Double buffering

I am trying to implement double buffering for my code, but somehow it leads to data dependency which I am not able to resolve.

 

Here is piece of my code:

 

float __attribute__((register)) sum[12];

float __attribute__((register)) sum1[2][48];

float __attribute__((register)) sum2[12];

float __attribute__((register)) sum3[2][48];

 

float __attribute__((register)) sum5[12];

float __attribute__((register)) sum6[2][48];

float __attribute__((register)) sum7[12];

float __attribute__((register)) sum8[2][48];

 

 

 

 

 

int iter = input_height * window * window;

int index =0;

sum_struct sum4;

sum_struct sum9, sum10, sum11, sum12, sum21, sum22, sum23,sum24;

int flag=0;

int inputWidth1 = inputWidth-2; 

 

while (index != iter)

{

 index++;

for(int r =0 ; r<3*kernel_width; r++)

{

 

for(int y=0;y<2; y++)

{

 #pragma unroll

for(int j=0;j<6;j++)

 {

   sum[j] = sum[j+6];

   sum2[j] = sum2[j+6];

 

    

    

 

  }

  sum9 = read_channel_intel(c8); 

  sum10 = read_channel_intel(c9);

  

   

  sum[11] = sum9[5];   

  sum[10] = sum9[4];

  sum[9] = sum9[3];   

  sum[8] = sum9[2];

  sum[7] = sum9[1];   

  sum[6] = sum9[0];

 

  sum2[11] = sum10[5];   

  sum2[10] = sum10[4];

  sum2[9] = sum10[3];   

  sum2[8] = sum10[2];

  sum2[7] = sum10[1];   

  sum2[6] = sum10[0];

   

 // flag= read_channel_intel(c16);

 }  

 

#pragma unroll

for(int i=0;i<12;i++)

{

sum1[index & 0x01][47-i] +=sum[11-i];

sum3[index & 0x01][47-i] +=sum2[11-i]; 

  }  

 

       int e5=0;

       int e10 =0;

 

       for(int y=0;y<pool_width2;y++)

       {  

 

        if( y<6)

       {

        e5 = e1 + (y) * inputWidth1;

        sum4.dat[0]= sum1[index & 0x01][ (y)* pool_width+0];

        sum4.dat[1] = sum1[index & 0x01][ (y)* pool_width+1];                

        sum4.dat[2] = sum1[index & 0x01][ (y)* pool_width+2];

        sum4.dat[3] = sum1[index & 0x01][ (y)* pool_width+3];                

        sum4.dat[4] = sum1[index & 0x01][ (y)* pool_width+4];

        sum4.dat[5] = sum1[index & 0x01][ (y)* pool_width+5];   

        }             

       else   

        { 

        e5 = e2+ (y-6) * inputWidth1;

        

          

        sum4.dat[0] = sum3[index & 0x01][ (y-6)* pool_width+0];

        sum4.dat[1] = sum3[index & 0x01][ (y-6)* pool_width+1];                

        sum4.dat[2] = sum3[index & 0x01][ (y-6)* pool_width+2];

        sum4.dat[3] = sum3[index & 0x01][ (y-6)* pool_width+3];                

        sum4.dat[4] = sum3[index & 0x01][ (y-6)* pool_width+4];

        sum4.dat[5] = sum3[index & 0x01][ (y-6)* pool_width+5];               

       }

        

 

Any suggestions on how to effectively implement double buffering will be really helpful
