ROOT::TProcessExecutor Class Reference

This class provides a simple interface to execute the same task multiple times in parallel, possibly with different arguments every time.

ROOT::TProcessExecutor::Map

This class inherits its interfaces from ROOT::TExecutor
. The two possible usages of the Map method are:

• Map(F func, unsigned nTimes): func is executed nTimes with no arguments
• Map(F func, T& args): func is executed on each element of the collection of arguments args

For either signature, func is executed as many times as needed by a pool of fNWorkers workers; the number of workers can be passed to the constructor or set via SetNWorkers. It typically defaults to the number of cores.
A collection containing the result of each execution is returned.
Note: the user is responsible for the deletion of any object that might be created upon execution of func, returned objects included: ROOT::TProcessExecutor never deletes what it returns, it simply forgets it.
Note: that the usage of ROOT::TProcessExecutor::Map is indicated only when the task to be executed takes more than a few seconds, otherwise the overhead introduced by Map will outrun the benefits of parallel execution on most machines.

Parameters

func	a callable object, such as a lambda expression, an std::function, a functor object or a function that takes zero arguments (for the first signature) or one (for the second signature).
args	a standard vector, a ROOT::TSeq of integer type or an initializer list for the second signature. An integer only for the first.

Note: in cases where the function to be executed takes more than zero/one argument but all are fixed except zero/one, the function can be wrapped in a lambda or via std::bind to give it the right signature.
Note: the user should take care of initializing random seeds differently in each process (e.g. using the process id in the seed). Otherwise several parallel executions might generate the same sequence of pseudo-random numbers.

Return value:

An std::vector. The elements in the container will be the objects returned by func.

Examples:

root[] ROOT::TProcessExecutor pool; auto hists = pool.Map(CreateHisto, 10);
root[] ROOT::TProcessExecutor pool(2); auto squares = pool.Map([](int a) { return a*a; }, {1,2,3});

ROOT::TProcessExecutor::MapReduce

This set of methods behaves exactly like Map, but takes an additional function as a third argument. This function is applied to the set of objects returned by the corresponding Map execution to "squash" them into a single object.

Examples:

root[] ROOT::TProcessExecutor pool; auto ten = pool.MapReduce([]() { return 1; }, 10, [](const std::vector<int> &v) { return std::accumulate(v.begin(), v.end(), 0); })
root[] ROOT::TProcessExecutor pool; auto hist = pool.MapReduce(CreateAndFillHists, 10, PoolUtils::ReduceObjects);

Broadcast() [1/4]

template<class T >

unsigned TMPClient::Broadcast ( unsigned code, const std::vector< T > & args )

inherited

Send a message with a different object to each server.

Sockets can either be in an "active" or "non-active" state. This method activates all the sockets through which the client is connected to the workers, and deactivates them when a message is sent to the corresponding worker. This way the sockets pertaining to workers who have been left idle will be the only ones in the active list (TSocket::GetMonitor()->GetListOfActives()) after execution.

Parameters

code	the code of the message to send (e.g. EMPCode)
args	a vector containing the different messages to be sent. If the size of the vector is smaller than the number of workers, a message will be sent only to the first args.size() workers. If the size of the args vector is bigger than the number of workers, only the first fNWorkers arguments will be sent.

Returns

the number of messages successfully sent

Definition at line 73 of file TMPClient.h.

Broadcast() [2/4]

template<class T >

unsigned TMPClient::Broadcast ( unsigned code, std::initializer_list< T > & args )

inherited

Send a message with a different object to each server.

See TMPClient::Broadcast(unsigned code, const std::vector<T> &args) for more informations.

Definition at line 100 of file TMPClient.h.

Broadcast() [3/4]

template<class T >

unsigned TMPClient::Broadcast ( unsigned code, T obj, unsigned nMessages = 0 )

inherited

Send a message containing code and obj to each worker, up to a maximum number of nMessages workers.

See Broadcast(unsigned code, unsigned nMessages) for more informations.

Parameters

code	the code of the message to send (e.g. EMPCode)
obj	the object to send
nMessages	the maximum number of messages to send. If nMessages == 0, send a message to every worker.

Returns

the number of messages successfully sent

Definition at line 120 of file TMPClient.h.

Broadcast() [4/4]

unsigned TMPClient::Broadcast ( unsigned code, unsigned nMessages = 0 )

inherited

Send a message with the specified code to at most nMessages workers.

Sockets can either be in an "active" or "non-active" state. This method activates all the sockets through which the client is connected to the workers, and deactivates them when a message is sent to the corresponding worker. This way the sockets pertaining to workers who have been left idle will be the only ones in the active list (TSocket::GetMonitor()->GetListOfActives()) after execution.

Parameters

code	the code to send (e.g. EMPCode)
nMessages	the maximum number of messages to send. If nMessages == 0 || nMessage > fNWorkers, send a message to every worker.

Returns

the number of messages successfully sent

Definition at line 253 of file TMPClient.cxx.

Collect()

template<class T >

void ROOT::TProcessExecutor::Collect ( std::vector< T > & reslist )

private

Listen for messages sent by the workers and call the appropriate handler function.

TProcessExecutor::HandlePoolCode is called on messages with a code < 1000 and TMPClient::HandleMPCode is called on messages with a code >= 1000.

Definition at line 412 of file TProcessExecutor.hxx.

DeActivate()

void TMPClient::DeActivate ( TSocket * s )

inherited

DeActivate a certain socket.

This does not remove it from the monitor: it will be reactivated by the next call to Broadcast() (or possibly other methods that are specified to do so).
A socket should be DeActivated when the corresponding worker is done for now and we want to stop listening to this worker's socket. If the worker is done forever, Remove() should be used instead.

Parameters

s	the socket to be deactivated

Fork()

bool TMPClient::Fork ( TMPWorker & server )

inherited

This method forks the ROOT session into fNWorkers children processes.

The ROOT sessions spawned in this way will not have graphical capabilities and will not read from standard input, but will be connected to the original (interactive) session through TSockets. The children processes' PIDs are added to the fWorkerPids vector. The parent session can then communicate with the children using the Broadcast and MPSend methods, and receive messages through MPRecv.

Parameters

server

A pointer to an instance of the class that will take control of the subprocesses after forking. Applications should implement their own class inheriting from TMPWorker. Behaviour can be customized overriding TMPWorker::HandleInput.

Returns

true if Fork succeeded, false otherwise

HandleMPCode()

void TMPClient::HandleMPCode ( MPCodeBufPair & msg, TSocket * s )

inherited

Handle messages containing an EMPCode.

This method should be called upon receiving a message with a code >= 1000 (i.e. EMPCode). It handles the most generic types of messages.
Classes inheriting from TMPClient should implement a similar method to handle message codes specific to the application they're part of.

Parameters

msg	the MPCodeBufPair returned by a MPRecv call
s	a pointer to the socket from which the message has been received is passed. This way HandleMPCode knows which socket to reply on.
