Query: Automated Instruction Stream Throughput Prediction for Intel and AMD
  Microarchitectures   An accurate prediction of scheduling and execution of instruction streams is
a necessary prerequisite for predicting the in-core performance behavior of
throughput-bound loop kernels on out-of-order processor architectures. Such
predictions are an indispensable component of analytical performance models,
such as the Roofline and the Execution-Cache-Memory (ECM) model, and allow a
deep understanding of the performance-relevant interactions between hardware
architecture and loop code. We present the Open Source Architecture Code
Analyzer (OSACA), a static analysis tool for predicting the execution time of
sequential loops comprising x86 instructions under the assumption of an
infinite first-level cache and perfect out-of-order scheduling. We show the
process of building a machine model from available documentation and
semi-automatic benchmarking, and carry it out for the latest Intel Skylake and
AMD Zen micro-architectures. To validate the constructed models, we apply them
to several assembly kernels and compare runtime predictions with actual
measurements. Finally we give an outlook on how the method may be generalized
to new architectures.
