This patch introduces the logic implementing hierarchical scheduling. First and foremost, hierarchical scheduling is off by default To enable, use -DLIBOMP_USE_HIER_SCHED=On during CMake's configure stage. This work is based off if the IWOMP paper: "Workstealing and Nested Parallelism in SMP Systems" Hierarchical scheduling is the layering of OpenMP schedules for different layers of the memory hierarchy. One can have multiple layers between the threads and the global iterations space. The threads will go up the hierarchy to grab iterations, using possibly a different schedule & chunk for each layer. [ Global iteration space (0-999) ] (use static) [ L1 | L1 | L1 | L1 ] (use dynamic,1) [ T0 T1 | T2 T3 | T4 T5 | T6 T7 ] In the example shown above, there are 8 threads and 4 L1 caches begin targeted. If the topology indicates that there are two threads per core, then two consecutive threads will share the data of one L1 cache unit. This example would have the iteration space (0-999) split statically across the four L1 caches (so the first L1 would get (0-249), the second would get (250-499), etc). Then the threads will use a dynamic,1 schedule to grab iterations from the L1 cache units. There are currently four supported layers: L1, L2, L3, NUMA OMP_SCHEDULE can now read a hierarchical schedule with this syntax: OMP_SCHEDULE='EXPERIMENTAL LAYER,SCHED[,CHUNK][:LAYER,SCHED[,CHUNK]...]:SCHED,CHUNK And OMP_SCHEDULE can still read the normal SCHED,CHUNK syntax from before I've kept most of the hierarchical scheduling logic inside kmp_dispatch_hier.h to try to keep it separate from the rest of the code.
