HPX V1.5.0 (Sep 02, 2020)

General changes

The main focus of this release is on APIs and C++20 conformance. We have added many new C++20 features and adapted multiple algorithms to be fully C++20 conformant. As part of the modularization we have begun specifying the public API of HPX in terms of headers and functionality, and aligning it more closely to the C++ standard. All non-distributed modules are now in place, along with an experimental option to completely disable distributed features in HPX. We have also added experimental asynchronous MPI and CUDA executors. Lastly this release introduces CMake targets for depending projects, performance improvements, and many bug fixes.

  • We have added the C++20 features hpx::jthread and hpx::stop_token. hpx::condition_variable_any now exposes new functions supporting hpx::stop_token.

  • We have added hpx::stable_sort based on Francisco Tapia’s implementation.

  • We have adapted existing synchronization primitives to be fully conformant C++20: hpx::barrier, hpx::latch, hpx::counting_semaphore, and hpx::binary_semaphore.

  • We have started using customization point objects (CPOs) to make the corresponding algorithms fully conformant to C++20 as well as to make algorithm extension easier for the user. all_of/any_of/none_of, copy, count, destroy, equal, fill, find, for_each, generate, mismatch, move, reduce, transform_reduce are using those CPOs (all in namespace hpx). We also have adapted their corresponding hpx::ranges versions to be conforming to C++20 in this release.

  • We have adapted support for co_await to C++20, in addition to hpx::future it now also supports hpx::shared_future. We have also added allocator support for futures returned by co_return. It is no longer in the experimental namespace.

  • We added serialization support for std::variant and std::tuple.

  • result_of and is_callable are now deprecated and replaced by invoke_result and is_invocable to conform to C++20.

  • We continued with the modularization, making it easier for us to add the new experimental HPX_WITH_DISTRIBUTED_RUNTIME CMake option (see below) . An significant amount of headers have been deprecated. We adapted the namespaces and headers we could to be closer to the standard ones (Public API). Depending code should still compile, however warnings are now generated instructing to change the include statements accordingly.

  • It is now possible to have a basic CUDA support including a helper function to get a future from a CUDA stream and target handling. They are available under the hpx::cuda::experimental namespace and they can be enabled with the -DHPX_WITH_ASYNC_CUDA=ON CMake option.

  • We added a new hpx::mpi::experimental namespace for getting futures from an asynchronous MPI call and a new minimal MPI executor hpx::mpi::experimental::executor. These can be enabled with the -DHPX_WITH_ASYNC_MPI=On CMake option.

  • A polymorphic executor has been implemented to reduce compile times as a function accepting executors can potentially be instantiated only once instead of multiple times with different executors. It accepts the function signature as a template argument. It needs to be constructed from any other executor. Please note, that the function signatures that can be scheduled using then_execute, bulk_sync_execute, bulk_async_execute and bulk_then_execute are slightly different (See the comment in PR #4514 for more details).

  • The underlying executor of block_executor has been updated to a newer one.

  • We have added a parameter to auto_chunk_size to control the amount of iterations to measure.

  • All executor parameter hooks can now be exposed through the executor itself. This will allow to deprecate the .with() functionality on execution policies in the future. This is also a first step towards simplifying our executor APIs in preparation for the upcoming C++23 executors (senders/receivers).

  • We have moved all of the existing APIs related to resiliency into the namespace hpx::resiliency::experimental. Please note this is a breaking change without backwards-compatibility option. We have converted all of those APIs to be based on customization point objects. Two new executors have been added to enable easy integration of the existing resiliency features with other facilities (like the parallel algorithms): replay_executor and replicate_executor.

  • We have added performance counters type information (aggregating, monotonically increasing, average count, average timer, etc.).

  • HPX threads are now re-scheduled on the same worker thread they were suspended on to avoid cache misses from moving from one thread to the other. This behavior doesn’t prevent the thread from being stolen, however.

  • We have added a new configuration option hpx.exception_verbosity to allow to control the level of verbosity of the exceptions (3 levels available).

  • broadcast_to, broadcast_from, scatter_to and scatter_from have been added to the collectives, modernization of gather_here and gather_there with futures taken by rvalue references. See the breaking change on all_to_all in the next section. None of the collectives need supporting macros anymore (e.g. specifying the data types used for a collective operation using HPX_REGISTER_ALLGATHER and similar is not needed anymore).

  • New API functions have been added: a) to get the number of cores which are idle (hpx::get_idle_core_count) and b) returning a bitmask representing the currently idle cores (hpx::get_idle_core_mask).

  • We have added an experimental option to only enable the local runtime, you can disable the distributed runtime with HPX_WITH_DISTRIBUTED_RUNTIME=OFF. You can also enable the local runtime by using the --hpx:local runtime option.

  • We fixed task annotations for actions.

  • The alias hpx::promise to hpx::lcos::promise is now deprecated. You can use hpx::lcos::promise directly instead. hpx::promise will refer to the local-only promise in the future.

  • We have added a prepare_checkpoint API function that calculates the amount of necessary buffer space for a particular set of arguments checkpointed.

  • We have added hpx::upgrade_lock and hpx::upgrade_to_unique_lock, which make hpx::shared_mutex (and similar) usable in more flexible ways.

  • We have changed the CMake targets exposed to the user, it now includes HPX::hpx, HPX::wrap_main (int main as the first HPX thread of the application, see Starting the HPX runtime), HPX::plugin, HPX::component. The CMake variables HPX_INCLUDE_DIRS and HPX_LIBRARIES are deprecated and will be removed in a future release, you should now link directly to the HPX::hpx CMake target.

  • A new example is demonstrating how to create and use a wrapping executor (quickstart/executor_with_thread_hooks.cpp)

  • A new example is demonstrating how to disable thread stealing during the execution of parallel algorithms (quickstart/disable_thread_stealing_executor.cpp)

  • We now require for our CMake build system configuration files to be formatted using cmake-format.

  • We have removed more dependencies on various Boost libraries.

  • We have added an experimental option enabling unity builds of HPX using the -DHPX_WITH_UNITY_BUILD=On CMake option.

  • Many bug fixes.

Breaking changes

  • HPX now requires a C++14 capable compiler. We have set the HPX C++ standard automatically to C++14 and if it needs to be set explicitly, it should be specified through the CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD setting as mandated by CMake. The HPX_WITH_CXX* variables are now deprecated and will be removed in the future.

  • Building and using HPX is now supported only when using CMake V3.13 or later, Boost V1.64 or newer, and when compiling with clang V5, gcc V7, or VS2019, or later. Other compilers might still work but have not been tested thoroughly.

  • We have added a hpx::init_params struct to pass parameters for HPX initialization e.g. the resource partitioner callback to initialize thread pools (Using the resource partitioner).

  • The all_to_all algorithm is renamed to all_gather, and the new all_to_all algorithm is not compatible with the old one.

  • We have moved all of the existing APIs related to resiliency into the namespace hpx::resiliency::experimental.
