absl: fix SpinLock::EncodeWaitCycles

If a thread has ever observed or set kSpinLockSleeper, it must
never leave 0 in kWaitTimeMask because at this point it is
expected to wake subsequent threads. Current calculations in
EncodeWaitCycles can result in 0 in kWaitTimeMask and lead to
missed wakeups. This is mostly theoretical today, because
the futex call needs to finish within 128 cycles (futex can
return immediately without waiting, but 128 cycles still
look too low for this). But this can well fire in future
if we bump granularity and/or threshold for recording contention.

Use kSpinLockSleeper instead of 0.

absl: optimize SpinLock::SlowLock

Currently we record contention even after the first initial spin.
This leads to several performance issues:
1. If we succeed in acquiring the lock after the initial spin,
overall wait time can be within tens/hundreds of nanoseconds.
Recording such low wait time looks completely unnecessary and excessive.
From some point of view this is not even a wait, because we did not sleep.
And, for example, Mutex does not record contention in this case.
In majority of cases the lock should be acquired exactly during the initial
spin, yet we still go through full overhead of submitting contention.
2. Whenever a thread submits contention it also calls FUTEX_WAKE
(there is no way to understand if it's necessary or not when wait value
is stored in the lock). So if there are just 2 threads and a brief
contention, the second thread will still call FUTEX_WAKE which
is completely unnecessary overhead.

Don't record contention after the initial spin wait.

FWIW this also removes 2 CycleClock::Now calls and EncodeWaitCycles
from the common hot path.

Abseil - C++ Common Libraries

The repository contains the Abseil C++ library code. Abseil is an open-source collection of C++ code (compliant to C++11) designed to augment the C++ standard library.

About Abseil

Abseil is an open-source collection of C++ library code designed to augment the C++ standard library. The Abseil library code is collected from Google's own C++ code base, has been extensively tested and used in production, and is the same code we depend on in our daily coding lives.

In some cases, Abseil provides pieces missing from the C++ standard; in others, Abseil provides alternatives to the standard for special needs we've found through usage in the Google code base. We denote those cases clearly within the library code we provide you.

Abseil is not meant to be a competitor to the standard library; we've just found that many of these utilities serve a purpose within our code base, and we now want to provide those resources to the C++ community as a whole.

Quickstart

If you want to just get started, make sure you at least run through the Abseil Quickstart. The Quickstart contains information about setting up your development environment, downloading the Abseil code, running tests, and getting a simple binary working.

Building Abseil

Bazel is the official build system for Abseil, which is supported on most major platforms (Linux, Windows, MacOS, for example) and compilers. See the quickstart for more information on building Abseil using the Bazel build system.

If you require CMake support, please check the CMake build instructions.

Codemap

Abseil contains the following C++ library components:

  • base Abseil Fundamentals
    The base library contains initialization code and other code which all other Abseil code depends on. Code within base may not depend on any other code (other than the C++ standard library).
  • algorithm
    The algorithm library contains additions to the C++ <algorithm> library and container-based versions of such algorithms.
  • container
    The container library contains additional STL-style containers, including Abseil's unordered "Swiss table" containers.
  • debugging
    The debugging library contains code useful for enabling leak checks, and stacktrace and symbolization utilities.
  • hash
    The hash library contains the hashing framework and default hash functor implementations for hashable types in Abseil.
  • memory
    The memory library contains C++11-compatible versions of std::make_unique() and related memory management facilities.
  • meta
    The meta library contains C++11-compatible versions of type checks available within C++14 and C++17 versions of the C++ <type_traits> library.
  • numeric
    The numeric library contains C++11-compatible 128-bit integers.
  • strings
    The strings library contains a variety of strings routines and utilities, including a C++11-compatible version of the C++17 std::string_view type.
  • synchronization
    The synchronization library contains concurrency primitives (Abseil's absl::Mutex class, an alternative to std::mutex) and a variety of synchronization abstractions.
  • time
    The time library contains abstractions for computing with absolute points in time, durations of time, and formatting and parsing time within time zones.
  • types
    The types library contains non-container utility types, like a C++11-compatible version of the C++17 std::optional type.
  • utility
    The utility library contains utility and helper code.
