ML inference acceleration for lightweight VMMs

Talkat FOSDEM 2021 · on Saturday, 2021-02-06· at 12:15· D.virtualization· [machine-learning]

vAccel is a lightweight framework and paravirtual runtime (vAccelRT) that exposes ML and linear-algebra acceleration operators to VM tenants without embedding full vendor runtimes in functions. The implementation provides modular backends that bind to acceleration stacks (jetson-inference/TensorRT, Google Coral TPU, with pathways for CUDA and OpenCL) and is integrated into KVM VMMs QEMU and AWS Firecracker to enable inference acceleration for lightweight VMs on x86_64 and aarch64. A demo uses containerized deployment to show vAccel in action.
