      [OpenMP] Enable ThreadSanitizer to check OpenMP programs · 50fed047
      Jonas Hahnfeld authored
      This patch allows ThreadSanitizer (Tsan) to verify OpenMP programs.
      It means that no false positive will be reported by Tsan when
      verifying an OpenMP programs.
      This patch introduces annotations within the OpenMP runtime module to
      provide information about thread synchronization to the Tsan runtime.
      
      In order to enable the Tsan support when building the runtime, you must
      enable the TSAN_SUPPORT option with the following environment variable:
      
      -DLIBOMP_TSAN_SUPPORT=TRUE
      
      The annotations will be enabled in the main shared library
      (same mechanism of OMPT).

      Disable monitor thread creation by default. · b66d1aab
      Jonathan Peyton authored
      This change set disables creation of the monitor thread by default.  The global
      counter maintained by the monitor thread was replaced by logic that uses system
      time directly, and cyclic yielding on Linux target was also removed since there
      was no clear benefit of using it. Turning on KMP_USE_MONITOR variable (=1)
      enables creation of monitor thread again if it is really necessary for some
      reasons.

      [OMPT] Overhaul OMPT initialization interface · 82a13bf3
      Jonathan Peyton authored
      The OMPT specification has changed. This revision brings the LLVM OpenMP
      implementation up to date.
      
      Technical overview of changes:
      Previously, a public weak symbol ompt_initialize was called after the OpenMP
      runtime is initialized. The new interface calls a global weak symbol ompt_tool
      prior to initialization. If a tool is present, ompt_tool returns a pointer to
      a function that matches the signature for ompt_initialize. After OpenMP is 
      initialized the function pointer is called to initialize a tool.
      Knowing that OMPT will be enabled before initialization allows OMPT support to
      be initialized as part of initialization instead of back patching
      initialization of OMPT support after the fact.
      Post OpenMP initialization support has been generalized moves from
      ompt-specific.c into ompt-general.c, since the OMPT initialization logic is no
      longer implementation specific.

      Fix some bugs in OMPT support · 122dd76f
      Jonathan Peyton authored
      1.) in kmp_csupport.c, move computation of parameters only needed for OMPT tracing
      inside a conditional to reduce overhead if not receiving ompt_event_master_begin
      callbacks.
      2.) in kmp_gsupport.c, remove spurious reset of OMPT reenter_runtime_frame (which 
      is set in its caller, GOMP_parallel_start correct placement of #if OMP_TRACE so 
      that state is maintained even if tracing support not included.  
      3.) in z_Linux_util.c, add architecture independent support for OMPT by setting 
      and resetting OMPT's exit_frame_ptr before and after invoking a microtask.  
      4.) On the Intel MIC, the loader refuses to retain static symbols in the 
      libomp.so shared library, even though tools need them. The loader could not be
      bullied into doing so. To accommodate this, I changed the visibility of OMPT 
      placeholder functions to public. This required additions in exports.so.txt, 
      adding extern "C" scoping in ompt-general.c so that the public placeholder
      symbols won't be mangled.

      Enable debugger support · 8fbb49ab
      Jonathan Peyton authored
      These changes enable external debuggers to conveniently interface with 
      the LLVM OpenMP Library.  Structures are added which describe the important
      internal structures of the OpenMP Library e.g., teams, threads, etc.
      This feature is turned on by default (CMake variable LIBOMP_USE_DEBUGGER)
      and can be turned off with -DLIBOMP_USE_DEBUGGER=off.

      Apply name change to src/* files. · 66338295
      Jonathan Peyton authored
      These changes are mostly in comments, but there are a few
      that aren't.  Change libiomp5 => libomp everywhere.  One internal
      function name is changed in kmp_gsupport.c, and in kmp_i18n.c, the
      static char[] variable 'name' is changed to "libomp".

      I apologise in advance for the size of this check-in. At Intel we do · 4cc4bb4c
      Jim Cownie authored
      understand that this is not friendly, and are working to change our
      internal code-development to make it easier to make development
      features available more frequently and in finer (more functional)
      chunks. Unfortunately we haven't got that in place yet, and unpicking
      this into multiple separate check-ins would be non-trivial, so please
      bear with me on this one. We should be better in the future.
      
