uses 3 different Murmur3 hash function, which is optimized for x86 and x64 platforms. The first function is for 32-bit machines and it produces a 32-bit output. The second function is also for 32-bit machines but it produces a 128-bit output. The third function is for 64-bit machines and it produces a 128-bit output. Each hash function will produce a different hash value. Here is the source code of my file: ----------------------------------------------------------------- #include "murmur3.h" #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include <stdint.h...
