Abstract
Devices and techniques for triggering early termination of cooperating processes in a processor are described herein. A system includes multiple memory-compute nodes, wherein a memory-compute node comprises: event manager circuitry configured to establish a broadcast channel to receive event messages; and thread manager circuitry configured to organize a plurality of threads to perform portions of a cooperative task, wherein the plurality of threads each monitor the broadcast channel to receive event messages on the broadcast channel, and wherein upon achieving a threshold operation, the thread manager circuitry is to use the event manager circuitry to broadcast, on the broadcast channel, an event message indicating that the cooperative task is complete, causing other threads, in response to receiving the event message, to terminate execution of their respective portions of the cooperative task.