      Apologies over, what do we have here?
      
      GGC 4.9 compatibility
      --------------------
      * We have implemented the new entrypoints used by code compiled by GCC
      4.9 to implement the same functionality in gcc 4.8. Therefore code
      compiled with gcc 4.9 that used to work will continue to do so.
      However, there are some other new entrypoints (associated with task
      cancellation) which are not implemented. Therefore user code compiled
      by gcc 4.9 that uses these new features will not link against the LLVM
      runtime. (It remains unclear how to handle those entrypoints, since
      the GCC interface has potentially unpleasant performance implications
      for join barriers even when cancellation is not used)
      
      --- new parallel entry points ---
      new entry points that aren't OpenMP 4.0 related
      These are implemented fully :-
            GOMP_parallel_loop_dynamic()
            GOMP_parallel_loop_guided()
            GOMP_parallel_loop_runtime()
            GOMP_parallel_loop_static()
            GOMP_parallel_sections()
            GOMP_parallel()
      
      --- cancellation entry points ---
      Currently, these only give a runtime error if OMP_CANCELLATION is true
      because our plain barriers don't check for cancellation while waiting
              GOMP_barrier_cancel()
              GOMP_cancel()
              GOMP_cancellation_point()
              GOMP_loop_end_cancel()
              GOMP_sections_end_cancel()
      
      --- taskgroup entry points ---
      These are implemented fully.
            GOMP_taskgroup_start()
            GOMP_taskgroup_end()
      
      --- target entry points ---
      These are empty (as they are in libgomp)
           GOMP_target()
           GOMP_target_data()
           GOMP_target_end_data()
           GOMP_target_update()
           GOMP_teams()
      
      Improvements in Barriers and Fork/Join
      --------------------------------------
      * Barrier and fork/join code is now in its own file (which makes it
      easier to understand and modify).
      * Wait/release code is now templated and in its own file; suspend/resume code is also templated
      * There's a new, hierarchical, barrier, which exploits the
      cache-hierarchy of the Intel(r) Xeon Phi(tm) coprocessor to improve
      fork/join and barrier performance.
      
      ***BEWARE*** the new source files have *not* been added to the legacy
      Cmake build system. If you want to use that fixes wil be required.
      
      Statistics Collection Code
      --------------------------
      * New code has been added to collect application statistics (if this
      is enabled at library compile time; by default it is not). The
      statistics code itself is generally useful, the lightweight timing
      code uses the X86 rdtsc instruction, so will require changes for other
      architectures.
      The intent of this code is not for users to tune their codes but
      rather 
      1) For timing code-paths inside the runtime
      2) For gathering general properties of OpenMP codes to focus attention
      on which OpenMP features are most used. 
      
      Nested Hot Teams
      ----------------
      * The runtime now maintains more state to reduce the overhead of
      creating and destroying inner parallel teams. This improves the
      performance of code that repeatedly uses nested parallelism with the
      same resource allocation. Set the new KMP_HOT_TEAMS_MAX_LEVEL
      envirable to a depth to enable this (and, of course, OMP_NESTED=true
      to enable nested parallelism at all).
      
      Improved Intel(r) VTune(Tm) Amplifier support
      ---------------------------------------------
      * The runtime provides additional information to Vtune via the
      itt_notify interface to allow it to display better OpenMP specific
      analyses of load-imbalance.
      
      Support for OpenMP Composite Statements
      ---------------------------------------
      * Implement new entrypoints required by some of the OpenMP 4.1
      composite statements.
      
      Improved ifdefs
      ---------------
      * More separation of concepts ("Does this platform do X?") from
      platforms ("Are we compiling for platform Y?"), which should simplify
      future porting.
      
      
      ScaleMP* contribution
      ---------------------
      Stack padding to improve the performance in their environment where
      cross-node coherency is managed at the page level.
      
      Redesign of wait and release code
      ---------------------------------
      The code is simplified and performance improved.
      
      Bug Fixes
      ---------
          *Fixes for Windows multiple processor groups.
          *Fix Fortran module build on Linux: offload attribute added.
          *Fix entry names for distribute-parallel-loop construct to be consistent with the compiler codegen.
          *Fix an inconsistent error message for KMP_PLACE_THREADS environment variable.
