27 *Polls each sched slot exactly once, hands any requests made by a newly
28 * done slave to the "request handler" plug-in function
29 *
30 *Any slots that need a virt procr assigned are given to the "schedule"
31 * plug-in function, which tries to assign a virt procr (slave) to it.
32 *
33 *When all slots needing a processor have been given to the schedule plug-in,
34 * a fraction of the procrs successfully scheduled are put into the
35 * work queue, then a continuation of this function is put in, then the rest
36 * of the virt procrs that were successfully scheduled.
37 *
38 *The first thing the continuation does is busy-wait until the previous
39 * animation completes. This is because an (unlikely) continuation may
40 * sneak through queue before previous continuation is done putting second
41 * part of scheduled slaves in, which is the only race condition.

45 /*May 29, 2010 -- birth a Master during init so that first core loop to
46 * start running gets it and does all the stuff for a newly born --
47 * from then on, will be doing continuation, but do suspension self
48 * directly at end of master loop
49 *So VMS__init just births the master virtual processor same way it births
50 * all the others -- then does any extra setup needed and puts it into the
51 * work queue.
52 *However means have to make masterEnv a global static volatile the same way
53 * did with readyToAnimateQ in core loop. -- for performance, put the
54 * jump to the core loop directly in here, and have it directly jump back.
55 *
56 *
57 *Aug 18, 2010 -- Going to a separate MasterVP for each core, to see if this
58 * avoids the suspected bug in the system stack that causes bizarre faults
59 * at random places in the system code.
60 *
61 *So, this function is coupled to each of the MasterVPs, -- meaning this
62 * function can't rely on a particular stack and frame -- each MasterVP that
63 * animates this function has a different one.
64 *
65 *At this point, the masterLoop does not write itself into the queue anymore,
66 * instead, the coreLoop acquires the masterLock when it has nothing to
67 * animate, and then animates its own masterLoop. However, still try to put
68 * several AppVPs into the queue to amortize the startup cost of switching
69 * to the MasterVP. Note, don't have to worry about latency of requests much
70 * because most requests generate work for same core -- only latency issue
71 * is case when other cores starved and one core's requests generate work
72 * for them -- so keep max in queue to 3 or 4..

274 /*This algorithm makes the common case fast. Make the coreloop passive,
275 * and show its progress. Make the stealer control a gate that coreloop
276 * has to pass.
277 *To avoid interference, only one stealer at a time. Use a global
278 * stealer-lock.
279 *
280 *The pattern is based on a gate -- stealer shuts the gate, then monitors
281 * to be sure any already past make it all the way out, before starting.
282 *So, have a "progress" measure just before the gate, then have two after it,
283 * one is in a "waiting room" outside the gate, the other is at the exit.
284 *Then, the stealer first shuts the gate, then checks the progress measure
285 * outside it, then looks to see if the progress measure at the exit is the
286 * same. If yes, it knows the protected area is empty 'cause no other way
287 * to get in and the last to get in also exited.
288 *If the progress measure at the exit is not the same, then the stealer goes
289 * into a loop checking both the waiting-area and the exit progress-measures
290 * until one of them shows the same as the measure outside the gate. Might
291 * as well re-read the measure outside the gate each go around, just to be
292 * sure. It is guaranteed that one of the two will eventually match the one
293 * outside the gate.
294 *
295 *Here's an informal proof of correctness:
296 *The gate can be closed at any point, and have only four cases:
297 * 1) coreloop made it past the gate-closing but not yet past the exit
298 * 2) coreloop made it past the pre-gate progress update but not yet past
299 * the gate,
300 * 3) coreloop is right before the pre-gate update
301 * 4) coreloop is past the exit and far from the pre-gate update.
302 *
303 * Covering the cases in reverse order,
304 * 4) is not a problem -- stealer will read pre-gate progress, see that it
305 * matches exit progress, and the gate is closed, so stealer can proceed.
306 * 3) stealer will read pre-gate progress just after coreloop updates it..
307 * so stealer goes into a loop until the coreloop causes wait-progress
308 * to match pre-gate progress, so then stealer can proceed
309 * 2) same as 3..
310 * 1) stealer reads pre-gate progress, sees that it's different than exit,
311 * so goes into loop until exit matches pre-gate, now it knows coreloop
312 * is not in protected and cannot get back in, so can proceed.
313 *
314 *Implementation for the stealer:
315 *
316 *First, acquire the stealer lock -- only cores with no work to do will
317 * compete to steal, so not a big performance penalty having only one --
318 * will rarely have multiple stealers in a system with plenty of work -- and
319 * in a system with little work, it doesn't matter.
320 *
321 *Note, have single-reader, single-writer pattern for all variables used to
322 * communicate between stealer and victims
323 *
324 *So, scan the queues of the core loops, until find non-empty. Each core
325 * has its own list that it scans. The list goes in order from closest to
326 * furthest core, so it steals first from close cores. Later can add
327 * taking info from the app about overlapping footprints, and scan all the
328 * others then choose work with the most footprint overlap with the contents
329 * of this core's cache.
330 *
331 *Now, have a victim want to take work from. So, shut the gate in that
332 * coreloop, by setting the "gate closed" var on its stack to TRUE.
333 *Then, read the core's pre-gate progress and compare to the core's exit
334 * progress.
335 *If same, can proceed to take work from the coreloop's queue. When done,
336 * write FALSE to gate closed var.
337 *If different, then enter a loop that reads the pre-gate progress, then
338 * compares to exit progress then to wait progress. When one of two
339 * matches, proceed. Take work from the coreloop's queue. When done,
340 * write FALSE to the gate closed var.
