摘　　要：近年来硬件设计呈现出异构化的趋势,如何有效开发并行程序成为制约异构系统发展的瓶颈之一已成为业界共识.我国自主研制的"神威·太湖之光"超级计算机,采用了国产片上异构众核处理器SW26010,为了降低程序员的编程难度,同时提高软件的移植效率,作者设计并实现了支持国产SW26010众核处理器的OpenCL编译系统.该编译系统实现了OpenCL平台模型、内存模型和执行模型到SW26010众核处理器的映射与优化机制,同时生成性能良好的可执行文件.最后通过实验验证了该编译系统的正确性和有效性,典型OpenCL应用经该编译系统编译后,在中小输入规模下,性能显著优于Intel Xeon Phi,与NVIDIA GPU可比;在较大输入规模下,受限于局存SPM的容量限制,性能略低于NVIDIA GPU.In recent years,with the tremendous development of the integrated circuit technology,it is possible to integrate multiple processor cores on a single chip to accomplish more complex and large computational tasks,and the processor architecture has evolved from single-core to multi-core and many-core.However,there is also a bottleneck in improving performance by means of blindly increasing the cores of same type processors.To further enhance the computing power,there has been a trend towards heterogeneous system architecture,which can provide more powerful computing power and better performance-to-power ratio.It has become the industry consensus that the programming model is one of the bottlenecks restricting the development of heterogeneous systems.The Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer is the world’s first system with a peak performance greater than 100 PFlops,equipped with a homegrown heterogeneous many-core SW26010 CPU that includes both the management processing elements and computing processing elements in one chip.With 260 processing elements in one processor,a single SW26010 provides a peak performance of over 3 TFlops.On the other hand,large-scale scientific and engineering calculations such as earth,ocean,atmospheric system modeling and other critical applications are facing with the big performance challenge.How to fully utilize the computing power of the homegrown heterogeneous platform to achieve high performance of critical applications has important academic and practical value.In order to reduce the difficulty of programming,while improving software portability,we design and implement an OpenCL Compiler for the SW26010 processor.Based on the OpenCL programming framework and the microarchitecture of the homegrown many-core processors,the compiler provides the mapping mechanism from OpenCL platform,memory and execution model to the SW26010 many-core processor and implements thread coarsening,data layout and vectorization optimizations for the homegrown many-core processor.This paper implements the sour
