/**
* A {@link ForkJoinTask} with a completion action performed when
* triggered and there are no remaining pending
* actions. CountedCompleters are in general more robust in the
* presence of subtask stalls and blockage than are other forms of
* ForkJoinTasks, but are less intuitive to program. Uses of
* CountedCompleter are similar to those of other completion based
* components (such as {@link java.nio.channels.CompletionHandler})
* except that multiple pending completions may be necessary
* to trigger the completion action {@link #onCompletion}, not just one.
* Unless initialized otherwise, the {@linkplain #getPendingCount pending
* count} starts at zero, but may be (atomically) changed using
* methods {@link #setPendingCount}, {@link #addToPendingCount}, and
* {@link #compareAndSetPendingCount}. Upon invocation of {@link
* #tryComplete}, if the pending action count is nonzero, it is
* decremented; otherwise, the completion action is performed, and if
* this completer itself has a completer, the process is continued
* with its completer. As is the case with related synchronization
* components such as {@link java.util.concurrent.Phaser Phaser} and
* {@link java.util.concurrent.Semaphore Semaphore}, these methods
* affect only internal counts; they do not establish any further
* internal bookkeeping. In particular, the identities of pending
* tasks are not maintained. As illustrated below, you can create
* subclasses that do record some or all pending tasks or their
* results when needed. As illustrated below, utility methods
* supporting customization of completion traversals are also
* provided. However, because CountedCompleters provide only basic
* synchronization mechanisms, it may be useful to create further
* abstract subclasses that maintain linkages, fields, and additional
* support methods appropriate for a set of related usages.
*
* A concrete CountedCompleter class must define method {@link
* #compute}, that should in most cases (as illustrated below), invoke
* {@code tryComplete()} once before returning. The class may also
* optionally override method {@link #onCompletion} to perform an
* action upon normal completion, and method {@link
* #onExceptionalCompletion} to perform an action upon any exception.
*
*
CountedCompleters most often do not bear results, in which case
* they are normally declared as {@code CountedCompleter}, and
* will always return {@code null} as a result value. In other cases,
* you should override method {@link #getRawResult} to provide a
* result from {@code join(), invoke()}, and related methods. In
* general, this method should return the value of a field (or a
* function of one or more fields) of the CountedCompleter object that
* holds the result upon completion. Method {@link #setRawResult} by
* default plays no role in CountedCompleters. It is possible, but
* rarely applicable, to override this method to maintain other
* objects or fields holding result data.
*
* A CountedCompleter that does not itself have a completer (i.e.,
* one for which {@link #getCompleter} returns {@code null}) can be
* used as a regular ForkJoinTask with this added functionality.
* However, any completer that in turn has another completer serves
* only as an internal helper for other computations, so its own task
* status (as reported in methods such as {@link ForkJoinTask#isDone})
* is arbitrary; this status changes only upon explicit invocations of
* {@link #complete}, {@link ForkJoinTask#cancel}, {@link
* ForkJoinTask#completeExceptionally} or upon exceptional completion
* of method {@code compute}. Upon any exceptional completion, the
* exception may be relayed to a task's completer (and its completer,
* and so on), if one exists and it has not otherwise already
* completed. Similarly, cancelling an internal CountedCompleter has
* only a local effect on that completer, so is not often useful.
*
*
Sample Usages.
*
*
Parallel recursive decomposition. CountedCompleters may
* be arranged in trees similar to those often used with {@link
* RecursiveAction}s, although the constructions involved in setting
* them up typically vary. Here, the completer of each task is its
* parent in the computation tree. Even though they entail a bit more
* bookkeeping, CountedCompleters may be better choices when applying
* a possibly time-consuming operation (that cannot be further
* subdivided) to each element of an array or collection; especially
* when the operation takes a significantly different amount of time
* to complete for some elements than others, either because of
* intrinsic variation (for example I/O) or auxiliary effects such as
* garbage collection. Because CountedCompleters provide their own
* continuations, other threads need not block waiting to perform
* them.
*
*
For example, here is an initial version of a class that uses
* divide-by-two recursive decomposition to divide work into single
* pieces (leaf tasks). Even when work is split into individual calls,
* tree-based techniques are usually preferable to directly forking
* leaf tasks, because they reduce inter-thread communication and
* improve load balancing. In the recursive case, the second of each
* pair of subtasks to finish triggers completion of its parent
* (because no result combination is performed, the default no-op
* implementation of method {@code onCompletion} is not overridden). A
* static utility method sets up the base task and invokes it
* (here, implicitly using the {@link ForkJoinPool#commonPool()}).
