2020-07-11tests/qht-bench: Adjust threshold computationRichard Henderson
In 06c4cc3660b3, we split the multiplication in two parts to avoid a clang warning. But because double still rounds to 53 bits, this does not provide additional precision beyond multiplication by nextafter(0x1p64, 0), the largest representable value smaller than 2**64. However, since we have eliminated 1.0, mutiplying by 2**64 produces a better distribution of input values to the output values.

2020-07-11tests/qht-bench: Adjust testing rate by -1Richard Henderson
Since the seed must be non-zero, subtracting 1 means puts the rate in 0..UINT64_MAX-1, which allows the 0 and UINT64_MAX thresholds to corrspond to 0% (never) and 100% (always).

2020-06-19qht: Fix threshold rate calculationRichard Henderson
tests/qht-bench.c:287:29: error: implicit conversion from 'unsigned long' to 'double' changes value from 18446744073709551615 to 18446744073709551616 [-Werror,-Wimplicit-int-float-conversion] *threshold = rate * UINT64_MAX; ~ ^~~~~~~~~~ Fix this by splitting the 64-bit constant into two halves, each of which is individually perfectly representable, the sum of which produces the correct arithmetic result. This is very likely just a sticking plaster over some underlying incorrect code, but it will suppress the warning for the moment. Cc: Emilio G.

2019-01-14tests: use g_usleep instead of rem = sleep(time)Alex Bennée
Relying on sleep to always return having slept isn't safe as a signal may have occurred. If signals are constantly incoming the program will never reach its termination condition. This is believed to be the mechanism causing time outs for qht-test in Travis. The glib g_usleep() deals with all of this for us so lets use it instead.

2018-09-26qht-bench: add -p flag to precompute hash valuesEmilio G. Cota
Precomputing the hash values allows us to perform more frequent accesses to the hash table, thereby reaching higher throughputs. We keep the old behaviour by default, since (1) we might confuse users if they measured a speedup without changing anything in the QHT implementation, and (2) benchmarking the hash function "on line" is also valuable.

2018-06-15qht: require a default comparison functionEmilio G. Cota
qht_lookup now uses the default cmp function. qht_lookup_custom is defined to retain the old behaviour, that is a cmp function is explicitly provided. qht_insert will gain use of the default cmp in the next patch. Note that we move qht_lookup_custom's @func to be the last argument, which makes the new qht_lookup as simple as possible.

2017-10-24tcg: define CF_PARALLEL and use it for TB hashing along with CF_COUNT_MASKEmilio G. Cota
This will enable us to decouple code translation from the value of parallel_cpus at any given time. It will also help us minimize TB flushes when generating code via EXCP_ATOMIC. Note that the declaration of parallel_cpus is brought to exec-all.h to be able to define there the "curr_cflags" inline. Signed-off-by: Emilio G.

2017-07-17exec: [tcg] Use different TBs according to the vCPU's dynamic tracing stateLluís Vilanova
Every vCPU now uses a separate set of TBs for each set of dynamic tracing event state values. Each set of TBs can be used by any number of vCPUs to maximize TB reuse when vCPUs have the same tracing state. This feature is later used by tracetool to optimize tracing of guest code events. The maximum number of TB sets is defined as 2^E, where E is the number of events that have the 'vcpu' property (their state is stored in CPUState->trace_dstate). For this to work, a change on the dynamic tracing state of a vCPU will force it to flush its virtual TB cache (which is only indexed by address), and fall back to the physical TB cache (which now contains the vCPU's dynamic tracing state as part of the hashing function).

2016-06-11qht: add qht-bench, a performance benchmarkEmilio G. Cota
This serves as a performance benchmark as well as a stress test for QHT. We can tweak quite a number of things, including the number of resize threads and how frequently resizes are triggered. A performance comparison of QHT vs CLHT[1] and ck_hs[2] using this same benchmark program can be found here: http://imgur.com/a/0Bms4 The tests are run on a 64-core AMD Opteron 6376, pinning threads to cores favoring same-socket cores. For each run, qht-bench is invoked with: $ tests/qht-bench -d $duration -n $n -u $u -g $range , where $duration is in seconds, $n is the number of threads, $u is the update rate (0.0 to 100.0), and $range is the number of keys. Note that ck_hs's performance drops significantly as writes go up, since it requires an external lock (I used a ck_spinlock) around every write. Also, note that CLHT instead of using a seqlock, relies on an allocator that does not ever return the same address during the same read-critical section. This gives it a slight performance advantage over QHT on read-heavy workloads, since the seqlock writes aren't there. [1] CLHT: https://github.com/LPD-EPFL/CLHT https://infoscience.epfl.ch/record/207109/files/ascy_asplos15.pdf [2] ck_hs: http://concurrencykit.org/ http://backtrace.io/blog/blog/2015/03/13/workload-specialization/ A few of those plots are shown in text here, since that site might not be online forever.
