MONITORING PROCESSING TIME IN A SHARED PIPELINE

摘要

A pipelined processing device includes: a pipeline controller configured to receive at least one instruction associated with an operation from each of a plurality of subcontrollers, and input the at least one instruction into a pipeline; and a pipeline counter configured to receive an active time value from each of the plurality of subcontrollers, the active time value indicating at least a portion of a time taken to process the at least one instruction, the pipeline controller configured to route the active time value to a shared pipeline storage for performance analysis.
