Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method resumes an accelerated processing device (APD) wavefront in which a subset of elements have faulted. A restore command for a job including a wavefront is received. A list of context states for the wavefront is read from a memory associated with a APD. An empty shell wavefront is created for restoring the list of context states. A portion of not acknowledged data is masked over a portion of acknowledged data within the restored wavefronts.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method comprising: detecting a fault in a memory; sending a command to restore a partially completed wavefront based on the fault; receiving the command to restore the partially completed wavefront; creating a shell wavefront based on the fault and a list of context states of the partially completed wavefront within the memory; masking the shell wavefront to form a masked wavefront; and restoring the masked wavefront. 2. The…
