It also doesn't violate the memory protection features afforded by modern OSes. - - -One class of application that stands to benefit most from HMM is GPU-based machine learning. Libraries like OpenCL and CUDA would be able to get a speed boost from HMM. HMM does this in much the same way as [speedups being done to GPU-based machine learning][11], namely by leaving data in place near the GPU, operating directly on it there, and moving it around as little as possible. - -These kinds of speed-ups for CUDA, Nvidia’s library for GPU-based processing, would only benefit operations on Nvidia GPUs, but those GPUs currently constitute the vast majority of the hardware used to accelerate number crunching. However, OpenCL was devised to write code that could target multiple kinds of hardware—CPUs, GPUs, FPGAs, and so on—so HMM could provide much broader benefits as that hardware matures. - - -There are a few obstacles to getting HMM into a usable state in Linux. First is kernel support, which has been under wraps for quite some time. HMM was first proposed as a Linux kernel patchset [back in 2014][12], with Red Hat and Nvidia both involved as key developers. The amount of work involved wasn’t trivial, but the developers believe code could be submitted for potential inclusion within the next couple of kernel releases. - -The second obstacle is video driver support, which Nvidia has been working on separately. According to Glisse’s notes, AMD GPUs are likely to support HMM as well, so this particular optimization won’t be limited to Nvidia GPUs. AMD has been trying to ramp up its presence in the GPU market, potentially by [merging GPU and CPU processing][13] on the same die. However, the software ecosystem still plainly favors Nvidia; there would need to be a few more vendor-neutral projects like HMM, and OpenCL performance on a par with what CUDA can provide, to make real choice possible. - -The third obstacle is hardware support, since HMM requires the presence of a replayable page faults hardware feature to work. Only Nvidia’s Pascal line of high-end GPUs supports this feature. In a way that’s good news, since it means Nvidia will only need to provide driver support for one piece of hardware—requiring less work on its part—to get HMM up and running. - -Once HMM is in place, there will be pressure on public cloud providers with GPU instances to [support the latest-and-greatest generation of GPU][14]. Not just by swapping old-school Nvidia Kepler cards for bleeding-edge Pascal GPUs; as each succeeding generation of GPU pulls further away from the pack, support optimizations like HMM will provide strategic advantages. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - -via:

整合][13]到同一模具。但是，软件生态系统依然更偏向英伟达；要让可以选择成为现实，还需要更多的像 HMM 这样的中立项目，以及让 OpenCL 提供和 CUDA 相当的性能。 + +第三个阻碍是硬件支持，因为 HMM 的工作需要一项称作可重现页面故障（replayable page faults）的硬件特性。只有英伟达的帕斯卡系列高端 GPU 才支持这项特性。从某些意义上来说这是个好消息，因为这意味着英伟达只需要提供单一硬件的驱动支持就能让 HMM 正常使用，工作量就少了。 + +一旦 HMM 到位，对于提供 GPU 实例的公有云提供商就会面临压力，他们需要[支持最新最好一代的 GPU][14]。这并不是仅仅将老款的开普勒架构显卡换成最新的帕斯卡架构显卡就行了，因为后续的每一代显卡都会更加优秀，像 HMM 这样的支持优化将提供战略优势。
