Workload resource reservation in a reconfigurable dataflow architecture

A method comprising:

• receiving a first workload for execution on a reconfigurable dataflow unit (RDU) system, including receiving a first workload reservation specifying a first RDU resource included in the RDU system and selected from:
• an RDU tile including multiple pattern compute units (PCUs), a local memory at a host, a high-bandwidth memory (HBM), a dual data rate (DDR) memory module pair, or a peripheral port;
• determining an access condition for the first RDU resource selected from:
• shared accessibility, exclusive accessibility, or allowed substitution;
• and
• initiating execution of the first workload according to the first workload reservation and the access condition,
• wherein the RDU system includes a local interconnect and is configured to receive workloads for execution, including the first workload, from the host via a system interconnect coupled to the local interconnect.

Tangible computer-readable media comprising instructions executable by a computer system to:

• receive a first workload for execution on a reconfigurable dataflow unit (RDU) system, including receiving a first workload reservation specifying a first RDU resource included in the RDU system and selected from:

• determine an access condition for the first RDU resource selected from:
• shared accessibility, exclusive accessibility, or allowed substitution;
• and
• initiate execution of the first workload according to the first workload reservation and the access condition, wherein the RDU system includes a local interconnect and is configured to receive workloads for execution, including the first workload, from the host via a system interconnect coupled to the local interconnect.
