This set of changes enables the affinity interface (Either the preexisting native operating system or HWLOC) to be dynamically set at runtime initialization. The point of this change is that we were seeing performance degradations when using HWLOC. This allows the user to use the old affinity mechanisms which on large machines (>64 cores) makes a large difference in initialization time. These changes mostly move affinity code under a small class hierarchy: KMPAffinity class Mask {} KMPNativeAffinity : public KMPAffinity class Mask : public KMPAffinity::Mask KMPHwlocAffinity class Mask : public KMPAffinity::Mask Since all interface functions (for both affinity and the mask implementation) are virtual, the implementation can be chosen at runtime initialization.

A while back, Hal suggested updating the GUIDEDLL_EXPORTS macro guard to a more descriptive name. It represents a dynamic library build so KMP_DYNAMIC_LIB is a more suitable name. Differential Revision: http://reviews.llvm.org/D9899 llvm-svn: 238221

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. llvm-svn: 219214

This release use aligns with Intel(r) Composer XE 2013 SP1 Product Update 2 New features * The library can now be built with clang (though wiht some limitations since clang does not support 128 bit floats) * Support for Vtune analysis of load imbalance * Code contribution from Steven Noonan to build the runtime for ARM* architecture processors * First implementation of runtime API for OpenMP cancellation Bug Fixes * Fixed hang on Windows (only) when using KMP_BLOCKTIME=0 llvm-svn: 197914
