This PLDI 2025 paper proposes a few extensions to C to make it much easier to compile code for spatial architectures. I think the ideas could apply to HLS as well. Here is my summary: https://danglingpointers.substack.com/

Yeah, I would probably say the same. It is a bit strange to document this as part of the architecture (rather than leaving it open as a potential future microarchitectural optimization). Is there some advantage an OS has knowing that the

The article quotes the Intel docs: "Instruction ordering: Instructions following a SYSCALL may be fetched from memory before earlier instructions complete execution, but they will not execute (even speculatively) until all instructions

I wonder how tricks that rely on compiler extensions (e.g., computed goto, musttail, and preserve_none) compare against the weval transform? The weval transform involves a small language extension backed by a larger change to the compiler

"Favor the one with lower register pressure" - my mental model says that register pressure is not a property of a single instruction, but rather depends on when successor instructions will be scheduled. For example, if an instruct

Some folks use the term "state element" to describe the set of things which hold state between clock cycles. Memories (e.g., SRAM) and registers are both examples of state elements. I took the "You don't think about mem
