<a name="l1"></a><span class=cF0>TempleOS does master-slave multicore instead of SMP. </span><span class=cF2>Core0</span><span class=cF0> is the master. The
|
||
|
|
<a name="l2"></a>master core's applications explicitly assign computational jobs to other cores
|
||
|
|
<a name="l3"></a>and the TempleOS scheduler does not move tasks between cores.
|
||
|
|
<a name="l4"></a>
|
||
|
|
<a name="l5"></a>There are multicore safe locks for file access and heap allocations, however, so
|
||
|
|
<a name="l6"></a>TempleOS is symmetrical in some sense. See </span><a href="/src/Demo/MultiCore/LoadTest.HC#l1"><span class=cF4>::/Demo/MultiCore/LoadTest.HC</span></a><span class=cF0>.

<a name="l8"></a>Only tasks on </span><span class=cF2>Core0</span><span class=cF0> can have windows, but other cores can help render them.
|
||
|
|
<a name="l9"></a>
|
||
|
|
<a name="l10"></a>Each core has an executive </span><a href="/src/Doc/Glossary.DD.HTML#l181"><span class=cF4>Seth Task</span></a><span class=cF0> which is the father of all tasks on that
|

|

<a name="l11"></a>core. </span><a href="/src/Doc/Glossary.DD.HTML#l171"><span class=cF4>Adam</span></a><span class=cF0> is the </span><a href="/src/Doc/Glossary.DD.HTML#l181"><span class=cF4>Seth Task</span></a><span class=cF0> on </span><span class=cF2>Core0</span><span class=cF0>.
|

<a name="l12"></a>
|

<a name="l13"></a>You give a job to a </span><a href="/src/Doc/Glossary.DD.HTML#l181"><span class=cF4>Seth Task</span></a><span class=cF0> with </span><a href="/src/Kernel/MultiProc.HC#l213"><span class=cF4>JobQue</span></a><span class=cF0>() and get the result with </span><a href="/src/Kernel/Job.HC#l199"><span class=cF4>JobResGet</span></a><span class=cF0>().
|

|
|
<a name="l14"></a> You spawn a task on any core with </span><a href="/src/Kernel/KTask.HC#l242"><span class=cF4>Spawn</span></a><span class=cF0>().

<a name="l15"></a>
|

<a name="l16"></a>Note: You must use the </span><span class=cF2>LOCK</span><span class=cF0> asm prefix when changing shared structures in a

The </span><a href="/src/Kernel/KernelB.HH#l26"><span class=cF4>LBts</span></a><span class=cF0>(), </span><a href="/src/Kernel/KernelB.HH#l24"><span class=cF4>LBtr</span></a><span class=cF0>() and </span><a href="/src/Kernel/KernelB.HH#l22"><span class=cF4>LBtc</span></a><span class=cF0>() insts have </span><span class=cF2>LOCK</span><span class=cF0> prefixes.

<a name="l18"></a>The compiler has a </span><span class=cF2>lock{}</span><span class=cF0> feature but it doesn't work well. See </span><span class=cF4>
