<h1>6.6. Implicit Threading and Language-based Threads<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#implicit-threading-and-language-based-threads" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h1>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The POSIX thread library is a powerful and robust mechanism for concurrent
|
|||
|
|
systems programming. However, the library places a significant burden on the
|
|||
|
|
programmer to ensure that the implementation avoids race conditions and other
|
|||
|
|
bugs. In <a class="reference external" href="SynchProblemsOverview.html">Synchronization Problems</a>, we will
|
|||
|
|
examine common patterns that emerge in these types of programs and how to avoid subtle errors.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Since threads were first introduced, language designers have explored a number
|
|||
|
|
of techniques that reduce the complexity and responsibility of managing threads.
|
|||
|
|
This section will examine three different approaches for making multithreading
|
|||
|
|
easier. The first approach is a general style called <a class="reference internal" href="Glossary.html#term-implicit-threading"><span class="xref std std-term">implicit threading</span></a>
|
|||
|
|
which aims to hide the management of threads as much as possible. The second
|
|||
|
|
approach is to treat threads as objects in languages like Java and Python. The
|
|||
|
|
third (and most modern) approach is to design the language around the concept of
|
|||
|
|
concurrency as a fundamental feature.</p>

<h2>6.6.1. Implicit Threading with OpenMP<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#implicit-threading-with-openmp" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Implicit threading is the use of libraries or other language support to hide the
|
|||
|
|
management of threads. In the context of C, the most common implicit threading
|
|||
|
|
library is <a class="reference internal" href="Glossary.html#term-openmp"><span class="xref std std-term">OpenMP</span></a>. OpenMP uses the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">#pragma</span></code> compiler directive to
|
|||
|
|
detect and insert additional library code at compile time. As an example,
|
|||
|
|
consider the prime number calculator from the Extended Examples.
|
|||
|
|
<a class="reference external" href="ImplicitThreads.html#cl6-17">Code Listing 6.17</a> shows the OpenMP equivalent.</p>

<p>With implicit threading, the focus of the programmer is on writing the algorithm
|
|||
|
|
rather than the multithreading. The OpenMP library itself takes care of managing
|
|||
|
|
the threads. Specifically, the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">#pragma</span></code> line indicates that OpenMP (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">omp</span></code>)
|
|||
|
|
should parallelize a for-loop (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">parallel</span> <span class="pre">for</span></code>) with some constraints on the
|
|||
|
|
variables. The OpenMP implementation on that system will then inject code to
|
|||
|
|
perform the thread creation and join.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>OpenMP in C is built on top of the pthread library. As such, any code that can
|
|||
|
|
be written using OpenMP can be converted into a more verbose pthread equivalent.
|
|||
|
|
However, the disadvantage of OpenMP is that it only works for certain types of
|
|||
|
|
tasks. There are many types of programs, such as the keyboard listener example,
|
|||
|
|
that can be implemented in pthreads but not OpenMP.</p>

<h2>6.6.2. Threads as Objects<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#threads-as-objects" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In other languages, traditional object-oriented languages provide explicit
|
|||
|
|
multithreading support with threads as objects. In these types of languages,
|
|||
|
|
classes are written to either extend a thread class or implement a corresponding
|
|||
|
|
interface. This style resembles the pthread approach, as the code is written
|
|||
|
|
with explicit thread management. However, the encapsulation of data within the
|
|||
|
|
classes and additional synchronization features simplify the task.</p>

<h3>6.6.2.1. Java Threads<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#java-threads" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Java provides both a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Thread</span></code> class and a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Runnable</span></code> interface that can be
|
|||
|
|
used, as shown in <a class="reference external" href="ImplicitThreads.html#cl6-18">Code Listing 6.18</a>. Both require implementing a
|
|||
|
|
public void <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">run()</span></code> method that defines the entry point of the thread. Once an
|
|||
|
|
instance of the object is allocated, the thread can be started by invoking the
|
|||
|
|
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">start()</span></code> method on it. As with pthreads, starting the thread is asynchronous,
|
|||
|
|
so the timing of the execution is nondeterministic.</p>

<h3>6.6.2.2. Python Threads<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#python-threads" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
|

|
|
<p><a class="reference external" href="ImplicitThreads.html#cl6-19">Code Listing 6.19</a> demonstrates two mechanisms for multithreading in
|
|||
|
|
Python. One approach is similar to the pthread style, where a function name is
|
|||
|
|
passed to a library method <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">thread.start_new_thread()</span></code>. This approach is very
|
|||
|
|
limited and lacks the ability to join or terminate the thread after it starts. A
|
|||
|
|
more flexible technique is to use the threading module to define a class that
|
|||
|
|
extends threading. Similar to the Java approach, the class must have a <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">run()</span></code>
|
|||
|
|
method that provides the thread’s entry point. Once an object is instantiated
|
|||
|
|
from this class, it can be explicitly started and joined later.</p>

