- Abstract
- Recently, power management schemes are required in manycore systems for
gratifying the chip-level power and thermal constraints. Most research focuses
on optimizing power consumption for parallel applications running on all cores.
In this thesis, we tried to investigate the possibilities of feasible power man-
agement of a manycore systems running several independent operating systems
(OS). Exploiting hardware support such as memory address indirection and
global shared memory, a zero-copy OS migration technique is implemented on
the Linux platform with minimal overhead. In the context of dynamic voltage
and frequency scaling for many-core chips where due to the cost and few practi-
cal reasons, the voltage and frequency can only be controlled for a group of cores
physically grouped into a voltage and/or frequency domain. In this case, Zero-
copy OS migration can be employed to group OSes with similar performance
characteristics into one voltage domain which then allows DVFS algorithm to
better match the voltage and frequency settings to the characteristics of that
domain. From hierarchical power management framework implemented on the
Intel Single-chip Cloud Computer (SCC) running up to 40 independent Linux
instances, We show that our approach, on average, saves the energy consump-
tion by 30% over existing DVFS policies for a wide range of load patterns
with minimal performance degradation. In the conclusion, it can improve the
performance per watt ratio by 27% in most of benchmark situations.
