Module Picos_mux_multififo
Source
Basic multi-threaded effects based Picos
compatible scheduler for OCaml 5.
This scheduler uses a queue per thread to implement a mostly FIFO scheduler. If a thread runs out of fibers to run, it will try to take a fiber from the queues of other threads, which means that fibers can move from one thread to another. This scheduler also gives priority to fibers woken up due to being canceled.
🐌 Due to mostly FIFO scheduling this scheduler performs poorly on highly parallel workloads.
ℹ️ See Picos_std_fifos
for a single-threaded variation of this scheduler.
ℹ️ This scheduler implementation is mostly meant as an example and for use in testing libraries implemented in Picos
.
⚠️ This scheduler uses Picos_io_select
internally. If running multiple threads that each run this scheduler, Picos_io_select.configure
must be called by the main thread before creating other threads.
Represents a shared context for fifo runners.
context ()
creates a new context for randomized runners. The context should be consumed by a call of run ~context ...
.
The optional quota
argument defaults to Int.max_int
and determines the number of effects a fiber is allowed to perform before it is forced to yield.
runner_on_this_thread context
starts a runner on the current thread to run fibers on the context. The runner returns when run ~context ...
returns.
run_fiber fiber main
runs the main
program as the specified fiber
and returns after main
and all of the fibers spawned by main
have returned.
run main
is equivalent to calling run_fiber
with a freshly created fiber and main
wrapped to capture the result of main
.
The optional forbid
argument defaults to false
and determines whether propagation of cancelation is initially allowed.
