* eventlog: Add MEM_RETURN event to give information about fragmentationMatthew Pickering2021-03-081-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | See #19357 The event reports the * Current number of megablocks allocated * The number that the RTS thinks it needs * The number is managed to return to the OS When current > need then the difference is returned to the OS, the successful number of returned mblocks is reported by 'returned'. In a fragmented heap current > need but returned < current - need.
* Prefer #if defined to #ifdefBen Gamari2017-04-281-1/+1
| | | | Our new CPP linter enforces this.
* cpp: Use #pragma once instead of #ifndef guardsBen Gamari2017-04-231-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This both says what we mean and silences a bunch of spurious CPP linting warnings. This pragma is supported by all CPP implementations which we support.

* NUMA supportSimon Marlow2016-06-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Summary: The aim here is to reduce the number of remote memory accesses on systems with a NUMA memory architecture, typically multi-socket servers. Linux provides a NUMA API for doing two things: * Allocating memory local to a particular node * Binding a thread to a particular node When given the +RTS --numa flag, the runtime will * Determine the number of NUMA nodes (N) by querying the OS * Assign capabilities to nodes, so cap C is on node C%N * Bind worker threads on a capability to the correct node * Keep a separate free lists in the block layer for each node * Allocate the nursery for a capability from node-local memory * Allocate blocks in the GC from node-local memory For example, using nofib/parallel/queens on a 24-core 2-socket machine: ``` $ ./Main 15 +RTS -N24 -s -A64m Total time 173.960s ( 7.467s elapsed) $ ./Main 15 +RTS -N24 -s -A64m --numa Total time 150.836s ( 6.423s elapsed) ``` The biggest win here is expected to be allocating from node-local memory, so that means programs using a large -A value (as here). According to perf, on this program the number of remote memory accesses were reduced by more than 50% by using `--numa`. Test Plan: * validate * There's a new flag --debug-numa=<n> that pretends to do NUMA without actually making the OS calls, which is useful for testing the code on non-NUMA systems. * TODO: I need to add some unit tests Reviewers: erikd, austin, rwbarton, ezyang, bgamari, hvr, niteria Subscribers: thomie Differential Revision: https://phabricator.haskell.org/D2199
* rts: Replace `nat` with `uint32_t`Erik de Castro Lopo2016-05-051-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | The `nat` type was an alias for `unsigned int` with a comment saying it was at least 32 bits. We keep the typedef in case client code is using it but mark it as deprecated.

* Revert "rts: add Emacs 'Local Variables' to every .c file"Simon Marlow2014-09-291-8/+0

* rts: add Emacs 'Local Variables' to every .c fileAustin Seipp2014-07-281-0/+8
| | | | | | | | This will hopefully help ensure some basic consistency in the forward by overriding buffer variables. In particular, it sets the wrap length, the offset to 4, and turns off tabs. Signed-off-by: Austin Seipp <austin@well-typed.com>
* Lots of nat -> StgWord changesSimon Marlow2012-09-071-4/+4

* Deprecate lnat, and use StgWord insteadSimon Marlow2012-09-071-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | lnat was originally "long unsigned int" but we were using it when we wanted a 64-bit type on a 64-bit machine. This broke on Windows x64, where long == int == 32 bits. Using types of unspecified size is bad, but what we really wanted was a type with N bits on an N-bit machine. StgWord is exactly that. lnat was mentioned in some APIs that clients might be using (e.g. StackOverflowHook()), so we leave it defined but with a comment to say that it's deprecated.

* Declare RTS-private prototypes with __attribute__((visibility("hidden")))Simon Marlow2009-08-051-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | This has no effect with static libraries, but when the RTS is in a shared library it does two things: - it prevents the function from being exposed by the shared library - internal calls to the function can use the faster non-PLT calls, because the function cannot be overriden at link time.

* Split GC.c, and move storage manager into sm/ directorySimon Marlow2006-10-241-0/+19
In preparation for parallel GC, split up the monolithic GC.c file into smaller parts. Also in this patch (and difficult to separate, unfortunatley): - Don't include Stable.h in Rts.h, instead just include it where necessary. - consistently use STATIC_INLINE in source files, and INLINE_HEADER in header files. STATIC_INLINE is now turned off when DEBUG is on, to make debugging easier. - The GC no longer takes the get_roots function as an argument. We weren't making use of this generalisation.
