Techniques for graphics processing unit profiling using binary instrumentation

Abstract:

Techniques and apparatus for profiling graphics processing unit (GPU) processes using binary instrumentation are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may include at least one memory comprising instructions and a processor coupled to the at least one memory. The processor may execute the instructions to implement a profiling process to profile a graphics processing unit (GPU) application being executed via a GPU, the profiling process to perform an instrumentation phase to determine an operating process being executed via the GPU and to generate instrumented binary code for the operating process, perform an execution phase to collect profiling data for a command of the operating process, and perform a completion phase for a profiling application executed via the processor to read the profiling data. Other embodiments are described.
