Succession

Goldmont (GLM) is Intel's 14 nm microarchitecture of system on chips for the ultra-low power (ULP) devices. Goldmont-based processors and SoCs are part of the Atom, Pentium, and Celeron families. Goldmont superseded Airmont in August of 2016. With Goldmont, Intel stopped targeting smartphones altogether, cancelling the related cores and SKUs.

Key changes from Airmont

  • Pipeline
    • Compared to Airmont, Goldmont is a 3-issue core.
    • NOPs, MOVs and many ALU operations have 3 op/cycle throughput for 16, 32 and 64-bit registers. (8-bit ALU ops throughput is 2, 1.5 or 1 op per cycle).
    • ADC, SBB have 0.5 op/cycle throughput, unchanged from Airmont.
    • INC, DEC, BTx, shift ops are not faster than on Airmont, 8-bit shifts are slightly slower (0.66 op/cycle instead of 1).
    • Rotate-through-carry (RCL, RCR) throughput continues to be slow and is slightly slower (used to be ~10 cycles per op, now ~12).
    • 16- and 64-bit shift-double (SHLD, SHRD) throughput continues to be slow and is slightly slower (used to be ~10 cycles per op, now ~14) than on Airmont. (32-bit SHLD, SHRD are fast: 2-4 cycles).
    • Variable shifts and rotates (SHL r32, CL etc) latency increased from 1 cycle to 2 cycles.
    • Bit scan (BSF, BSR) throughput improved from 10 to 8 cycles per op.
    • MUL throughput is better by 1 cycle (used to be 5/7 cycles for 32/64-bit mul, now 4/6).
    • DIV is more than twice as fast as Airmont, 13 cycles for most divides, 128-bit/64-bit are ~42 cycles.
    • PUSH to POP forwarding is improved.
    • REP MOVS streaming copy is twice as fast: now ~26 bytes/cycle.
    • REP STOS fill is not improved: ~9 bytes/cycle.
    • Some vector instructions are faster, but like on Airmont, none have throughput >2 op/cycle. This includes often used ops like adds and multiplies:
      • MULPS and MULPD have 4 cycle latency and 1 op/cycle throughput (used to have L5 and T0.5).
      • ADDPD has 3 cycle latency and 1 op/cycle throughput (used to have L4 and T0.5).
    • CRC32 instruction throughput improved from 6 cycles/op to 1 cycle/op, latency is halved from 6 to 3.
  • Gen 9 GPUs

New instructions

Goldmont introduced a number of new instructions:

  • RDSEED - Generates 16, 32 or 64 bit random numbers seeds (NIST SP 800-90B & NIST SP 800-90C)
  • SMAP - Supervisor Mode Access Prevention
  • MPX -Memory Protection Extensions
  • XSAVEC - Save processor extended states with compaction to memory
  • XSAVES - Save processor supervisor-mode extended states to memory.
  • CLFLUSHOPT - Flush & Invalidates memory operand and its associated cache line (All L1/L2/L3 etc..)
  • SHA - Hardware acceleration for SHA hashing operations
  • FS/GS base access

Memory Hierarchy

  • Cache
    • Hardware prefetchers
    • L1 Cache:
      • 32 KiB 8-way set associative instruction, 64 B line size
      • 24 KiB 6-way set associative data, 64 B line size
      • Per core
    • L2 Cache:
      • 1 MiB 16-way set associative, 64 B line size
      • Per 2 cores
    • L3 Cache:
      • No level 3 cache
    • RAM
      • Maximum of 1 GiB, 2 GiB, 4 GiB, 8 GiB
      • dual 32-bit channels, 1 or 2 ranks per channel

Multithreading

Goldmont, like Airmont has no support for Intel Hyper-Threading Technology.
