Bufferless communication for redundant multithreading using register permutation
Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing bufferless communication for redundant multithreading applications using register permutation are disclosed. In one embodiment, a system includes a parallel processing unit, a register file, and a scheduler. The scheduler is configured to cause execution of a plurality of threads to be performed in lockstep on the parallel processing unit. The plurality of threads include a first thread and a second thread executing on adjacent first and second lanes, respectively, of the parallel processing unit. The second thread is configured to perform a register permute operation from a first register location to a second register location in a first instruction cycle, with the second register location associated with the second processing lane. The second thread is configured to read from the second register location in a second instruction cycle, wherein the first and second instruction cycles are successive instruction cycles.
