Abstract:
A mechanism is described for facilitating dynamic and efficient management of instruction atomicity violations in software programs according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes receiving, at a replay logic from a recording system, a recording of a first software thread running a first macro instruction, and a second software thread running a second macro instruction. The first software thread and the second software thread are executed by a first core and a second core, respectively, of a processor at a computing device. The recording system may record interleavings between the first and second macro instructions. The method includes correctly replaying the recording of the interleavings of the first and second macro instructions precisely as they occurred. The correctly replaying may include replaying a local memory state of the first and second macro instructions and a global memory state of the first and second software threads.
Abstract:
Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed to manage concurrent predicate expressions. An example method discloses inserting a first condition hook into a first thread, the first condition hook associated with a first condition, inserting a second condition hook into a second thread, the second condition hook associated with a second condition, preventing the second thread from executing until the first condition is satisfied, and identifying a concurrency violation when the second condition is satisfied.
