Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to operations in a configurable spatial accelerator are described. In one embodiment, a configurable spatial accelerator includes a first processing element that includes a configuration register within the first processing element to store a configuration value that causes the first processing element to perform an operation according to the configuration value, a plurality of input queues, an input controller to control enqueue and dequeue of values into the plurality of input queues according to the configuration value, a plurality of output queues, and an output controller to control enqueue and dequeue of values into the plurality of output queues according to the configuration value.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems for operations in a configurable spatial accelerator

Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to swizzle operations and disable operations in a configurable spatial accelerator (CSA) are described. Certain embodiments herein provide for an encoding system for a specific set of swizzle primitives across a plurality of packed data elements in a CSA. In one embodiment, a CSA includes a plurality of processing elements, a circuit switched interconnect network between the plurality of processing elements, and a configuration register within each processing element to store a configuration value having a first portion that, when set to a first value that indicates a first mode, causes the processing element to pass an input value to operation circuitry of the processing element without modifying the input value, and, when set to a second value that indicates a second mode, causes the processing element to perform a swizzle operation on the input value to form a swizzled input value before sending the swizzled input value to the operation circuitry of the processing element, and a second portion that causes the processing element to perform an operation indicated by the second portion the configuration value on the input value in the first mode and the swizzled input value in the second mode with the operation circuitry.
