LOG:
+Version 4.0.0 (development branch) versus 3.2.3
+-Front-End:
+1- Support .nc cache modifier and __ldg function to access the read-only L1D cache
+2- Partially-support some SASS_60 in the PTXP_PLUS (not completed yet)
+-GPU Core:
+1- Fermi/Pascal coalescer: coalescing on 32-bytes sectors.
+2- Adding separate dp unit pipeline.
+3- diff dual issue: allow scheduler to issue diff insts at a time
+4- Fair memory issue from multiple schedulers.
+-Cache System:
+1- Sector L1/L2 cache
+2- Fetch-on-write and lazy-fetch-on-read write allocation policy.
+3- Improving the L1 cache throughput (streaming L1 cache)
+4- Performance model for CUDA memory copy.
+5- Support memory partition indexing to reduce partition camping (POLY, XOR and PAE (ISCA’18) Indexing)
+6- Adaptive cache configuration
+-Memory:
+1- Performance Model for HBM (mainly the dual-bus interface)
+2- Separate Read/Write buffers.
+3- Advanced bank indexing function.
+-Statistics:
+1- Adding more detailed cache statistics to define and analyze cache bottlenecks.
+2- Adding more detailed memory statistics (BLP, RBL, etc) to define and analyze memory bottlenecks.
+3- Addig new system stats: gpu occupancy, L2BW, etc
+-Configs:
+Adding the Pascal and Volta config files that has been correlated against real hardware.
+See the correlation website here:
