27 /*
28 * Overview:
29 *
30 * ForkJoinWorkerThreads are managed by ForkJoinPools and perform
31 * ForkJoinTasks. This class includes bookkeeping in support of
32 * worker activation, suspension, and lifecycle control described
33 * in more detail in the internal documentation of class
34 * ForkJoinPool. And as described further below, this class also
35 * includes special-cased support for some ForkJoinTask
36 * methods. But the main mechanics involve work-stealing:
37 *
38 * Work-stealing queues are special forms of Deques that support
39 * only three of the four possible end-operations -- push, pop,
40 * and deq (aka steal), under the further constraints that push
41 * and pop are called only from the owning thread, while deq may
42 * be called from other threads. (If you are unfamiliar with
43 * them, you probably want to read Herlihy and Shavit's book "The
44 * Art of Multiprocessor programming", chapter 16 describing these
45 * in more detail before proceeding.) The main work-stealing
46 * queue design is roughly similar to those in the papers "Dynamic
47 * Circular Work-Stealing Deque" by Chase and Lev, SPAA 2005
48 * (http://research.sun.com/scalable/pubs/index.html) and
49 * "Idempotent work stealing" by Michael, Saraswat, and Vechev,
50 * PPoPP 2009 (http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1504186).
51 * The main differences ultimately stem from gc requirements that
52 * we null out taken slots as soon as we can, to maintain as small
53 * a footprint as possible even in programs generating huge
54 * numbers of tasks. To accomplish this, we shift the CAS
55 * arbitrating pop vs deq (steal) from being on the indices
56 * ("base" and "sp") to the slots themselves (mainly via method
57 * "casSlotNull()"). So, both a successful pop and deq mainly
58 * entail a CAS of a slot from non-null to null. Because we rely
59 * on CASes of references, we do not need tag bits on base or sp.
60 * They are simple ints as used in any circular array-based queue
61 * (see for example ArrayDeque). Updates to the indices must
62 * still be ordered in a way that guarantees that sp == base means
63 * the queue is empty, but otherwise may err on the side of
64 * possibly making the queue appear nonempty when a push, pop, or
65 * deq have not fully committed. Note that this means that the deq
66 * operation, considered individually, is not wait-free. One thief
67 * cannot successfully continue until another in-progress one (or,
68 * if previously empty, a push) completes. However, in the
69 * aggregate, we ensure at least probabilistic non-blockingness.
70 * If an attempted steal fails, a thief always chooses a different
71 * random victim target to try next. So, in order for one thief to
72 * progress, it suffices for any in-progress deq or new push on
73 * any empty queue to complete. One reason this works well here is
74 * that apparently-nonempty often means soon-to-be-stealable,
75 * which gives threads a chance to set activation status if
76 * necessary before stealing.
77 *
78 * This approach also enables support for "async mode" where local
79 * task processing is in FIFO, not LIFO order; simply by using a
80 * version of deq rather than pop when locallyFifo is true (as set
81 * by the ForkJoinPool). This allows use in message-passing
82 * frameworks in which tasks are never joined.
83 *
84 * When a worker would otherwise be blocked waiting to join a
85 * task, it first tries a form of linear helping: Each worker
86 * records (in field currentSteal) the most recent task it stole
87 * from some other worker. Plus, it records (in field currentJoin)
88 * the task it is currently actively joining. Method joinTask uses
89 * these markers to try to find a worker to help (i.e., steal back
90 * a task from and execute it) that could hasten completion of the
91 * actively joined task. In essence, the joiner executes a task
92 * that would be on its own local deque had the to-be-joined task
93 * not been stolen. This may be seen as a conservative variant of
94 * the approach in Wagner & Calder "Leapfrogging: a portable
95 * technique for implementing efficient futures" SIGPLAN Notices,
96 * 1993 (http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=155354). It differs
97 * in that: (1) We only maintain dependency links across workers
98 * upon steals, rather than use per-task bookkeeping. This may
99 * require a linear scan of workers array to locate stealers, but
100 * usually doesn't because stealers leave hints (that may become
101 * stale/wrong) of where to locate them. This isolates cost to
102 * when it is needed, rather than adding to per-task overhead.
