Abstract
A method for utilization profiling of thread specific execution units and scheduling software on a multi-core processor is provided. To perform the method, the multi-core processor profiles a workload received for execution by a core of the multi-core processor and logs an execution unit sensitivity to an operating system with respect to the workload. Further, the multi-core processor utilizes the execution unit sensitivity for subsequent workload scheduling to minimize sharing of hardware threads on the same core between workloads with similar execution unit sensitivities.
