Abstract
Systems, methods, and apparatuses relating to integrated control and data processing in a configurable spatial accelerator are described. In one embodiment, a processor includes a core with a decoder to decode an instruction into a decoded instruction and an execution unit to execute the decoded instruction to perform a first operation; a plurality of processing elements; a network between the plurality of processing elements to transfer values between the plurality of processing elements; and a first processing element of the plurality of processing elements including a first plurality of input queues having a first width coupled to the network, a second plurality of input queues having a second, larger width coupled to the network, at least one first output queue having the first width coupled to the network, at least one second output queue having the second, larger width coupled to the network, a first operation circuitry coupled to the first plurality of input queues having the first width, a second operation circuitry coupled to the second plurality of input queues having the second, larger width, and a configuration register within the first processing element to store a configuration value that causes the first operation circuitry to perform a second operation on values from the first plurality of input queues to create a first resultant value, and when the first resultant value is a first value, the second operation circuitry is to perform a third operation on values from the second plurality of input queues to create a second resultant value and store the second resultant value in the at least one second output queue.
