Abstract
Various example embodiments of a processing unit fault detection capability are presented. The processing unit fault detection capability may be configured to support detection of faults in processor cores of a processing unit based on arrangement of the processor cores to form a data processing pipeline and monitoring of the processor cores of the data processing pipeline based on monitoring of the data processing pipeline (e.g., based on propagation of heartbeat messages via the data processing pipeline). The processing unit fault detection capability may be configured to support detection of faults in processor cores of various types of processing units, such as central processing units (CPUs), graphics processing units (GPUs), network processing units (NPUs), or the like.
