摘要
En 中文
Graphics processing unit (GPU) programming environments have matured for general-purpose computing on GPUs. Significant challenges for GPUs include system software support for bounded response times and guaranteed throughput. In recent years, GPU technologies have been applied to real-time systems by extending the operating system modules to support real-time GPU resource management. Unfortunately, such a system extension makes it difficult to maintain the system with version updates because the OS kernel and device drivers must be modified at the source-code level, thereby preventing continuous research and development of GPU technologies for real-time systems. A loadable kernel module (LKM) framework, called Linux Real-Time eXtention with GPUs (Linux-RTXG), for managing real-time GPU resources with Linux without modifying the OS kernel and device drivers is proposed and evaluated experimentally. Linux-RTXG provides mechanisms for interrupt interception and independent synchronization to achieve real-time scheduling and resource reservation capabilities for GPU applications on top of existing device drivers and runtime libraries. Experimental results demonstrate that the overhead incurred by introducing the proposed Linux-RTXG is comparable to that of introducing existing kernel-dependent approaches. In addition, the results demonstrate that multiple GPU applications can be scheduled successfully by Linux-RTXG to meet their priority and quality-of-service requirements in real time.
