Well... it could be done better, but this works for now assuming it's in
/usr/include (and it's correct for mxe builts). Does need proper
autoconfiscation, though.
The portal flow stack nodes contain a simd vector, which requires
16-byte alignment. However, on 32-bit Windows, malloc returns 8-byte
aligned memory, leading to eventual segfaults. Since pstack_t is 48
bytes on 32-bit systems, it fits nicely into a 64-byte aligned cache
line (or two on 64-bit systems due to being 80 bytes).
For most (if not all) maps. The heapsort is needed only if the clustered
leafs are not contiguous, but most bsp compilers output contiguous leaf
clusters, so is just a bit of protection. The difference isn't really
noticeable on a fast machine, but no point in doing more work than
necessary.
Now that only 3852 clusters need to be checked for each cluster, fat-pvs
construction for ad_tears completes in about 0.7s, most of which seems
to be loading, conversion, compression and writing. O(N^3) cuts both
ways (hurts like crazy when N increases, does wonders when N decreases,
especially by a factor of 25). And then throw in improved cache
performance...
I suspect having an off-line compiler is still useful, but even if
qfvis's implementation never actually gets used, if cluster
reconstruction is put in the engine, large maps will be feasible even
for quakeworld. Just the reduced memory requirements alone will be a
huge benefit (~3GB down to 1.8MB).
This is only the first half (vertical) in that the vis bits are still
for the leafs rather than the clusters, but ad_tears goes from 500s to
7s for calculating the fat pvs (3852 clusters).
While this doesn't give as much of a boost as does basic sphere culling
(since it's just culling sphere tests), it took ad_tears' base vis from
1000s to 720s on my machine.
This removes the last of the arbitrary limits from qfvis. The goal is
not so much supporting crazy maps, but more about better data usage
(cluster_t is now 24 (or 16) bytes instead of 1048 (or 528). And
passages isn't used (yet?)...
It turns out cmem is not so good for many large allocations (probably a
bug in handling the blocks), but was really meant for lots of little
churning allocations anyway. After an analysis of winding lifetimes, it
became clear that the hunk allocator would work very well. The base
windings are allocated from a global hunk (currently 1GB, plenty for
even ad_tears), and ephemeral windings are allocated from a per-thread
hunk of 1MB (seems to be way more than enough: gmsp3v2 uses a maximum of
only 56064 bytes, and ad_tears got through 30% before I gave up on it).
Any speed difference (for gmsp3v2) seems to be lost in the noise: still
completing in 38.4s on my machine.
The output fat-pvs data is the *difference* between the base pvs and fat
pvs. This currently makes for about 64kB savings for marcher.bsp, and
about 233MB savings for ad_tears.bsp (or about 50% (470.7MB->237.1MB)).
I expect using utf-8 encoding for the run lengths to make for even
bigger savings (the second output fat-pvs leaf of marcher.bsp is all 0s,
or 6 bytes in the file, which would reduce to 3 bytes using utf-8).
After seeing set_size and thinking it redundant (thought it returned the
capacity of the set until I checked), I realized set_count would be a
much better name (set_count (node->successors) in qfcc does make much
more sense).
Extremely large maps take a very long time to process their PVS sets for
PHS or shadows, so having an off-line compiler seems like a good idea.
The data isn't written out yet, and the fat pvs code may not be optimal
for cache access, but it gets through ad_tears in about 500s (12
threads, compared to 2100s single-threaded in the qw server).
This reduces the overhead needed to manage the memory blocks as the
blocks are guaranteed to be page-aligned. Also, the superblock is now
alllocated from within one of the memory blocks it manages. While this
does slightly reduce the available cachelines within the first block (by
one or two depending on 32 vs 64 bit pointers), it removes the need for
an extra memory allocation (probably via malloc) for the superblock.
When moving an identifier label from one node to another, the first node
must be evaluated before the second node, which the edge guarantees.
However, code for swapping two variables
t = a; a = b; b = t;
creates a dependency cycle. The solution is to create a new leaf node
for the source operand of the assignment. This fixes the swap.r test
without pessimizing postop code.
This takes care of the core problem in #3, but there is still room for
improvement in that the load/store can be combined into a move.
This reverts commit 2fcda44ab0.
Killing the node is not the correcgt answer as it blocks many
optimization opportunities. The correct answer is adding edges to
describe the temporal dependencies. Of course, this breaks the swap.r
test.
In order to correctly handle swap-style code
{ t = a; a = b; b = t; }
edges need to be created for each of the assignments moving an
identifier lable, but the dag must remain acyclic (the above example
wants to create a cycle). Having the reachable nodes recorded makes
checking for potential loops a quick operation.
Identifiers can be constants. I don't remember quite what it fixed other
than some bogus kill relations in the dags (which might have caused
issues later).
If the src type is not a class, there is no inheritance chain to walk.
Fixes a segfault when returning self after a syntax error in the
following:
+(EditStatus *)withRect:(Rect)rect
{
return [[[self alloc] initWithRect:rect]:
}
-setCursorMode:(CursorMode)mode
{
cursorMode = mode;
return self;
}
GCC does a fairly nice job of producing code for vector types when the
hardware doesn't support SIMD, but it seems to break certain math
optimization rules due to excess precision (?). Still, it works well
enough for the core engine, but may not be well suited to the tools.
However, so far, only qfvis uses vector types (and it's not tested yet),
and tools should probably be used on suitable machines anyway (not
forces, of course).
