Presburger Arithmetic in Memory Access Optimization for Data-Parallel Languages

Résumé

Data-parallel languages like OpenCL and CUDA are an important means to exploit the computational power of today's computing devices. We consider the compilation of such languages for CPUs with SIMD instruction sets. To generate efficient code, one wants to statically decide whether or not certain memory operations access consecutive addresses. We formalize the notion of consecutivity and algorithmically reduce the static decision to satisfiability problems in Presburger Arithmetic. We introduce a preprocessing technique on these SMT problems, which makes it feasible to apply an off-the-shelf SMT solver. We show that a prototypical OpenCL CPU driver based on our approach generates more efficient code than any other state-of-the-art driver.
