| 46 | +== Status |
| 47 | + |
| 48 | +This is a proposed extension specification, intended to gather community |
| 49 | +feedback. Interfaces defined in this specification may not be implemented yet |
| 50 | +or may be in a preliminary state. The specification itself may also change in |
| 51 | +incompatible ways before it is finalized. *Shipping software products should not |
| 52 | +rely on APIs defined in this specification.* |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +== Overview |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +This extension introduces kernel properties to specify how or when control and |
| 57 | +data signals can be passed into or out of an FPGA kernel. These properties are |
| 58 | +meaningless on non-FPGA devices and can be ignored on such devices. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +== Specification |
| 61 | + |
| 62 | +=== Feature Test Macro |
| 63 | + |
| 64 | +This extension provides a feature-test macro as described in the core SYCL |
| 65 | +specification section 6.3.3 "Feature test macros". Therefore, an |
| 66 | +implementation supporting this extension must predefine the macro |
| 67 | +`SYCL_EXT_INTEL_FPGA_KERNEL_INTERFACE_PROPERTIES` to one of the values defined |
| 68 | +in the table below. Applications can test for the existence of this macro to |
| 69 | +determine if the implementation supports this feature, or applications can test |
| 70 | +the macro's value to determine which of the extension's APIs the implementation |
| 71 | +supports. |

| 150 | +|=== |
| 151 | +|Property|Description |
| 152 | +|`streaming_interface` |
| 153 | +|The `streaming_interface` property adds the requirement that the kernel must |
| 154 | + have dedicated ports for input / output signals. This applies for both |
| 155 | + control, and kernel argument data signals. The following values are supported: |
| 156 | + |
| 157 | + * `accept_downstream_stall`: Directs the compiler to generate a kernel |
| 158 | + interface that can accept a back-pressure signal. |
| 159 | + |
| 160 | + * `remove_downstream_stall`: Directs the compiler to generate a kernel |
| 161 | + interface that does not accept a back-pressure signal. |
| 162 | + |
| 163 | + If the `streaming_interface` property is not specified, the default behavior is |
| 164 | + equivalent to one of the values listed above, but the choice is implementation |
| 165 | + defined. |
| 166 | + |
| 167 | + The following properties have been provided for convenience: |
| 168 | + `streaming_interface_accept_downstream_stall`, |
| 169 | + `streaming_interface_remove_downstream_stall`. |
| 170 | + |
| 171 | +|`register_map_interface` |
| 172 | +|The `register_map_interface` property adds the requirement that the kernel must |
| 173 | + have its input / output control and kernel argument data signals placed in a |
| 174 | + shared Control and Status Register (CSR) map. The following values are |
| 175 | + supported: |
| 176 | + |
| 177 | + * `wait_for_done_write`: Directs the compiler to generate logic that |
| 178 | + back-pressures the kernel until the kernel is notified that its completion |
| 179 | + has been detected. The kernel will be notified when the register it writes |
| 180 | + its completion signal to is set to 0. |
| 181 | + |
| 182 | + * `do_not_wait_for_done_write`: Directs the compiler to not generate logic that |
| 183 | + would back-pressure the kernel until the kernel is notified of its |
| 184 | + completion being detected. |
| 185 | + |
| 186 | + If the `register_map_interface` property is not specified, the default behavior |
| 187 | + is equivalent to one of the values listed above, but the choice is |
| 188 | + implementation defined. |
| 189 | + |
| 190 | + The following properties have been provided for convenience: |
| 191 | + `register_map_interface_wait_for_done_write`, |
| 192 | + `register_map_interface_do_not_wait_for_done_write`. |
| 193 | + |
| 194 | +|`pipelined` |
| 195 | +|An unsigned integer value is accepted as property parameter. |
| 196 | + |
| 197 | + When the parameter is set to a non zero value, the property directs the |
| 198 | + compiler to pipeline calls to the kernel such that multiple invocations of the |
| 199 | + kernel can be in flight simultaneously. The parameter value also specifies the |
| 200 | + minimum number of cycles between successive invocations of the kernel. Example: |
| 201 | + |
| 202 | + * `pipelined<N>` - The compiler will pipeline multiple kernel invocations such |
| 203 | + that an invocation can be launched every `N` cycles if one is available. |
| 204 | + |
| 205 | + When the parameter is set to `0`, the compiler will not pipeline kernel |
| 206 | + invocations. |
| 207 | + |
| 208 | + If the `pipelined` property is not specified, the default behavior is |
| 209 | + equivalent to a combination of the property parameter values listed above, but |
| 210 | + the choice is implementation defined. |
| 211 | +|=== |
| 212 | + |
| 213 | +Device compilers that do not support this extension may accept and ignore these |
| 214 | + properties. |
| 215 | + |
| 216 | +=== Adding a Property List to a Kernel Launch |
| 217 | + |
| 218 | +A simple example of using this extension to launch a kernel with a streaming |
| 219 | + interface is shown below. |
| 220 | + |
| 221 | +The example assumes that the kernel will not accept a signal that can |
| 222 | +back-pressure it and hence uses the property |
| 223 | +`streaming_interface_remove_downstream_stall`: |
| 224 | + |
| 225 | +```c++ |
| 226 | +using sycl::ext::intel::experimental; |
| 227 | +{ |
| 228 | + ... |
| 229 | + properties kernel_properties{streaming_interface_remove_downstream_stall}; |
| 230 | + |
| 231 | + q.single_task(kernel_properties, [=] { |
| 232 | + *a = *b + *c; |
| 233 | + }).wait(); |
| 234 | +} |
| 235 | +``` |
| 236 | + |
| 237 | +The example below shows how to launch a pipelined kernel with a streaming |
| 238 | +interface, and with a new kernel invocation being launched every 2 cycles. |
| 239 | + |
| 240 | +```c++ |
| 241 | +using sycl::ext::intel::experimental; |
| 242 | +{ |
| 243 | + ... |
| 244 | + properties kernel_properties{ |
| 245 | + streaming_interface_accept_downstream_stall, pipelined<2>}; |
| 246 | + |
| 247 | + q.single_task(kernel_properties, [=] { |
| 248 | + *a = *b + *c; |
| 249 | + }).wait(); |
| 250 | +} |
| 251 | +``` |
| 252 | + |
| 253 | +=== Embedding Properties into a Kernel |
| 254 | + |
| 255 | +The example below shows how the kernel from the previous section could be |
| 256 | +rewritten to leverage an embedded property list: |
| 257 | + |
| 258 | +```c++ |
| 259 | +using sycl::ext::intel::experimental; |
| 260 | +struct KernelFunctor { |
| 261 | + |
| 262 | + KernelFunctor(int* a, int* b, int* c) : a(a), b(b), c(c) {} |
| 263 | + |
| 264 | + void operator()() const { |
| 265 | + *a = *b + *c; |
| 266 | + } |
| 267 | + |
| 268 | + auto get(properties_tag) { |
| 269 | + return properties{streaming_interface_accept_downstream_stall}; |
| 270 | + } |
| 271 | + |
| 272 | + int* a; |
| 273 | + int* b; |
| 274 | + int* c; |
| 275 | +}; |
| 276 | + |
| 277 | +... |
| 278 | + |
| 279 | +q.single_task(KernelFunctor{a, b, c}).wait(); |
| 280 | +``` |
