进度保证

很多并发算法会提供非阻塞的进度保证, 例如无锁(lock-freedom)和无等待(wait-freedom). 由于算法通常比较复杂, 因此很容易加入 bug, 导致算法阻塞. 使用模型检查策略, Lincheck 可以帮助你找到这种存活 bug.

要检查算法的进度保证性, 请在 ModelCheckingOptions() 中启用 checkObstructionFreedom 选项:

ModelCheckingOptions().checkObstructionFreedom()

创建一个 ConcurrentMapTest.kt 文件. 然后添加下面的测试代码, 它能够检测出 Java 标准库中的 ConcurrentHashMap::put(key: K, value: V) 是一个阻塞操作:

import org.jetbrains.kotlinx.lincheck.*
import org.jetbrains.kotlinx.lincheck.annotations.*
import org.jetbrains.kotlinx.lincheck.strategy.managed.modelchecking.*
import org.junit.*
import java.util.concurrent.*

class ConcurrentHashMapTest {
    private val map = ConcurrentHashMap<Int, Int>()

    @Operation
    fun put(key: Int, value: Int) = map.put(key, value)

    @Test
    fun modelCheckingTest() = ModelCheckingOptions()
        .actorsBefore(1) // 初始化 HashMap
        .actorsPerThread(1)
        .actorsAfter(0)
        .minimizeFailedScenario(false)
        .checkObstructionFreedom()
        .check(this::class)
}

运行 modelCheckingTest(). 你会得到以下结果:

= Obstruction-freedom is required but a lock has been found =
| ---------------------- |
|  Thread 1  | Thread 2  |
| ---------------------- |
| put(1, -1) |           |
| ---------------------- |
| put(2, -2) | put(3, 2) |
| ---------------------- |

---
All operations above the horizontal line | ----- | happen before those below the line

The following interleaving leads to the error:

下面我们来为非阻塞的 ConcurrentSkipListMap<K, V> 添加一个测试, 这个测试应该成功通过:

class ConcurrentSkipListMapTest {
    private val map = ConcurrentSkipListMap<Int, Int>()

    @Operation
    fun put(key: Int, value: Int) = map.put(key, value)

    @Test
    fun modelCheckingTest() = ModelCheckingOptions()
        .checkObstructionFreedom()
        .check(this::class)
}

目前, Lincheck 只支持无阻塞(obstruction-freedom)的进度保证. 但是, 大多数现实生活中的存活 bug 都是由于添加了不正确的阻塞代码, 因此无阻塞(obstruction-freedom)检查也有助于测试无锁(lock-freedom)和无等待(wait-freedom)算法.

下一步

学习如何对被测试的算法明确的指定顺序规格, 增加 Lincheck 测试的健壮性.
