6560692c67 Improve EventCount used by the non-blocking threadpool.
The current algorithm requires threads to commit/cancel waiting in order
they called Prewait. Spinning caused by that serialization can consume
lots of CPU time on some workloads. Restructure the algorithm to not
require that serialization and remove spin waits from Commit/CancelWait.
Note: this reduces max number of threads from 2^16 to 2^14 to leave
more space for ABA counter (which is now 22 bits).
Implementation details are explained in comments.

93f9988a7e A few small fixes to a) prevent throwing in ctors and dtors of the threading code, and b) supporting matrix exponential on platforms with 113 bits of mantissa for long doubles. 2018-11-09 14:15:32 -08:00

007f165c69 bug #1598: Let MaxSizeVector respect alignment of objects and add a unit test

8b3d9ed081 Use padding instead of alignment attribute, which MaxSizeVector does not respect. This leads to undefined behavior and hard-to-trace bugs. 2018-09-05 11:20:06 -07:00

15d4f515e2 Use plain_assert in destructors to avoid throwing in CXX11 tests where main.h owerwrites eigen_assert with a throwing version. 2018-08-14 12:17:46 -07:00

13df3441ae Use MaxSizeVector instead of std::vector: xcode sometimes assumes that std::vector allocates aligned memory and therefore issues aligned instruction to initialize it. This can result in random crashes when compiling with AVX instructions enabled. 2016-09-02 19:25:47 -07:00

c3c8ad8046 Align the first element of the Waiter struct instead of padding it. This reduces its memory footprint a bit while achieving the goal of preventing false sharing 2016-06-02 21:17:41 -07:00
