英文摘要Sampling-based methods, such as SimPoint, are widely used for efficient pre-silicon mu Arch evaluations, where the costs are the number of simulation points multiplied by the number of evaluated mu Arch designs. However, these costs keep growing with an increasing number of simulation points and expanding mu Arch design space. Although techniques have been developed to accelerate the mu Arch design space exploration, less attention has been given to further reducing the simulation budget of each mu Arch evaluation. Common strategies like reducing simulation coverage or sampling fewer simulation points typically compromise estimation accuracy. Therefore, further reducing the simulation budget without compromising estimation accuracy remains a critical research problem. In this work, we propose SnsBooster to enhance sampling-based mu Arch evaluation efficiency, based on two insights: (a) large portions of simulation points' performance changes are typically insensitive to the evaluated mu Arch changes, and (b) simulation points' performance sensitivities under specific mu Arch change correlate with their inherent characteristics. By online building a mu Arch-specific performance sensitivity classifier via progressive simulation and continuous validation, SnsBooster can identify and selectively evaluate only performance-sensitive points, thus reducing the simulation budget without compromising estimation accuracy. When applied across various mu Arch changes, SnsBooster achieves an average simulation budget reduction of 39.04% with an accuracy loss of only 0.14%, compared to simulating all the sampled points. Under the same accuracy loss, SnsBooster's simulation budgets are only 64.73% and 65.60% of those required by methods of reducing simulation coverage or sampling fewer points. Besides, under identical simulation budgets, the average accuracy losses of these methods are 1.41% and 1.23%, which is substantially higher than that of SnsBooster.
