A processor executes a program that produces a variable-length output. Before execution, the system determines the maximum possible output size and sets a counter maximum accordingly, with the counter initialized to zero. During execution, the counter is conditionally incremented each time a portion of the input satisfies a predicate, and the updated counter value is communicated to consumers within the executing program. After the program finishes processing the input, the final counter value is communicated as the definitive output size to downstream consumers. The counter may reside in a read context or write context of a memory unit whose scratchpad supports overlapping read and write operations. The maximum possible output size may be determined at compile time.
A computer-implemented method of executing, on a processor, a program that produces a variable-length output, the method comprising:
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause the processor to perform operations comprising:
A system comprising:
