public class ForkJoinWorkerThread extends Thread {
/*
* Overview:
*
* ForkJoinWorkerThreads are managed by ForkJoinPools and perform
* ForkJoinTasks. This class includes bookkeeping in support of
* worker activation, suspension, and lifecycle control described
* in more detail in the internal documentation of class
* ForkJoinPool. And as described further below, this class also
* includes special-cased support for some ForkJoinTask
* methods. But the main mechanics involve work-stealing:
*
* Work-stealing queues are special forms of Deques that support
* only three of the four possible end-operations -- push, pop,
* and deq (aka steal), under the further constraints that push
* and pop are called only from the owning thread, while deq may
* be called from other threads. (If you are unfamiliar with
* them, you probably want to read Herlihy and Shavit's book "The
* Art of Multiprocessor programming", chapter 16 describing these
* in more detail before proceeding.) The main work-stealing
* queue design is roughly similar to those in the papers "Dynamic
* Circular Work-Stealing Deque" by Chase and Lev, SPAA 2005
* (http://research.sun.com/scalable/pubs/index.html) and
* "Idempotent work stealing" by Michael, Saraswat, and Vechev,
* PPoPP 2009 (http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1504186).
* The main differences ultimately stem from gc requirements that
* we null out taken slots as soon as we can, to maintain as small
* a footprint as possible even in programs generating huge
* numbers of tasks. To accomplish this, we shift the CAS
* arbitrating pop vs deq (steal) from being on the indices
* ("queueBase" and "queueTop") to the slots themselves (mainly
* via method "casSlotNull()"). So, both a successful pop and deq
* mainly entail a CAS of a slot from non-null to null. Because
* we rely on CASes of references, we do not need tag bits on
* queueBase or queueTop. They are simple ints as used in any
* circular array-based queue (see for example ArrayDeque).
* Updates to the indices must still be ordered in a way that
* guarantees that queueTop == queueBase means the queue is empty,
* but otherwise may err on the side of possibly making the queue
* appear nonempty when a push, pop, or deq have not fully
* committed. Note that this means that the deq operation,
* considered individually, is not wait-free. One thief cannot
* successfully continue until another in-progress one (or, if
* previously empty, a push) completes. However, in the
* aggregate, we ensure at least probabilistic non-blockingness.
* If an attempted steal fails, a thief always chooses a different
* random victim target to try next. So, in order for one thief to
* progress, it suffices for any in-progress deq or new push on
* any empty queue to complete.
*
* This approach also enables support for "async mode" where local
* task processing is in FIFO, not LIFO order; simply by using a
* version of deq rather than pop when locallyFifo is true (as set
* by the ForkJoinPool). This allows use in message-passing
* frameworks in which tasks are never joined. However neither
* mode considers affinities, loads, cache localities, etc, so
* rarely provide the best possible performance on a given
* machine, but portably provide good throughput by averaging over
* these factors. (Further, even if we did try to use such
* information, we do not usually have a basis for exploiting
* it. For example, some sets of tasks profit from cache
* affinities, but others are harmed by cache pollution effects.)
*
* When a worker would otherwise be blocked waiting to join a
* task, it first tries a form of linear helping: Each worker
* records (in field currentSteal) the most recent task it stole
* from some other worker. Plus, it records (in field currentJoin)
* the task it is currently actively joining. Method joinTask uses
* these markers to try to find a worker to help (i.e., steal back
* a task from and execute it) that could hasten completion of the
* actively joined task. In essence, the joiner executes a task
* that would be on its own local deque had the to-be-joined task
* not been stolen. This may be seen as a conservative variant of
* the approach in Wagner & Calder "Leapfrogging: a portable
* technique for implementing efficient futures" SIGPLAN Notices,
* 1993 (http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=155354). It differs
* in that: (1) We only maintain dependency links across workers
* upon steals, rather than use per-task bookkeeping. This may
* require a linear scan of workers array to locate stealers, but
* usually doesn't because stealers leave hints (that may become
* stale/wrong) of where to locate them. This isolates cost to
* when it is needed, rather than adding to per-task overhead.
* (2) It is "shallow", ignoring nesting and potentially cyclic
* mutual steals. (3) It is intentionally racy: field currentJoin
* is updated only while actively joining, which means that we
* miss links in the chain during long-lived tasks, GC stalls etc
* (which is OK since blocking in such cases is usually a good
* idea). (4) We bound the number of attempts to find work (see
* MAX_HELP) and fall back to suspending the worker and if
* necessary replacing it with another.
*
* Efficient implementation of these algorithms currently relies
* on an uncomfortable amount of "Unsafe" mechanics. To maintain
* correct orderings, reads and writes of variable queueBase
* require volatile ordering. Variable queueTop need not be
* volatile because non-local reads always follow those of
* queueBase. Similarly, because they are protected by volatile
* queueBase reads, reads of the queue array and its slots by
* other threads do not need volatile load semantics, but writes
* (in push) require store order and CASes (in pop and deq)
* require (volatile) CAS semantics. (Michael, Saraswat, and
* Vechev's algorithm has similar properties, but without support
* for nulling slots.) Since these combinations aren't supported
* using ordinary volatiles, the only way to accomplish these
* efficiently is to use direct Unsafe calls. (Using external
* AtomicIntegers and AtomicReferenceArrays for the indices and
* array is significantly slower because of memory locality and
* indirection effects.)
*
* Further, performance on most platforms is very sensitive to
* placement and sizing of the (resizable) queue array. Even
* though these queues don't usually become all that big, the
* initial size must be large enough to counteract cache
* contention effects across multiple queues (especially in the
* presence of GC cardmarking). Also, to improve thread-locality,
* queues are initialized after starting.

/**
* Implements ForkJoinTask.getSurplusQueuedTaskCount(). Returns
* an estimate of the number of tasks, offset by a function of
* number of idle workers.
*
* This method provides a cheap heuristic guide for task
* partitioning when programmers, frameworks, tools, or languages
* have little or no idea about task granularity. In essence by
* offering this method, we ask users only about tradeoffs in
* overhead vs expected throughput and its variance, rather than
* how finely to partition tasks.
*
* In a steady state strict (tree-structured) computation, each
* thread makes available for stealing enough tasks for other
* threads to remain active. Inductively, if all threads play by
* the same rules, each thread should make available only a
* constant number of tasks.
*
* The minimum useful constant is just 1. But using a value of 1
* would require immediate replenishment upon each steal to
* maintain enough tasks, which is infeasible. Further,
* partitionings/granularities of offered tasks should minimize
* steal rates, which in general means that threads nearer the top
* of computation tree should generate more than those nearer the
* bottom. In perfect steady state, each thread is at
* approximately the same level of computation tree. However,
* producing extra tasks amortizes the uncertainty of progress and
* diffusion assumptions.
*
* So, users will want to use values larger, but not much larger
* than 1 to both smooth over transient shortages and hedge
* against uneven progress; as traded off against the cost of
* extra task overhead. We leave the user to pick a threshold
* value to compare with the results of this call to guide
* decisions, but recommend values such as 3.
*
* When all threads are active, it is on average OK to estimate
* surplus strictly locally. In steady-state, if one thread is
* maintaining say 2 surplus tasks, then so are others. So we can
* just use estimated queue length (although note that (queueTop -
* queueBase) can be an overestimate because of stealers lagging
* increments of queueBase). However, this strategy alone leads
* to serious mis-estimates in some non-steady-state conditions
* (ramp-up, ramp-down, other stalls). We can detect many of these
* by further considering the number of "idle" threads, that are
* known to have zero queued tasks, so compensate by a factor of
* (#idle/#active) threads.