103 * (2) It is "shallow", ignoring nesting and potentially cyclic
104 * mutual steals. (3) It is intentionally racy: field currentJoin
105 * is updated only while actively joining, which means that we
106 * miss links in the chain during long-lived tasks, GC stalls etc
107 * (which is OK since blocking in such cases is usually a good
108 * idea). (4) We bound the number of attempts to find work (see
109 * MAX_HELP_DEPTH) and fall back to suspending the worker and if
110 * necessary replacing it with a spare (see
111 * ForkJoinPool.awaitJoin).
112 *
113 * Efficient implementation of these algorithms currently relies
114 * on an uncomfortable amount of "Unsafe" mechanics. To maintain
115 * correct orderings, reads and writes of variable base require
116 * volatile ordering. Variable sp does not require volatile
117 * writes but still needs store-ordering, which we accomplish by
118 * pre-incrementing sp before filling the slot with an ordered
119 * store. (Pre-incrementing also enables backouts used in
120 * joinTask.) Because they are protected by volatile base reads,
121 * reads of the queue array and its slots by other threads do not
122 * need volatile load semantics, but writes (in push) require
123 * store order and CASes (in pop and deq) require (volatile) CAS
124 * semantics. (Michael, Saraswat, and Vechev's algorithm has
125 * similar properties, but without support for nulling slots.)
126 * Since these combinations aren't supported using ordinary
127 * volatiles, the only way to accomplish these efficiently is to
128 * use direct Unsafe calls. (Using external AtomicIntegers and
129 * AtomicReferenceArrays for the indices and array is
130 * significantly slower because of memory locality and indirection
131 * effects.)
132 *
133 * Further, performance on most platforms is very sensitive to
134 * placement and sizing of the (resizable) queue array. Even
135 * though these queues don't usually become all that big, the
136 * initial size must be large enough to counteract cache
137 * contention effects across multiple queues (especially in the
138 * presence of GC cardmarking). Also, to improve thread-locality,
139 * queues are initialized after starting. All together, these
140 * low-level implementation choices produce as much as a factor of
141 * 4 performance improvement compared to naive implementations,
142 * and enable the processing of billions of tasks per second,
143 * sometimes at the expense of ugliness.

1059 * This method provides a cheap heuristic guide for task
1060 * partitioning when programmers, frameworks, tools, or languages
1061 * have little or no idea about task granularity. In essence by
1062 * offering this method, we ask users only about tradeoffs in
1063 * overhead vs expected throughput and its variance, rather than
1064 * how finely to partition tasks.
1065 *
1066 * In a steady state strict (tree-structured) computation, each
1067 * thread makes available for stealing enough tasks for other
1068 * threads to remain active. Inductively, if all threads play by
1069 * the same rules, each thread should make available only a
1070 * constant number of tasks.
1071 *
1072 * The minimum useful constant is just 1. But using a value of 1
1073 * would require immediate replenishment upon each steal to
1074 * maintain enough tasks, which is infeasible. Further,
1075 * partitionings/granularities of offered tasks should minimize
1076 * steal rates, which in general means that threads nearer the top
1077 * of computation tree should generate more than those nearer the
1078 * bottom. In perfect steady state, each thread is at
1079 * approximately the same level of computation tree. However,
1080 * producing extra tasks amortizes the uncertainty of progress and
1081 * diffusion assumptions.
1082 *
1083 * So, users will want to use values larger, but not much larger
1084 * than 1 to both smooth over transient shortages and hedge
1085 * against uneven progress; as traded off against the cost of
1086 * extra task overhead. We leave the user to pick a threshold
1087 * value to compare with the results of this call to guide
1088 * decisions, but recommend values such as 3.
1089 *
1090 * When all threads are active, it is on average OK to estimate
1091 * surplus strictly locally. In steady-state, if one thread is
1092 * maintaining say 2 surplus tasks, then so are others. So we can
1093 * just use estimated queue length (although note that (sp - base)
1094 * can be an overestimate because of stealers lagging increments
1095 * of base). However, this strategy alone leads to serious
1096 * mis-estimates in some non-steady-state conditions (ramp-up,
1097 * ramp-down, other stalls). We can detect many of these by
1098 * further considering the number of "idle" threads, that are
1099 * known to have zero queued tasks, so compensate by a factor of
1100 * (#idle/#active) threads.
