Abstract

In one embodiment, a method for predicting false sharing includes running code on a plurality of cores and tracking potential false sharing in the code while running the code to produce tracked potential false sharing, where tracking the potential false sharing includes determining whether there is potential false sharing between a first cache line and a second cache line, and where the first cache line is adjacent to the second cache line. The method also includes reporting potential false sharing in accordance with the tracked potential false sharing to produce a false sharing report.
