Abstract:

Methods and apparatus to improve shared memory efficiency are described. In an embodiment, a first version of a code to access one or more registers as shared local memory is compiled. A second version of the same code is also compiled to access a cache as the shared local memory. The first version of the code is executed in response to comparison of a work group size of the code with a threshold value. Other embodiments are also disclosed and claimed.
