Segfault with Sparse Optimization #159

Open dhasteer opened 2 years ago

dhasteer commented 2 years ago

Hi there,

I'm trying to get Sparseloop working on a Gemmini-like architecture. Specifically, I'm just trying to get a toy example matmul (described as a convolution) running.

I seem to run into a segfault when I include the mm_sparse_opt.yaml file into my timeloop-model call: Segmentation fault (core dumped). Without the sparse_opt file, however, things run smoothly through Timeloop.

I've tried to describe sparse optimizations in more layers of the memory hierarchy, but that doesn't seem to help. Any ideas what the issue might be here? I greatly appreciate the time and help – let me know if I should provide anything else to make the issue clearer.

Thanks for providing the input files!

There is a bug that's triggered when the storage has a block size larger than 64, I'm working on a fix. I'll update this thread once the issue is fixed.

In the meantime, you can try to set the DRAM block size to be <=32 to perform your studies, e.g., block_size: 32.