*
*
{@code
* class MyOperation { void apply(E e) { ... } }
*
* class ForEach extends CountedCompleter {
*
* public static void forEach(E[] array, MyOperation op) {
* new ForEach(null, array, op, 0, array.length).invoke();
* }
*
* final E[] array; final MyOperation op; final int lo, hi;
* ForEach(CountedCompleter p, E[] array, MyOperation op, int lo, int hi) {
* super(p);
* this.array = array; this.op = op; this.lo = lo; this.hi = hi;
* }
*
* public void compute() { // version 1
* if (hi - lo >= 2) {
* int mid = (lo + hi) >>> 1;
* setPendingCount(2); // must set pending count before fork
* new ForEach(this, array, op, mid, hi).fork(); // right child
* new ForEach(this, array, op, lo, mid).fork(); // left child
* }
* else if (hi > lo)
* op.apply(array[lo]);
* tryComplete();
* }
* }}
*
* This design can be improved by noticing that in the recursive case,
* the task has nothing to do after forking its right task, so can
* directly invoke its left task before returning. (This is an analog
* of tail recursion removal.) Also, because the task returns upon
* executing its left task (rather than falling through to invoke
* {@code tryComplete}) the pending count is set to one:
*
* {@code
* class ForEach ...
* public void compute() { // version 2
* if (hi - lo >= 2) {
* int mid = (lo + hi) >>> 1;
* setPendingCount(1); // only one pending
* new ForEach(this, array, op, mid, hi).fork(); // right child
* new ForEach(this, array, op, lo, mid).compute(); // direct invoke
* }
* else {
* if (hi > lo)
* op.apply(array[lo]);
* tryComplete();
* }
* }
* }
*
* As a further improvement, notice that the left task need not even
* exist. Instead of creating a new one, we can iterate using the
* original task, and add a pending count for each fork. Additionally,
* because no task in this tree implements an {@link #onCompletion}
* method, {@code tryComplete()} can be replaced with {@link
* #propagateCompletion}.
*
* {@code
* class ForEach ...
* public void compute() { // version 3
* int l = lo, h = hi;
* while (h - l >= 2) {
* int mid = (l + h) >>> 1;
* addToPendingCount(1);
* new ForEach(this, array, op, mid, h).fork(); // right child
* h = mid;
* }
* if (h > l)
* op.apply(array[l]);
* propagateCompletion();
* }
* }
*
* Additional improvements of such classes might entail precomputing
* pending counts so that they can be established in constructors,
* specializing classes for leaf steps, subdividing by say, four,
* instead of two per iteration, and using an adaptive threshold
* instead of always subdividing down to single elements.
*
* Searching. A tree of CountedCompleters can search for a
* value or property in different parts of a data structure, and
* report a result in an {@link
* java.util.concurrent.atomic.AtomicReference AtomicReference} as
* soon as one is found. The others can poll the result to avoid
* unnecessary work. (You could additionally {@linkplain #cancel
* cancel} other tasks, but it is usually simpler and more efficient
* to just let them notice that the result is set and if so skip
* further processing.) Illustrating again with an array using full
* partitioning (again, in practice, leaf tasks will almost always
* process more than one element):
*
*
{@code
* class Searcher extends CountedCompleter {
* final E[] array; final AtomicReference result; final int lo, hi;
* Searcher(CountedCompleter p, E[] array, AtomicReference result, int lo, int hi) {
* super(p);
* this.array = array; this.result = result; this.lo = lo; this.hi = hi;
* }
* public E getRawResult() { return result.get(); }
* public void compute() { // similar to ForEach version 3
* int l = lo, h = hi;
* while (result.get() == null && h >= l) {
* if (h - l >= 2) {
* int mid = (l + h) >>> 1;
* addToPendingCount(1);
* new Searcher(this, array, result, mid, h).fork();
* h = mid;
* }
* else {
* E x = array[l];
* if (matches(x) && result.compareAndSet(null, x))
* quietlyCompleteRoot(); // root task is now joinable
* break;
* }
* }
* tryComplete(); // normally complete whether or not found
* }
* boolean matches(E e) { ... } // return true if found
*
* public static E search(E[] array) {
* return new Searcher(null, array, new AtomicReference(), 0, array.length).invoke();
* }
* }}
*
* In this example, as well as others in which tasks have no other
* effects except to compareAndSet a common result, the trailing
* unconditional invocation of {@code tryComplete} could be made
* conditional ({@code if (result.get() == null) tryComplete();})
* because no further bookkeeping is required to manage completions
* once the root task completes.
*
* Recording subtasks. CountedCompleter tasks that combine
* results of multiple subtasks usually need to access these results
* in method {@link #onCompletion}. As illustrated in the following
* class (that performs a simplified form of map-reduce where mappings
* and reductions are all of type {@code E}), one way to do this in
* divide and conquer designs is to have each subtask record its
* sibling, so that it can be accessed in method {@code onCompletion}.
* This technique applies to reductions in which the order of
* combining left and right results does not matter; ordered
* reductions require explicit left/right designations. Variants of
* other streamlinings seen in the above examples may also apply.
