Hi,
I am trying to understand the software pipeline information provided
by the compiler.
I could not understand what the compiler means by

" Searching for software pipeline schedule at ...
        ii = 1  Schedule found with 10 iterations in parallel "
what does ii(iteration interval means) and iterations in parallel mean
and how does they affect software pipelining?

The software pipelined loop kernel is

;**
--------------------------------------------------------------------------*
L2:    ; PIPED LOOP KERNEL
DW$L$_retu$3$B:
	.dwpsn
"C:\CCStudio\tutorial\sim64xx\reed_6446\sum_of_no\Debug\Untitled21.c",10,0
	.dwpsn
"C:\CCStudio\tutorial\sim64xx\reed_6446\sum_of_no\Debug\Untitled21.c",12,0

           ADD     .L1     A3,A6,A6          ; |11| <0,9> 
||         DOTP2   .M1     A4,A4,A3          ; |11| <4,5> 
|| [ B0]   BDEC    .S2     L2,B0             ; |9| <5,4> 
||         LDNW    .D1T1   *A5++(4),A4       ; |11| <9,0> 

DW$L$_retu$3$E:
;**
--------------------------------------------------------------------------*
In this Loop kernel i cannot understand the comments after the
instructions.
e.g ADD     .L1     A3,A6,A6          ; |11| <0,9> 
what does "|11| <0,9>" mean?
Thanks

<mld>
Have you looked at the software pipeline info in the compiler manual
[spru187] and the C6000 programmer's guide [spru198]??
|11| is the source line number.
<0,9> means...
"It [compiler] attaches a 2-tuple <x, y> to the comments to specify
the iteration and cycle of the loop an instruction is on in the
software pipeline. The zero-based number x
represents the iteration the instruction is on during the first
execution of the loop kernel. The zero-based
number y represents the cycle that the instruction is scheduled on
within a single iteration of the loop."