<h2>6.6.3. Concurrency as Language Design<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#concurrency-as-language-design" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h2>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Languages such as C, Java, and Python were all designed before <a class="reference internal" href="Glossary.html#term-multicore"><span class="xref std std-term">multicore</span></a>
|
|||
|
|
architectures rose to prominence in the early 2000s. As such, multithreading
|
|||
|
|
support in these languages was added as a supplement to the language, rather
|
|||
|
|
than a core feature. These languages were originally designed for a
|
|||
|
|
uniprocessing procedural or object-oriented paradigm. As a result, the memory
|
|||
|
|
models that underlie these languages are not adequate to prevent race
|
|||
|
|
conditions. The multithreading libraries had to provide additional features that
|
|||
|
|
allowed programmers to synchronize access to shared data. Or, put another way,
|
|||
|
|
programmers were forced to do extra work to make their programs work correctly.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Newer programming languages have avoided this problem by building assumptions of
|
|||
|
|
concurrent execution directly into the language design itself. For instance, Go
|
|||
|
|
combines a trivial implicit threading technique (goroutines) with channels, a
|
|||
|
|
well-defined form of message-passing communication. Rust adopts an explicit
|
|||
|
|
threading approach similar to pthreads. However, Rust has very strong memory
|
|||
|
|
protections that require no additional work by the programmer.</p>

<h3>6.6.3.1. Goroutines<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#goroutines" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
|
|||
|
|
<p>The Go language includes a trivial mechanism for implicit threading: place the
|
|||
|
|
keyword go before a function call. In <a class="reference external" href="ImplicitThreads.html#cl6-20">Code Listing 6.20</a>, the line
|
|||
|
|
go <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">keyboard_listener(messages)</span></code> launches a new thread that will execute the
|
|||
|
|
keyboard listener function. The new thread is passed a connection to a
|
|||
|
|
message-passing <em>channel</em>. Then, the main thread calls
|
|||
|
|
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">success</span> <span class="pre">:=</span> <span class="pre"><-messages</span></code>, which performs a blocking read on the channel. Once
|
|||
|
|
the user has entered the correct guess of 7, the keyboard listener thread writes
|
|||
|
|
to the channel, allowing the main thread to progress.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>Channels and <a class="reference internal" href="Glossary.html#term-goroutine"><span class="xref std std-term">goroutines</span></a> are core parts of the Go language,
|
|||
|
|
which was designed under the assumption that most programs would be
|
|||
|
|
multithreaded. This design choice streamlines the development model, allowing
|
|||
|
|
the language itself to bear the responsibility for managing the threads and scheduling.</p>

<h3>6.6.3.2. Rust Concurrency<a class="headerlink" href="ImplicitThreads.html#rust-concurrency" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
|

|
|
<p>Rust is another language that has been created in recent years, with concurrency
|
|||
|
|
as a central design feature. <a class="reference external" href="ImplicitThreads.html#cl6-21">Code Listing 6.21</a> illustrates the use
|
|||
|
|
of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">thread::spawn()</span></code> to create a new thread, which can later be joined by
|
|||
|
|
invoking <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">join()</span></code> on it. The argument to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">thread::spawn()</span></code> beginning at the
|
|||
|
|
<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">||</span></code> is known as a closure, which can be thought of as an anonymous function.
|
|||
|
|
That is, the child thread here will print the value of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">x</span></code>.</p>

|
<p>However, there is a subtle point in this code that is central to Rust’s design.
|
|||
|
|
Within the new thread (executing the code in the closure), the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">x</span></code> variable is
|
|||
|
|
distinct from the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">x</span></code> in other parts of this code. Rust enforces a very strict
|
|||
|
|
memory model (known as <em>ownership</em>) which prevents multiple threads from
|
|||
|
|
accessing the same memory. In this example, the move keyword indicates that the
|
|||
|
|
spawned thread will receive a separate copy of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">x</span></code> for its own use. Regardless
|
|||
|
|
of the scheduling of the two threads, the main and child threads cannot
|
|||
|
|
interfere with each other’s modifications of <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">x</span></code>, because they are distinct
|
|||
|
|
copies. It is impossible for the two threads to share access to the same memory.</p>
|
|||
|
|
<p>In this small example, the issue of ownership may not seem to be a big deal.
|
|||
|
|
However, if you learn more about Rust and concurrency, you’ll quickly realize
|
|||
|
|
that it is. Ownership makes Rust very unique and makes it a very powerful
|
|||
|
|
language for concurrent programming. The crux is that ownership completely
|
|||
|
|
eliminates several types of race conditions, since it is impossible for multiple
|
|||
|
|
threads to share the same memory location. Furthermore, it achieves this memory
|
|||
|
|
safety <strong>without imposing any run-time performance penalty</strong>. Ownership
|
|||
|
|
constraints are checked and enforced at compile-time. This combination of memory
|
|||
|
|
safety and efficient performance gives Rust a significant advantage over other
|
|||
|
|
languages in regard to multithreading.</p>
