domainslib - Parallel Programming over Multicore OCaml

domainslib provides control and data structure for parallel programming using domains.

The supported data structures are:

  • Channels

    • Channels may be shared between multiple senders and receivers.
    • Channels ensure FIFO message order.
    • Channels come in two flavours -- bounded (fixed-buffer size (>= 0) beyond which the send blocks) and unbounded.

  • Task

    • Work-stealing task pool with async/await parallelism and parallel for loop.

See examples for usage.

Installation

The library can be installed using multicore-opam, an OPAM repository of multicore specific packages.

$ opam switch create 4.12.0+domains+effects
$ opam install domainslib

Development

If you are interested in hacking on the implementation, then opam pin this repository:

First install the multicore compiler and dune:

$ opam switch create 4.12.0+domains+effects
$ opam install dune

Then, pin a clone of this repo:

$ git clone https://github.com/ocaml-multicore/domainslib
$ cd domainslib
$ opam pin add domainslib file://`pwd`

Build status

Results of building domainslib with each compiler on check.ci.ocaml.org, run of against opam-repository 78c202b. All results for this package.

Each result links to its build log. To keep crawlers from overloading the site, build logs require a GitHub sign-in (see ocurrent/opam-health-check). On your first log, GitHub asks you to “Authorize opam-health-check”, the OCurrent app that runs these checks; it sees only your public profile, not your repositories. The sign-in lasts 30 days.
