UH compiler effort at the University of Houston, worked on by the remainings authors of this paper. If N is the number of desired threads in the team, it will create N-1 worker threads and initialize internal variables to record such things as the number of threads and the default scheduling method related to the thread team. Like most other open source ones, it relies on the Pthread API to manipulate underlying threads as well as to achieve portability. Most of these modules are derived from the corresponding original Open64 module. This smaller set of features is named MP in Open64 and they can also be generated by the Auto Parallelization module in LNO, enabling Open64 to support both automatic and manual parallelization in a common framework. The compiler-generated nested microtask containing its work is named ompregion main1 , based on the code segment within the scope of the parallel directive in main.

OpenUH Compiler
opemuh The OpenUH compiler described in this paper uses this design, exploits improvements to Open64 from several sources and relies on an enhanced version of the Tsinghua runtime library to support the translation process.
Since only one level of parallelism is implemented, a parallel region within another parallel region is serialized in this olenuh. We are using OpenUH to explore language features that permit subsets opdnuh a team of threads to execute code within a parallel region, which would enable several subteams to execute concurrently [21]. The translation used in OpenUH is different from the standard outlining approach. After prelowering, the remaining constructs are lowered. In it, the compiler generates a microtask to encapsulate the opemuh lexically contained within a parallel region, and the microtask is nested we also refer to it as inlined, although this is not the standard meaning of the term into the original function containing that parallel region.
For a non-Itanium platform, the whirl2c or whirl2f translator will be invoked instead; in this case, code represented by Mid WHIRL is translated back to compilable, multithreaded C or Fortran code with OpenMP runtime calls.
UH compiler effort designed a hybrid compiler with object code generation on Itaniums and source- to-source OpenMP translation on other platforms. It is a good reference OpenMP implementation.

Most target specific platforms for competitive performance. The global scalar optimizer WOPT is subsequently invoked. Openyh only extra work needed in the opdnuh to the nested microtask is to create a thread-local variable to realize the private variable c and to substitute this for c in the call to the enclosed procedure, which now becomes do sth a, b, mylocal c.

The version with optimizations from both OpenUH and GCC achieves thirty Itanium and UltraSparc to seventy percent Xeon extra speedup over the version with only GCC optimizations, which means the optimizations from OpenUH are well preserved under the source-to-source approach and have a significant effect on the final performance on multiple platforms. In both cases, the compiler generates an extra function the microtask ompregion main1 or the outlined function ompc f unc 0 opeuh part of the work of translating the parallel region enclosing do sth a, b, c.
To implement copyprivate, a new internal variable is introduced to store the address of the copyprivate variable from the single thread and all other threads will copy the value by dereferencing it.

The evaluation of the compiler is discussed in Section 4. The original Open64 chose to implement just one level of parallelism, which permits a straightforward multithreaded model. The advantage of this ipenuh is that all local variables in the original function are visible to the threads executing the nested microtask and thus they are shared by default.
A merge of these two efforts has resulted in the OpenUH compiler and associated Tsinghua runtime library.
OpenUH: an optimizing, portable OpenMP compiler
The OpenMP standard makes the implementation of nested parallelism optional. Some other problems we faced included missing headers, an incorrect translation for multidimensional arrays, pointers and structures, and incompatible data type sizes for bit and bit platforms. Two other platforms were also used: Its features offer numerous opportunities to explore further enhancements to OpenMP and to study its o;enuh on existing and new architectures.
Code reconstruction to translate an OMP FOR Data environment handling is simplified by the adoption opebuh nested microtasking instead of outlined functions to represent parallel regions. First, it must implement standard user level OpenMP runtime library routines such as omp set lockomp set num threads and omp get wtime. Variables in firstprivate, lastprivate and reduction lists are treated in a similar way, but require some additional work.
The translation of a submitted OpenMP program works as follows: For firstprivate, the compiler adds a statement to initialize the local copy using the value of its global counterpart at the beginning of the code segment.
But none of them translate all of the source languages that OpenMP supports, and one of them is a partial implementation only. Enter the email address you signed up with and we'll email you a reset link.

The next phase, the interprocedural analyzer IPAis enabled if desired to carry out interprocedural alias analysis, array section analysis, inlining, dead function and variable elimination, interprocedural constant propagation and more. If not, and if threads are available, the parallel code version will be used.
The translation that outlines the parallel region has more to take care of, since it must wrap the addresses of shared variables a and b in the main function and pass them to the runtime library call. We used the enhanced whirl2c tool from the Berkeley UPC compiler to help resolve some of these problems.
