2023-10-12M:N thread scheduler for RactorsKoichi Sasada
This patch introduce M:N thread scheduler for Ractor system. In general, M:N thread scheduler employs N native threads (OS threads) to manage M user-level threads (Ruby threads in this case). On the Ruby interpreter, 1 native thread is provided for 1 Ractor and all Ruby threads are managed by the native thread. From Ruby 1.9, the interpreter uses 1:1 thread scheduler which means 1 Ruby thread has 1 native thread. M:N scheduler change this strategy. Because of compatibility issue (and stableness issue of the implementation) main Ractor doesn't use M:N scheduler on default. On the other words, threads on the main Ractor will be managed with 1:1 thread scheduler. There are additional settings by environment variables: `RUBY_MN_THREADS=1` enables M:N thread scheduler on the main ractor. Note that non-main ractors use the M:N scheduler without this configuration. With this configuration, single ractor applications run threads on M:1 thread scheduler (green threads, user-level threads). `RUBY_MAX_CPU=n` specifies maximum number of native threads for M:N scheduler (default: 8). This patch will be reverted soon if non-easy issues are found. [Bug #19842]
2023-05-26Move rb_thread_cond_struct definition into thread_native.hKJ Tsanaktsidis
On Win32, currently, rb_nativethread_cond_t is an incomplete type because it's a typedef for `struct rb_thread_cond_struct`. That means you can't actually allocate a rb_nativethread_cond_t unless you also include THREAD_IMPL_H (since its defined in thread_win32.h) (alternatively, including vm_core.h also works). Move the definition of rb_thread_cond_struct into thread_native.h to alleviate this. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/7865
2022-05-24`native_tls_get()`' should not check resultsKoichi Sasada
caller should check the result of `native_tls_get()`. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/5933
2022-04-23introduce struct `rb_native_thread`Koichi Sasada
`rb_thread_t` contained `native_thread_data_t` to represent thread implementation dependent data. This patch separates them and rename it `rb_native_thread` and point it from `rb_thraed_t`. Now, 1 Ruby thread (`rb_thread_t`) has 1 native thread (`rb_native_thread`). Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/5836
2022-04-22rename thread internal namingKoichi Sasada
Now GVL is not process *Global* so this patch try to use another words. * `rb_global_vm_lock_t` -> `struct rb_thread_sched` * `gvl->owner` -> `sched->running` * `gvl->waitq` -> `sched->readyq` * `rb_gvl_init` -> `rb_thread_sched_init` * `gvl_destroy` -> `rb_thread_sched_destroy` * `gvl_acquire` -> `thread_sched_to_running` # waiting -> ready -> running * `gvl_release` -> `thread_sched_to_waiting` # running -> waiting * `gvl_yield` -> `thread_sched_yield` * `GVL_UNLOCK_BEGIN` -> `THREAD_BLOCKING_BEGIN` * `GVL_UNLOCK_END` -> `THREAD_BLOCKING_END` * removed * `rb_ractor_gvl` * `rb_vm_gvl_destroy` (not used) There are GVL functions such as `rb_thread_call_without_gvl()` yet but I don't have good name to replace them. Maybe GVL stands for "Greate Valuable Lock" or something like that. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/5814
2021-09-03Get rid of duplicate typedefNobuyoshi Nakada
2020-11-18fix public interfaceKoichi Sasada
To make some kind of Ractor related extensions, some functions should be exposed. * include/ruby/thread_native.h * rb_native_mutex_* * rb_native_cond_* * include/ruby/ractor.h * RB_OBJ_SHAREABLE_P(obj) * rb_ractor_shareable_p(obj) * rb_ractor_std*() * rb_cRactor and rm ractor_pub.h and rename srcdir/ractor.h to srcdir/ractor_core.h (to avoid conflict with include/ruby/ractor.h) Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/3775
2020-11-11introduce USE_VM_CLOCK for windows.Koichi Sasada
The timer function used on windows system set timer interrupt flag of current main ractor's executing ec and thread can detect the end of time slice. However, to set all ec->interrupt_flag for all running ractors, it is requires to synchronize with other ractors. However, timer thread can not acquire the ractor-wide lock because of some limitation. To solve this issue, this patch introduces USE_VM_CLOCK compile option to introduce rb_vm_t::clock. This clock will be incremented by the timer thread and each thread can check the incrementing by comparison with previous checked clock. At last, on windows platform this patch introduces some overhead, but I think there is no critical performance issue because of this modification. Notes: Merged: https://github.com/ruby/ruby/pull/3754
