如何使用SIMD实现atoi?

How to implement atoi using SIMD?

我想尝试使用 SIMD 指令编写 atoi 实现,以包含在 RapidJSON(C++ JSON reader/writer 库)中。它目前在其他地方有一些SSE2和SSE4.2的优化。

如果是速度增益,多个 atoi 结果可以并行完成。字符串最初来自 JSON 数据缓冲区,因此 multi-atoi 函数必须执行任何所需的调配。

我想出的算法如下:

  1. 我可以按以下方式初始化长度为 N 的向量: [10^N..10^1]
  2. 我将缓冲区中的每个字符转换为一个整数,并将它们放在另一个向量中。
  3. 我将有效数字向量中的每个数字与数字向量中的匹配数字相乘,然后对结果求和。

我的目标是 x86 和 x86-64 架构。

我知道 AVX2 支持三操作数融合乘加,所以我将能够执行 Sum = Number * Significant Digit + Sum。
这就是我到目前为止的进展。
我的算法正确吗?有没有更好的方法?
是否有使用任何 SIMD 指令集的 atoi 参考实现?

我会这样处理这个问题:

  1. 将累加器初始化为0。
  2. 将字符串的下四个字符加载到 SSE 寄存器中。
  3. 从每个字符中减去值 '0'
  4. 找到向量中第一个无符号值大于9的值。
  5. 如果找到一个值,将向量的分量向右移动,这样在上一步中找到的值就被移出。
  6. 加载一个包含十次幂的向量(1000100101)并与之相乘。
  7. 计算向量中所有条目的总和。
  8. 将累加器乘以适当的值(取决于步骤 5 中的移位数)并添加向量。您可以为此使用 FMA 指令,但我不知道是否存在针对整数的此类指令。
  9. 如果在第四步中没有发现大于 9 的值,则转到第二步。
  10. Return 累加器。

您可以简化算法,方法是将第 5 步中以错误数字开头的所有条目清零,而不是移动,然后最后除以 10 的适当次方。

请记住,此算法会读取字符串末尾,因此不能直接替代 atoi

算法及其实现到此结束。它是完整的并经过(适度)测试(更新以减少持续内存使用和容忍 plus-char)。

这段代码的属性如下:

  • 适用于 intuint, 从 MIN_INT=-2147483648MAX_INT=2147483647 和 从 MIN_UINT=0MAX_UINT=4294967295
  • 前导 '-' 字符表示负数(合理),前导 '+' 字符被忽略
  • 忽略前导零(带或不带符号字符)
  • 溢出被忽略 - 更大的数字只是回绕
  • 零长度字符串导致值 0 = -0
  • 识别出无效字符,转换在第一个无效字符处结束
  • 最后一个前导零之后的至少 16 个字节必须是可访问的,并且在 EOS 之后读取可能的安全隐患留给调用者
  • 只需要SSE4.2

关于此实现:

  • 此代码示例可以 运行 与 GNU 汇编程序(as) 在开头使用 .intel_syntax noprefix
  • 常量的数据占用空间为 64 字节(4*128 位 XMM),相当于一个缓存行。
  • 代码足迹是 46 条指令,具有 51 个微操作和 64 个周期延迟
  • 一个循环用于删除前导零,否则除了错误处理之外没有跳转,所以...
  • 时间复杂度为 O(1)

算法的方法:

- Pointer to number string is expected in ESI
- Check if first char is '-', then indicate if negative number in EDX (**A**)
- Check for leading zeros and EOS (**B**)
- Check string for valid digits and get strlen() of valid chars (**C**)
- Reverse string so that power of 
  10^0 is always at BYTE 15
  10^1 is always at BYTE 14
  10^2 is always at BYTE 13
  10^3 is always at BYTE 12
  10^4 is always at BYTE 11 
  ... 
  and mask out all following chars (**D**)
- Subtract saturated '0' from each of the 16 possible chars (**1**)
- Take 16 consecutive byte-values and and split them to WORDs 
  in two XMM-registers (**2**)
  P O N M L K J I  | H G F E D C B A ->
    H   G   F   E  |   D   C   B   A (XMM0)
    P   O   N   M  |   L   K   J   I (XMM1)
- Multiply each WORD by its place-value modulo 10000 (1,10,100,1000)
  (factors smaller then MAX_WORD, 4 factors per QWORD/halfXMM)
  (**2**) so we can horizontally combine twice before another multiply.
  The PMADDWD instruction can do this and the next step:
- Horizontally add adjacent WORDs to DWORDs (**3**)
  H*1000+G*100  F*10+E*1  |  D*1000+C*100  B*10+A*1 (XMM0)
  P*1000+O*100  N*10+M*1  |  L*1000+K*100  J*10+I*1 (XMM1)
- Horizontally add adjacent DWORDs from XMM0 and XMM1 to XMM0 (**4**)
  xmmDst[31-0]   = xmm0[63-32]  + xmm0[31-0]
  xmmDst[63-32]  = xmm0[127-96] + xmm0[95-64]
  xmmDst[95-64]  = xmm1[63-32]  + xmm1[31-0]
  xmmDst[127-96] = xmm1[127-96] + xmm1[95-64]
- Values in XMM0 are multiplied with the factors (**5**)
  P*1000+O*100+N*10+M*1 (DWORD factor 1000000000000 = too big for DWORD, but possibly useful for QWORD number strings)
  L*1000+K*100+J*10+I*1 (DWORD factor 100000000)
  H*1000+G*100+F*10+E*1 (DWORD factor 10000)
  D*1000+C*100+B*10+A*1 (DWORD factor 1)
- The last step is adding these four DWORDs together with 2*PHADDD emulated by 2*(PSHUFD+PADDD)
  - xmm0[31-0]  = xmm0[63-32]  + xmm0[31-0]   (**6**)
    xmm0[63-32] = xmm0[127-96] + xmm0[95-64]
      (the upper QWORD contains the same and is ignored)
  - xmm0[31-0]  = xmm0[63-32]  + xmm0[31-0]   (**7**)
- If the number is negative (indicated in EDX by 000...0=pos or 111...1=neg), negate it(**8**)

Peter Cordes 在评论中建议的替代处理 是用 imul 替换最后两个 add+xor 指令。 OpCodes 的这种集中可能更好。 遗憾的是 IACA 不支持该指令并抛出 ! - instruction not supported, was not accounted in Analysis 评论。尽管如此,尽管我喜欢减少 OpCodes 并从 (2uops, 2c latency) 减少到 (1 uop, 3c latency - "worse latency, but still one m-op on AMD"),但我更愿意将选择的方式留给实施者。我还没有检查以下代码是否足以解析任何数字。只是为了完整性而提到,其他部分的代码修改可能是必要的(尤其是处理正数)。

替代方案可能是将最后两行替换为:

  ...
  /* negate if negative number */              
   imul eax, edx
  FINISH:
  /* EAX is return (u)int value */
