However, the costs of providing concurrency between hardware and software transactions in HyTM are still not well understood. In this paper, we propose a general model for HyTM implementations, which captures the ability of hardware transactions to buffer memory accesses. The model allows us to formally quantify and analyze the amount of overhead (instrumentation) caused by the potential presence of software transactions.We prove that (1) it is impossible to build a strictly serializable HyTM implementation that has both uninstrumented reads and writes, even for very weak progress guarantees, and (2) the instrumentation cost incurred by a hardware transaction in any progressive opaque HyTM is linear in the size of the transaction’s data set.We further describe two implementations which exhibit optimal instrumentation costs for two different progress conditions. In sum, this paper proposes the first formal HyTM model and captures for the first time the trade-off between the degree of hardware-software TM concurrency and the amount of instrumentation overhead."}],"publist_id":"6880","status":"public","publisher":"Springer","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"article_processing_charge":"No","author":[{"id":"4A899BFC-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Alistarh, Dan-Adrian","first_name":"Dan-Adrian","last_name":"Alistarh","orcid":"0000-0003-3650-940X"},{"first_name":"Justin","last_name":"Kopinsky","full_name":"Kopinsky, Justin"},{"last_name":"Kuznetsov","first_name":"Petr","full_name":"Kuznetsov, Petr"},{"last_name":"Ravi","first_name":"Srivatsan","full_name":"Ravi, Srivatsan"},{"full_name":"Shavit, Nir","last_name":"Shavit","first_name":"Nir"}],"date_published":"2015-01-01T00:00:00Z","alternative_title":["LNCS"]}
