Method, system and equipment for processing circular task

Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a method, a system and equipment for processing a circular task. The method comprises the following steps: a configuration information register module receives configuration information from a bus, and a circular controller module obtains the configuration information from the configuration information register module; an input FIFO module reads data according to the configuration information of an input FIFO; the input selecting module writes the data in the input FIFO into a specific position of an RC input register set according to the configuration information of a calculation unit; a reconfigurable unit array executes a circular task according to the configuration information of the calculation unit and generates a calculation result, namely the output of an RC; an output selecting module writes the output of the RC into an output FIFO in a specific sequence according to the configuration information of the calculation unit; and the output FIFO module transmits the data according to the configuration information of the output FIFO. The scheme provided by the embodiment of the invention solves the problem of longer executing time of the circular task on a processor, improves the running speed of the circular task and reduces the total running time of an application program.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of system-on-chip, in particular to a method, system and equipment for processing cyclic tasks. Background technique [0002] With the development of computer technology, the amount of data of the application program of the system on chip is increasing, and the running time is also getting longer and longer, and the cyclic tasks in the application program occupy a higher proportion in the total running time of the program. [0003] Currently, there are two main ways to handle recurring tasks in an application: [0004] One is to use the SoC processor to execute the loop task, which needs to expand the loop task and execute each loop serially; for the parallel operation in the loop body, it also needs to be converted into a serial execution sequence. [0005] The other is to execute cyclic tasks in a way that the processor in the system-on-chip and the hardware acceleration module work together. Among them, the proce...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0007] The processor is used to execute cyclic tasks, especially the cyclic tasks with a large amount of calculation. Due to the limitation of the processor's own structure, there is only one calculation unit inside, and the serial execution of each cycle makes the running time very long, which reduces the user's usage. Experience; the processor in the SoC chip and the hardware acceleration module work together to execute cyclic tasks. Since the current hardware acceleration module is a dedicated circuit, it only executes a certain type of cyclic task, and cannot execute other types of cyclic tasks. results in a single restricted execution of cyclic tasks
