429 Helgrind understands the Ada concept of Ada task dependencies and
430 terminations. See Ada Reference Manual section 9.3 "Task Dependence
431 - Termination of Tasks".
432 However, in some cases, the master of (terminated) tasks completes
433 only when the application exits. An example of this is dynamically
434 allocated tasks with an access type defined at Library Level.
435 By default, the state of such tasks in Helgrind will be 'exited but
436 join not done yet'. Many tasks in such a state are however causing
437 Helgrind CPU and memory to increase significantly.
438 VALGRIND_HG_GNAT_DEPENDENT_MASTER_JOIN can be used to indicate
439 to Helgrind that a not yet completed master has however already
440 'seen' the termination of a dependent : this is conceptually the
441 same as a pthread_join and causes the cleanup of the dependent
442 as done by Helgrind when a master completes.
443 This allows to avoid the overhead in helgrind caused by such tasks.
444 A typical usage for a master to indicate it has done conceptually a join
445 with a dependent task before the master completes is:
446 while not Dep_Task'Terminated loop
447 ... do whatever to wait for Dep_Task termination.
448 end loop;

466 /* A quite-broad set of annotations, as used in the ThreadSanitizer
467 project. This implementation aims to be a (source-level)
468 compatible implementation of the macros defined in:
470 http://code.google.com/p/data-race-test/source
471 /browse/trunk/dynamic_annotations/dynamic_annotations.h
473 (some of the comments below are taken from the above file)
475 The implementation here is very incomplete, and intended as a
476 starting point. Many of the macros are unimplemented. Rather than
477 allowing unimplemented macros to silently do nothing, they cause an
478 assertion. Intention is to implement them on demand.
480 The major use of these macros is to make visible to race detectors,
481 the behaviour (effects) of user-implemented synchronisation
482 primitives, that the detectors could not otherwise deduce from the
483 normal observation of pthread etc calls.
485 Some of the macros are no-ops in Helgrind. That's because Helgrind
486 is a pure happens-before detector, whereas ThreadSanitizer uses a
487 hybrid lockset and happens-before scheme, which requires more
488 accurate annotations for correct operation.
490 The macros are listed in the same order as in dynamic_annotations.h
491 (URL just above).
493 I should point out that I am less than clear about the intended
494 semantics of quite a number of them. Comments and clarifications
495 welcomed!

528 Create completely arbitrary happens-before edges between threads.
530 If threads T1 .. Tn all do ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_BEFORE(obj) and later
531 (w.r.t. some notional global clock for the computation) thread Tm
532 does ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_AFTER(obj), then Helgrind will regard all
533 memory accesses done by T1 .. Tn before the ..BEFORE.. call as
534 happening-before all memory accesses done by Tm after the
535 ..AFTER.. call. Hence Helgrind won't complain about races if Tm's
536 accesses afterwards are to the same locations as accesses before by
537 any of T1 .. Tn.
539 OBJ is a machine word (unsigned long, or void*), is completely
540 arbitrary, and denotes the identity of some synchronisation object
541 you're modelling.
543 You must do the _BEFORE call just before the real sync event on the
544 signaller's side, and _AFTER just after the real sync event on the
545 waiter's side.
547 If none of the rest of these macros make sense to you, at least
548 take the time to understand these two. They form the very essence
549 of describing arbitrary inter-thread synchronisation events to
550 Helgrind. You can get a long way just with them alone.
552 See also, extensive discussion on semantics of this in
553 https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=243935
555 ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_BEFORE_FORGET_ALL(obj) is interim until such time
556 as bug 243935 is fully resolved. It instructs Helgrind to forget
557 about any ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_BEFORE calls on the specified object, in
558 effect putting it back in its original state. Once in that state,
559 a use of ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_AFTER on it has no effect on the calling
560 thread.
562 An implementation may optionally release resources it has
563 associated with 'obj' when ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_BEFORE_FORGET_ALL(obj)
564 happens. Users are recommended to use
565 ANNOTATE_HAPPENS_BEFORE_FORGET_ALL to indicate when a
566 synchronisation object is no longer needed, so as to avoid
567 potential indefinite resource leaks.
