Deterministic Replay What is deterministic replay? • Record and reproduce non-deterministic events • Program input (interrupt, I/O, DMA, etc.) • Shared-memory dependencies Deterministic replay uses 1) Debugging • Reproducing concurrency bugs • Time-travel debugging 2) Heavyweight dynamic analysis 3) Forensics
Traditional Deterministic Replay Systems Thread 1 Thread 2 Thread 3 Checkpoint Memory and Register State Log non-deterministic program input Interrupts, I/O values, DMA, etc. Write Read Read Log shared memory dependencies
Recording Shared-Memory Dependencies Problem • Need to monitor every memory operation Software-based replay systems • PinSEL(Intel), iDNA(Microsoft) • ODR (Berkeley), PRES (UCSD) • Respec/DoublePlay(Michigan) Hardware-based replay systems • RTR/ReRun(Wisconsin) • Strata (UCSD) • DeLorean(UIUC) • LReplay(CAS) • Timetraveler (Purdue) → 10-100x → Replay is not guaranteed → 2x throughput overhead : Total Store Order → Complex because precise recorder → Only few systems support relaxed consistency model
Hardware Complexity in Previous Solutions Support for precisely logging shared-memory dependencies • Monitor and log cache coherence messages Support for Total Store Order (TSO) model • Detect sequential consistency (SC) violation • Log SC-violatingloads Complexity • Require invasive changes to coherence sub-system • Complex to design and verify • 9 design bugs in coherence mechanism of AMD64 [Narayanasamy et al. ICCD’06] RTR [Xu et al. ASPLOS’06]
Our Approach Complexity-effective solution [MICRO’09] • Do NOT record shared-memory dependencies at all • Infer shared-memory dependencies offline • UsingSatisfiability Modulo Theory (SMT) solver Contribution • Find a causal order compliant to Total Store Order • Bound search space under TSO

Load-based Logging Architecture [Narayanasamy et al, ISCA’05] [Lee et al. MICRO’09] Insight • Recording initial register state and values of loads is sufficient for deterministic replay • Implicitly captures the program input from I/O, DMA, interrupts, etc. • Input and output of other instructions are reproduced during replay Optimization • Record a load only if it is the first access to a memory location Processor support • Recording data fetched on a cache miss captures first loads • Any first access to a location would result in a cache miss • May unnecessarily record data due to store misses, but that is OK
Recording Cache Miss Data (First Loads) • Checkpoint • Register Values • Program Counter Log file Checkpoint • Record cache misses • <Memory count , Data> • Implicitly capture first loads Load A = 0 <cnt1, 0> Load B = 5 <cnt2, 5> • Deterministic Replay • Input and output (including • address) of all instructions • are replayed Load A = 0 <cnt3, 0> Store C = 1 • On a store miss • Record old value – data before • store update • New value – data after store • update – can be reproduced • deterministically Execution Time First Load Cache Miss
Cache Miss Logging for Multithreaded Programs Insight • Load-based recorder (initial register state + loads) for each thread is sufficient for replaying that thread => Recording cache miss data is sufficient for multithreaded programs => No additional hardware support required for recording dependencies Reason • Load dependent on a remote write will cause a cache miss to ensure coherence => Implicitly records load values dependent on remote writes Effect • Canreplay each thread in isolation (independent of other threads) regardless of underlying consistency model
