The accrued changes decrease latency from 7-8 microseconds to ~1 +- 0.5 microsecond depending on spin configuration. By default, no spinning will be done. * Renamed USE_RT_THREADS to PWQ_RT_THREADS for consistency. * Allow specification of number of CPU:s by using the environment variable PWQ_ACTIVE_CPU - this is useful when using e.g. processor sets (fewer CPU:s are truly available to the process than is physically available in the machine). Proper auto-detection of this would be even nicer in the future, but investigation for the various platforms is required - this environment variable allows for a simple workaround in the meantime.Version 0.7.1 r157released 7/02/2011--- * Fix a memory leak in worker_overcommit_main() when reaping idle threads.Version 0.7 r150released 6/13/2011--- * Replace pthread emulation macros with winpthreads.h from http://locklessinc.com/articles/pthreads_on_windows/ * Fix witem_cache test to link on solaris also * Avoid possible overrun of priority level * Fixed possible deadlock. * Cleaned up witem cache interface and usage for easier reading of code. * Link with libumem on Solaris * Add -Wextra to CFLAGS and fix the related warnings * Implement the workqueue overcommit attribute. Make wqlist an array instead of an array of lists. Change wqlist_scan() to be more efficient.Version 0.6 r134released 5/16/2011--- * Add a pthread_atfork() handler to reinitialize the library after fork(). * Defer the manager thread creation until pthread_workqueue_create_np().Version 0.5.1 r125released 5/7/2011--- * Fix the testing/latency Makefile to work on 32-bit Linux. * Remove unused variables from testing/latency.cVersion 0.5 r120released 5/6/2011--- * Add CMakeLists.txt for building under CMake. * Support building on Windows under MinGW and MSVC. * Fixed a deadlock during startup. We could actually raise and get a lost wakeup of the pthread_cond_wait in manager_init() as the manager already managed to signal before we went to sleep. (happened around 1/1000 of startups on a large multicore). * Finetune ramp-up logic when system is under heavy load - allow up to worker_idle_threshold threads regardless of system load, otherwise limit thread creation when system is under NCPU:s load rather than 2*NCPU:s (it is way too late to limit it on a larger multicore machine...). * Create a witem_cache_init() function so that the TLS key can be made private to witem_cache.o * Fix compilation on 32-bit Linux (Credit: Marius Zwicker) * Don't reset the signal mask, it should be blocked for the manager thread (and any subsequently started threads) as well * Enabled experimental support for real-time threads scheduling class on Solaris, specify PWQ_RT_THREADS to enable it. Be careful when using, may take all available resources unless used in combination with processor sets, thus effectivively hanging the machine * Add option for static library build activated by defining MAKE_STATIC * Enable debugging on windows by an environment variable as wellVersion 0.4.1 r99released 3/13/2011--- * Add -lpthread to LDFLAGSVersion 0.4 r97released 3/12/2011--- * Improved printf debugging; to use it, define the environment variable "PWQ_DEBUG=yes" * New function threads_runnable() determines how many LWPs are on the run queue and uses this information to improve the thread pool management heuristic. * All ELF symbols are now hidden by default, and only the public API symbols are visible. * Improved workqueue ramp-up and ramp-down behavior.Version 0.3 r81released 3/6/2011--- * Fix DESTDIR support in the 'make install' target.Version 0.2 r77released 3/6/2011--- * Add support for FreeBSD, Solaris, and Microsoft Windows * Fix a race condition that would cause deadlock in rare cases when either: 1) pthread_cond_signal() was called while no other threads were blocked a call to pthread_cond_wait(), or 2) pthread_cond_signal() was called multiple times before the any thread blocking in a call to pthread_cond_wait() was awoken by the scheduler. The fix is to ensure that the call to pthread_cond_signal() occurs while the calling thread holds the same mutex used by the threads that call pthread_cond_wait(). Credit to Joakim Johansson for finding the bug and providing a patch.Version 0.1 r?released 6/13/2010 --- * Initial release for Debian as a patch applied to libdispatch. There was no tarball released for this version.
