Contrary to the existing Task Sink, the Async and Sync Mutex Sinks
handle buffers in the `PadSinkHandler` directly. The Async Mutex
Sink uses an async Mutex for the `PadSinkHandlerInner` while the
Sync Mutex Sink uses... a sync Mutex.
All Sinks share the same settings and stats manager.
Use the `--sink` command line option to select the sink (default is
`sync-mutex` since it allows evaluating the framework with as little
overhead as possible.
Also apply various fixes:
- Only keep the segment start instead of the full `Segment`. This
helps with cache locality (`Segment` is a plain struct with many
fields) and avoids downcasting the generic `Segment` upon each
buffer handling.
- Box the `Stat`s. This should improve cache locality a bit.
- Fix EOS handling which took ages for no benefits in this
particular use case.
- Use a macro to raise log level in the main element.
- Move error handling during item processing in `handle_loop_error`.
This function was precisely designed for this and it should reduce
the `handle_item`'s Future size.
This commit improves threadshare timers predictability
by better making use of current time slice.
Added a dedicate timer BTreeMap for after timers (those
that are guaranteed to fire no sooner than the expected
instant) so as to avoid previous workaround which added
half the max throttling duration. These timers can now
be checked against the reactor processing instant.
Oneshot timers only need to be polled as `Future`s when
intervals are `Stream`s. This also reduces the size for
oneshot timers and make user call `next` on intervals.
Intervals can also implement `FusedStream`, which can help
when used in features such as `select!`.
Also drop the `time` module, which was kepts for
compatibility when the `executor` was migrated from tokio
based to smol-like.
- Reworked buffer push.
- Reworked stats.
- Make first elements logs stand out. This make it possible to
follow what's going on with pipelines containing 1000s of
elements.
- Actually handle EOS.
- Use more significant defaults.
- Allow building without `clap` feature.
Implement a test that initializes pipelines with minimalistic
theadshare src and sink. This can help with the evaluation of
changes to the threadshare runtime or with element
implementation details. It makes it easy to run flamegraph or
callgrind and to focus on the threadshare runtime overhead.
