I've decided to do reentrant versions of the set allocators and I didn't
particularly like the invasiveness of allocating sets this way.
The old variable names were confusing ("target" winding comes from
"portal"?), and the comments were from when I really didn't understand
concepts like separating planes. While they weren't wrong, they were quite
inadequate and I want to write new ones.
This bypasses set_new, but completely removes the use of the global lock
from within RecursiveClusterFlow. This seems to give a small speedup: 203
seconds threaded.
This was testing an idea I had to remove the plane flips. It seems to have
been good for the initial plane orientation, but was a slight slowdown for
the pass-portal test. However, this makes the code a little easier to work
with for my idea on improving the algorithm itself.
Since the stack structure in the thread data is a linked list, move the
stack blocks off the program stack and into malloced memory. More
importantly, when the stack block is allocated, the mightsee working set is
allocated too, and as neither are freed, this greatly reduces contention
for the lock. Also, because the memory is kept, single threaded time for
gmsp3v2 dropped from 695s to 670s. Threaded is now about 207s (down from
350).
While using set operators was clearer, it was rather expensive (about 25s
for gmsp3v2). qfvis now completes the map in about 695s (single threaded).
About 15s faster than tyr for the same conditions (1 thread, level 4).
This is the second part of the separator search optimization from tyrutils
vis. With this, qfvis is getting close to tyrutils vis when
running single threaded (qfvis is suffering some nasty thread contention
and thus can't get below about 350 seconds with 4 threads). 808s vs 707s.
Interesting, it makes very little (maybe faster) difference to find all the
separators for levels 3 and 4. This might be due to the higher levels using
most of the planes to fully clip source away. Anyway, it makes the code a
little clearer (one function, one task).
I had forgotten to skip the refined tests when the sphere was entirely on
the relevant side of the plane. Now BasePortalVis for gmsp3v2 takes 11s on
my machine (it was 13 with the previous optimization and 15.9 before that).
Also, write some comments describing how BasePortalVis works.
Representing the side of the plane on which the sphere lies is much more
useful as more complicated tests can be done using just the one call.
-1: the sphere is entirely on the back side of the plane
0: the sphere is intersecting the plane
1: the sphere is entirely on the front side of the plane
It was supposed to be 2, but for some reason I neglected to set it when I
set up the options parsing. However, level 4 is the standard for production
maps, and it happens to be faster than level 2 (at least for gmsp3v2.bsp)
I think the reason I didn't think of that when I tried to improve qfvis's
performance many years ago is I just simply did not understand
ClipToSeparators. However, the difference caching the separators makes is
phenomenal. Before the change, single threaded qfvis would get stuck on one
particular portal for at least a day (I gave up waiting), but now even a
debug build will complete gmsp3v2.bsp in less than 12 minutes (4 threads on
my quad-core). And that's at level 2! Getting stuck for a day was at level
0.
Rather than prefixing free_ to the supplied name, suffix _freelist to the
supplied name. The biggest advantage of this is it allows the free-list to
be a structure member. It also cleans up the name-space a little.
While noticeably slower than the previous expanded set manipulation code,
this is much easier to read. I can worry about optimizing the set code when
I get qfvis behaving better.
I'd forgotten that ED_ConvertToPlist mangled light into light_lev and
single component angle values into a vector. This fixes much of the
breakage in qflight (but not the light levels)
This removes a lot of redundant code from qflight (though it does become
dependent of libQFgamecode *shrug*). The nice thing is qflight now uses the
exact same code to load entities as does the server.
Something is funny with Ubuntu such that -ldl needs to be specifically
added even though QFutil's .la specifies it. I don't know if it's a libtool
issue or not, but this does work.
More will probably be necessary, but this was sufficient to get prover to
the point where qfcc segged building qwaq (0.7.2).
type_obj_class is no longer a class, so its ivars are not stored in
type_obj_class.t.class->ivars but rather type_obj_class.t.symtab.
This fixes the segfault Spirit and Randy were experiencing.
In passing, correct the unneeded emission of meta class ivars for non-root
classes. This should make for much smaller progs that use classes.
MOVEP's opc itself is always known and used, whether it's a constant
pointer or variable doesn't matter. This fixes the lost pointer calculation
for va_list.list[j] = object_from_plist (item);
Dead nodes are those that generate unused values (unassigned leaf nodes,
expressions or destinationless move(p) nodes). The revoval is done by the
flow analysis code (via the dags code) so that any pre and post removal
flow analysis and manipulation may be done (eg, available expressions).
assign_expr mangles the destination expression for dereferenced
assignments into something that is invalid as an lvalue, so simply use
new_binary_expr with the same opcode.
It turns out expression trees are (mostly?) valid DAGs, so all edges being
constrained works, though the graphs get a little tall (but easier to read).
