Description: Fast parallel version of golang filepath.Walk()
Performs traversals in parallel so set GOMAXPROCS appropriately.
Values from 8 to 16 seem to work best on 4-CPU plus 4 SMT CPU.
The result is about 4x-6x the traversal rate of the standard
Walk(). The two are not identical since walking the file system
in a tumult of asynchronous walkFunc calls by a number of goroutines.
So, take note of the following:
• This walk honors all of the walkFunc
error semantics but as multiple user-supplied walkFuncs may simultaneously
encounter a traversal error or generate one to stop traversal, only the
FIRST of these will be returned as the Walk() result.
• Further, since
there may be a few files in flight at the instant of error discovery, a
few more walkFunc calls may happen after the first error-generating call
has signaled its desire to stop. In general this is a non-issue but it
could matter so pay attention when designing your walkFunc. (For example,
if you accumulate results then you need to have your own means to know
to stop accumulating once you signal an error.)
• Because the walkFunc
is called concurrently in multiple goroutines, it needs to be careful
about what it does with external data to avoid collisions. Results may
be printed using fmt, but generally the best plan is to send results
over a channel or accumulate counts using a locked mutex.
.
These issues
are illustrated/handled in the simple traversal programs supplied with
walk. There is also a test file that is just the tests from filepath
in the Go language's standard library. Walk passes these tests when
run in single process mode, and passes most of them in concurrent mode
(GOMAXPROCS > 1). The problem is not a real problem, but one of the
test expecting a specific number of errors to be found based on presumed
sequential traversals.
