Coccinelle has had parmap support since 1.0.2, this means it supports --jobs, enabling built-in multithreaded functionality, instead of needing one to script it out. Just look for --jobs in the help output to determine if this is supported and use it only if your number of processors detected is > 1. If parmap is enabled also enable the load balancing to be dynamic, so that if a thread finishes early we keep feeding it. stderr is currently sent to /dev/null, addressing a way to capture that will be addressed next. If --jobs is not supported we fallback to the old mechanism. We expect to deprecate the old mechanism as soon as we can get confirmation all users are ready. While at it propagate back into the shell script any coccinelle error code. When used in serialized mode where all cocci files are run this also stops processing if an error has occured. This lets us handle some errors in coccinelle cocci files and if they bail out we should inspect the errors. This will be more useful later to help annotate coccinelle version dependency requirements. This will let you run only SmPL files that your system supports. Extend Documentation/coccinelle.txt as well. As a small example, prior to this change, on an 8-core system: Before: $ export COCCI=scripts/coccinelle/free/kfree.cocci $ time make coccicheck MODE=report ... real 29m14.912s user 103m1.796s sys 0m4.464s After: real 16m22.435s user 128m30.060s sys 0m2.712s v4: o expand Documentation/coccinelle.txt to reflect parmap support info o update commit log to reflect what we actually do now with stderr o split out DEBUG_FILE use into another patch o detect number of CPUs and if its 1 then skip parmap support, note that if you still support parmap, but have 1 CPU you will also go through the new branches, so the old complex multithreaded process is skipped as well. v3: o move USE_JOBS to avoid being overriden v2: o redirect coccinelle stderr to /dev/null by default and only if DEBUG_FILE is used do we pass it to a file o fix typo of paramap/parmap Signed-off-by: Luis R.
