Abstract

Soft error can lead to silent data corruption(SDC) that affects the reliability of computer system. One prerequisite to prevent SDC is calculating the vulnerability factor of the target program. Traditional methods are not capable of extracting program semantics, which led to inferior of the fault propagation mechanism. This paper proposed a program vulnerability factor evaluation method based on graph attention network(EpicGNN). EpicGNN used structural multi-head self-attention to quantify importance of fault propagations from one node to its neighbors and further to graph, different types of edges represent different instruction relationships. Then it aggregated the information of node and graph to update the representation. It applied a regression model to predict vulnerability factor. Experimental on spec2000, spec2006, rodinia and other datasets achieve 0.037~0.258 lower average absolute error compared with traditional methods. Moreover, EpicGNN obtains good performance on unseen graphs.