*
*
{@code
* class MyMapper { E apply(E v) { ... } }
* class MyReducer { E apply(E x, E y) { ... } }
* class MapReducer extends CountedCompleter {
* final E[] array; final MyMapper mapper;
* final MyReducer reducer; final int lo, hi;
* MapReducer sibling;
* E result;
* MapReducer(CountedCompleter p, E[] array, MyMapper mapper,
* MyReducer reducer, int lo, int hi) {
* super(p);
* this.array = array; this.mapper = mapper;
* this.reducer = reducer; this.lo = lo; this.hi = hi;
* }
* public void compute() {
* if (hi - lo >= 2) {
* int mid = (lo + hi) >>> 1;
* MapReducer left = new MapReducer(this, array, mapper, reducer, lo, mid);
* MapReducer right = new MapReducer(this, array, mapper, reducer, mid, hi);
* left.sibling = right;
* right.sibling = left;
* setPendingCount(1); // only right is pending
* right.fork();
* left.compute(); // directly execute left
* }
* else {
* if (hi > lo)
* result = mapper.apply(array[lo]);
* tryComplete();
* }
* }
* public void onCompletion(CountedCompleter caller) {
* if (caller != this) {
* MapReducer child = (MapReducer)caller;
* MapReducer sib = child.sibling;
* if (sib == null || sib.result == null)
* result = child.result;
* else
* result = reducer.apply(child.result, sib.result);
* }
* }
* public E getRawResult() { return result; }
*
* public static E mapReduce(E[] array, MyMapper mapper, MyReducer reducer) {
* return new MapReducer(null, array, mapper, reducer,
* 0, array.length).invoke();
* }
* }}
*
* Here, method {@code onCompletion} takes a form common to many
* completion designs that combine results. This callback-style method
* is triggered once per task, in either of the two different contexts
* in which the pending count is, or becomes, zero: (1) by a task
* itself, if its pending count is zero upon invocation of {@code
* tryComplete}, or (2) by any of its subtasks when they complete and
* decrement the pending count to zero. The {@code caller} argument
* distinguishes cases. Most often, when the caller is {@code this},
* no action is necessary. Otherwise the caller argument can be used
* (usually via a cast) to supply a value (and/or links to other
* values) to be combined. Assuming proper use of pending counts, the
* actions inside {@code onCompletion} occur (once) upon completion of
* a task and its subtasks. No additional synchronization is required
* within this method to ensure thread safety of accesses to fields of
* this task or other completed tasks.
*
* Completion Traversals. If using {@code onCompletion} to
* process completions is inapplicable or inconvenient, you can use
* methods {@link #firstComplete} and {@link #nextComplete} to create
* custom traversals. For example, to define a MapReducer that only
* splits out right-hand tasks in the form of the third ForEach
* example, the completions must cooperatively reduce along
* unexhausted subtask links, which can be done as follows:
*
*
{@code
* class MapReducer extends CountedCompleter { // version 2
* final E[] array; final MyMapper mapper;
* final MyReducer reducer; final int lo, hi;
* MapReducer forks, next; // record subtask forks in list
* E result;
* MapReducer(CountedCompleter p, E[] array, MyMapper mapper,
* MyReducer reducer, int lo, int hi, MapReducer next) {
* super(p);
* this.array = array; this.mapper = mapper;
* this.reducer = reducer; this.lo = lo; this.hi = hi;
* this.next = next;
* }
* public void compute() {
* int l = lo, h = hi;
* while (h - l >= 2) {
* int mid = (l + h) >>> 1;
* addToPendingCount(1);
* (forks = new MapReducer(this, array, mapper, reducer, mid, h, forks)).fork;
* h = mid;
* }
* if (h > l)
* result = mapper.apply(array[l]);
* // process completions by reducing along and advancing subtask links
* for (CountedCompleter c = firstComplete(); c != null; c = c.nextComplete()) {
* for (MapReducer t = (MapReducer)c, s = t.forks; s != null; s = t.forks = s.next)
* t.result = reducer.apply(t.result, s.result);
* }
* }
* public E getRawResult() { return result; }
*
* public static E mapReduce(E[] array, MyMapper mapper, MyReducer reducer) {
* return new MapReducer(null, array, mapper, reducer,
* 0, array.length, null).invoke();
* }
* }}
*
* Triggers. Some CountedCompleters are themselves never
* forked, but instead serve as bits of plumbing in other designs;
* including those in which the completion of one of more async tasks
* triggers another async task. For example:
*
*
{@code
* class HeaderBuilder extends CountedCompleter<...> { ... }
* class BodyBuilder extends CountedCompleter<...> { ... }
* class PacketSender extends CountedCompleter<...> {
* PacketSender(...) { super(null, 1); ... } // trigger on second completion
* public void compute() { } // never called
* public void onCompletion(CountedCompleter caller) { sendPacket(); }
* }
* // sample use:
* PacketSender p = new PacketSender();
* new HeaderBuilder(p, ...).fork();
* new BodyBuilder(p, ...).fork();
* }
