[英]How can I modify the std::launch policy afterwards for std::async?
Suppose I want to use std::async
for parallelism in my c++ code to run a computationally heavy function func
. 假设我想在我的c ++代码中使用std::async
进行并行操作来运行计算量很大的函数func
。 Now since it is a heavy function, we might at first use std::launch::deferred
policy for it as the situation is that we may not need to run after all. 既然它是一个繁重的函数,我们可能首先使用std::launch::deferred
策略,因为我们可能根本不需要运行它。
But again if ever we need to execute them suddenly in the future, we desire to run in parallel. 但是,如果我们将来需要突然执行它们,我们希望并行运行。 Then how can we modify the std::launch
policy afterwards. 然后我们如何修改std::launch
策略。
[Well, one can say that why don't you then suddenly create the std::async
s as suddenly you need to execute. [嗯,有人可以说你为什么不突然创建std::async
s 突然你需要执行。 But I am assuming here that I cannot do that.] 但我在这里假设我做不到。]
Or, is there any better and cleaner way to do this other than using std::async
? 或者,除了使用std::async
之外,还有更好更清洁的方法吗?
Any help is highly appreciated. 任何帮助都非常感谢。 Thanks in advance. 提前致谢。
#include <future>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
std::vector<double> func(size_t n) // a computationally heavy function
{
std::vector<double> vec(n);
std::generate_n(vec.begin(), n, std::rand);
return vec;
}
int main()
{
// create asyncs, now deferred for lazy execution
auto v1 = std::async(std::launch::deferred, func, 200); // deferred for lazy execution
auto v2 = std::async(std::launch::deferred, func, 250); // deferred for lazy execution
// only after sometime we decide to execute both of them
// but we also now want them to execute in parallel
// so how can we now change the launch policy?
// to get the values as quickly as can be
auto n1 = v1.get().size();
auto n2 = v2.get().size();
std::cout<<"Got "<<n1<<" and "<<n2<<" random numbers in parallel!"<<std::endl;
return 0;
}
Thinking a little bit more leads me with this issue: 更多地思考这个问题导致我:
After defining the std::async
with std::launch::deferred
, when one calls the .get()
function, will it then be guaranteed to run async (ie in parallel) Surely, not. 在使用std::launch::deferred
定义std::async
之后,当一个人调用.get()
函数时,它是否会保证运行异步 (即并行)当然,不是。 http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/launch says http://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/thread/launch说
it is executed on the calling thread. 它在调用线程上执行。
Then the very notion of async gets spoilt, right? 那么异步的概念会被破坏,对吧?
If the std::async
uses std::launch::deferred
then it is run when the returned std::future
object's get()
function is called. 如果std::async
使用std::launch::deferred
则在调用返回的std::future
对象的get()
函数时运行它。
This suggests you could force std::launch::async
like this: 这表明你可以像这样强制std::launch::async
:
int s1 = 0;
int s2 = 0;
auto v1 = std::async(std::launch::deferred, []{ return 1; });
auto v2 = std::async(std::launch::deferred, []{ return 2; });
// some fancy coding ...
if(need_to_upgrade_launch_policy())
{
auto v1a = std::async(std::launch::async, [&]{ return v1.get(); });
auto v2a = std::async(std::launch::async, [&]{ return v2.get(); });
s1 = v1a.get();
s2 = v2a.get();
}
// more clever coding ...
if(v1.valid()) // was never upgraded
s1 = v1.get();
if(v2.valid()) // was never upgraded
s2 = v2.get();
