From a311086d622d3c778e1da57cfae167c0ab1c0fb4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: rpj Date: Sun, 1 Jul 2001 13:23:10 +0000 Subject: 2001-06-25 Ross Johnson * create.c (pthread_create): Add priority inheritance attributes. * mutex.c (pthread_mutex_lock): Remove some overhead for PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL mutex types. Specifically, avoid calling pthread_self() and pthread_equal() to check/set the mutex owner. Introduce a new pseudo owner for this type. Test results suggest increases in speed of up to 90% for non-blocking locks. This is the default type of mutex used internally by other synchronising objects, ie. condition variables and read-write locks. The test rwlock7.c shows about a 30-35% speed increase over snapshot 2001-06-06. The price of this is that the application developer must ensure correct behaviour, or explicitly set the mutex to a safer type such as PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK. For example, PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL (or PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT) type mutexes will not return an error if a thread which is not the owner calls pthread_mutex_unlock. The call will succeed in unlocking the mutex if it is currently locked, but a subsequent unlock by the true owner will then fail with EPERM. This is however consistent with some other implementations. (pthread_mutex_unlock): Likewise. (pthread_mutex_trylock): Likewise. (pthread_mutex_destroy): Likewise. * attr.c (pthread_attr_init): PTHREAD_EXPLICIT_SCHED is the default inheritance attribute; THREAD_PRIORITY_NORMAL is the default priority for new threads. * sched.c (pthread_attr_setschedpolicy): Added routine. (pthread_attr_getschedpolicy): Added routine. (pthread_attr_setinheritsched): Added routine. (pthread_attr_getinheritsched): Added routine. * pthread.h (sched_rr_set_interval): Added as a macro; returns -1 with errno set to ENOSYS. 2001-06-23 Ross Johnson *sched.c (pthread_attr_setschedparam): Add priority range check. (sched_setscheduler): New function; checks for a valid pid and policy; checks for permission to set information in the target process; expects pid to be a Win32 process ID, not a process handle; the only scheduler policy allowed is SCHED_OTHER. (sched_getscheduler): Likewise, but checks for permission to query. * pthread.h (SCHED_*): Moved to sched.h as defined in the POSIX standard. * sched.h (SCHED_*): Moved from pthread.h. (pid_t): Defined if necessary. (sched_setscheduler): Defined. (sched_getscheduler): Defined. * pthread.def (sched_setscheduler): Exported. (sched_getscheduler): Likewise. 2001-06-23 Ross Johnson Contributed by - Ralf Brese * create.c (pthread_create): Set thread priority from thread attributes. --- tests/benchtest1.c | 117 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 117 insertions(+) create mode 100644 tests/benchtest1.c (limited to 'tests/benchtest1.c') diff --git a/tests/benchtest1.c b/tests/benchtest1.c new file mode 100644 index 0000000..883c24f --- /dev/null +++ b/tests/benchtest1.c @@ -0,0 +1,117 @@ +/* + * benchtest1.c + * + * Measure time taken to complete an elementary operation. + * + * - Mutex + * Single thread iteration over lock/unlock for each mutex type. + */ + +#include "test.h" +#include + +#ifdef __GNUC__ +#include +#endif + +#define ITERATIONS 10000000L + +pthread_mutex_t mx; +pthread_mutexattr_t ma; +struct _timeb currSysTimeStart; +struct _timeb currSysTimeStop; +long durationMilliSecs; +long overHeadMilliSecs = 0; + +#define GetDurationMilliSecs(_TStart, _TStop) ((_TStop.time*1000+_TStop.millitm) \ + - (_TStart.time*1000+_TStart.millitm)) + +/* + * Dummy use of j, otherwise the loop may be removed by the optimiser + * when doing the overhead timing with an empty loop. + */ +#define TESTSTART \ + { int i, j = 0, k = 0; _ftime(&currSysTimeStart); for (i = 0; i < ITERATIONS; i++) { j++; + +#define TESTSTOP \ + }; _ftime(&currSysTimeStop); if (j + k == i) j++; } + + +void +runTest (char * testNameString, int mType) +{ +#ifdef PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT + pthread_mutexattr_settype(&ma, mType); +#endif + pthread_mutex_init(&mx, &ma); + + TESTSTART + (void) pthread_mutex_lock(&mx); + (void) pthread_mutex_unlock(&mx); + TESTSTOP + + pthread_mutex_destroy(&mx); + + durationMilliSecs = GetDurationMilliSecs(currSysTimeStart, currSysTimeStop) + - overHeadMilliSecs; + + printf( "%-25s %15ld %15ld %15.3f\n", + testNameString, + ITERATIONS, + durationMilliSecs, + (float) durationMilliSecs * 1E3 / ITERATIONS); +} + + +int +main (int argc, char *argv[]) +{ + pthread_mutexattr_init(&ma); + + printf( "Single thread, non-blocking mutex locks/unlocks.\n\n"); + printf( "%-25s %15s %15s %15s\n", + "Test", + "Iterations", + "Total(msec)", + "lock/unlock(usec)"); + + /* + * Time the loop overhead so we can subtract it from the actual test times. + */ + + TESTSTART + TESTSTOP + + durationMilliSecs = GetDurationMilliSecs(currSysTimeStart, currSysTimeStop) + - overHeadMilliSecs; + + printf( "%-25s %15ld %15ld\n", + "Overhead", + ITERATIONS, + durationMilliSecs); + + overHeadMilliSecs = durationMilliSecs; + + /* + * Now we can start the actual tests + */ +#ifdef PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT + runTest("PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT", PTHREAD_MUTEX_DEFAULT); + + runTest("PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL", PTHREAD_MUTEX_NORMAL); + + runTest("PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK", PTHREAD_MUTEX_ERRORCHECK); + + runTest("PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE", PTHREAD_MUTEX_RECURSIVE); +#else + runTest("Non-blocking lock", 0); +#endif + + /* + * End of tests. + */ + + pthread_mutexattr_destroy(&ma); + + return 0; +} -- cgit v1.2.3
