9002837750 Remove incorrect assert in tasksys.cpp 2012-10-15 10:43:46 -07:00

09bb36f58c Updated the task system in the example directory to support:
Cilk (cilk_for), OpenMP (#pragma omp parallel for), TBB(tbb::task_group and tbb::parallel_for)
as well as a new pthreads-based model that fully subscribes the machine (good for KNC).
With major contributions from Ingo Wald and James Brodman.

950f86200b Fix examples/tasksys.cpp to compile with 32-bit targets.
(Change a cmpxchgd to cmpxchl.)  Note that a number of the examples
still don't work with 32-bit compilation, why still TBD.

0b02f94988 Task system performance tweaks.
Switch back to GCD on OSX.
Increase TaskInfo allocation count.
This fixes the regression with deferred on AVX (from 17x to 25x
  again with 4 cores.)

cb7976bbf6 Added updated task launch implementation that now tracks task groups.
Within each function that launches tasks, we now can easily track which
tasks that function launched, so that the sync at the end of the function
can just sync on the tasks launched by that function (not all tasks
launched by all functions.)

Implementing this led to a rework of the task system API that ispc generates
code to call; the example task systems in examples/tasksys.cpp have been
updated to conform to this API.  (The updated API is also documented in
the ispc user's guide.)

As part of this, "launch[n]" syntax was added to launch a number of tasks
in a single launch statement, rather than requiring a loop over 'n' to
launch n tasks.

This commit thus fixes issue #84 (enhancement to launch multiple tasks from
a single launch statement) as well as issue #105 (recursive task launches
were broken).
