Offloaded MPI Message Matching: An Optimistic Approach

Paper Title: Offloaded MPI message matching: an optimistic approach Speaker: Jerónimo S. García Authors: Jerónimo S. García, Salvatore Di Girolamo, Sokol Kosta, J.J.

The advent of SmartNICs presents an opportunity to develop offloaded message-matching approaches that leverage this on-NIC programmable accelerator, retaining the flexibility of software-based solutions (e.g., tailoring to application matching behaviors or specialized for non-MPI matching semantics) while freeing up CPU resources. This can be especially beneficial for intensive I/O systems, such as those protected with Post Quantum Cryptography. In this work, we propose a bin-based MPI message approach, Optimistic Tag Matching, explicitly designed for the lightweight, highly parallel architectures typical of on-path SmartNICs. We analyze several MPI applications, showing how most of them present a matching behavior suitable for offloading with the proposed strategy (i.e., low queue depths). Additionally, we show how, in those scenarios, offloaded optimistic matching maintains message rates comparable to traditional on-CPU MPI message matching while freeing up CPU resources.
