The technology disclosed relates to inter-node execution of configuration files on reconfigurable processors using network interface controller (NIC) buffers. In particular, the technology disclosed relates to a runtime logic that is configured to execute configuration files that define applications and application data for applications using a first reconfigurable processor connected to a first host, and a second reconfigurable processor connected to a second host. The first reconfigurable processor is configured to push input data for the applications in a first plurality of buffers. The first host is configured to cause a first network interface controller (NIC) to stream the input data to a second plurality of buffers from the first plurality of buffers. The second host is configured to cause a second NIC to stream the input data to the second reconfigurable processor from the second plurality of buffers.

Inter-node execution of configuration files on reconfigurable processors using network interface controller (NIC) buffers

The technology disclosed relates to runtime execution of functions across reconfigurable processor. In particular, the technology disclosed relates to a runtime logic that is configured to execute a first set of functions in a plurality of functions and/or data therefor on a first reconfigurable processor, and a second set of functions in the plurality of functions and/or data therefor on additional reconfigurable processors. Functions in the second set of functions and/or the data therefor are transmitted to the additional reconfigurable processors using one or more of a first reconfigurable processor-to-additional reconfigurable processors buffers, and results of executing the functions and/or the data therefor on the additional reconfigurable processors are transmitted to the first reconfigurable processor using one or more of additional reconfigurable processors-to-first reconfigurable processor buffers.

Runtime execution of functions across reconfigurable processor

The technology disclosed relates to inter-node execution of configuration files on reconfigurable processors using smart network interface controller (SmartNIC) buffers. In particular, the technology disclosed relates to a runtime logic that is configured to execute configuration files that define applications and process application data for applications using a first reconfigurable processor on a first node, and a second host processor on a second node. The execution includes streaming configuration data in the configuration files and the application data between the first reconfigurable processor and the second host processor using one or more SmartNIC buffers.

Inter-processor execution of configuration files on reconfigurable processors using smart network interface controller (SmartNIC) buffers

The technology disclosed relates to runtime execution of configuration files on reconfigurable processors with varying configuration granularity. In particular, the technology disclosed relates to a runtime logic that is configured to receive a set of configuration files for an application, and load and execute a first subset of configuration files in the set of configuration files and associated application data on a first reconfigurable processor. The first reconfigurable processor has a first level of configurable granularity. The runtime logic is further configured to load and execute a second subset of configuration files in the set of configuration files and associated application data on a second reconfigurable processor. The second reconfigurable processor has a second level of configurable granularity that is different from the first level of configurable granularity.

Runtime execution of configuration files on reconfigurable processors with varying configuration granularity

The technology disclosed relates to buffer-based inter-node streaming of configuration data over a network fabric. In particular, the technology disclosed relates to a runtime processor configured to load and execute a first subset of configuration files in a set of configuration files on a first reconfigurable processor operatively coupled to a first processing node, load and execute a second subset of configuration files in the set of configuration files on a second reconfigurable processor operatively coupled to a second processing node, and use a first plurality of buffers operatively coupled to the first processing node, and a second plurality of buffers operatively coupled to the second processing node to stream data between the first reconfigurable processor and the second reconfigurable processor to load and execute the first subset of configuration files and the second subset of configuration files.

Inter-node buffer-based streaming for reconfigurable processor-as-a-service (RPaaS)

A data processing system comprises a plurality of reconfigurable processors including a first reconfigurable processor and additional reconfigurable processors, a plurality of buffers in a shared memory accessible to the first reconfigurable processor and the additional reconfigurable processors, and runtime logic configured to execute one or more configuration files for applications using the first reconfigurable processor and the additional reconfigurable processors. Execution of the configuration files includes receiving data from the first reconfigurable processor and providing the data to at least one of the additional reconfigurable processors, and receiving data from the at least one of the additional reconfigurable processors and providing the data to the first reconfigurable processor.
