- Introduce `CombinedDependenciesJob` for efficient dependency handling and memory management
- Add `ScheduleCustom<T>` for user-defined job execution/free logic
- Refactor `JobInfo` and `JobDataPool<T>` for safer resource management and custom function support
- Improve SPMD extension type constraint formatting
- Update SPMD project content path and increment assembly versions
- Add unit tests for combined dependencies and custom jobs
- Remove `[Timeout]` from tests to prevent spurious failures
- Add TODO for future `WideLane` optimizations
- Replace legacy .sln with .slnx for better solution structure
Relaxed generic constraints for job scheduling/execution to allow reference types (removed struct requirement). Updated IJob, IJobParallelFor, and IJobParallel extension methods to support both value and reference types, introducing RunRef for struct-specific overloads. Adjusted JobExecutor and JobScheduler to match new constraints. Bumped assembly version to 3.1.1. Added Value property to Wrapper<T> for ref access and inlined Get(). Changed GGXMipGenerationJob sample count to linear roughness. Removed unused usings in JobInfo.cs.
Major refactor of job system and memory allocator:
- Replaced threadIndex with preferLocal for scheduling
- Switched local queues to SPMCQueue for better performance
- Introduced lock-free JobEdge pool for dependencies
- Removed remainingBatches; use ref counting for completion
- Updated all scheduling APIs and tests to new model
- Optimized FreeList struct sizes and block management
- Added allocation benchmarks
- Disabled OwnershipTransferAnalyzer temporarily
- Bumped assembly versions
Replaces unsafe pointer-based job data with JobDataPool<T> and ConcurrentSlotMap<T> for safer, type-safe management. JobInfo now references job data by (dataID, dataGeneration). JobExecutor and JobScheduler updated to use the new pool-based approach, requiring T : struct. Removed FreeList and pointer logic. WorkerThread now uses reference counting to prevent use-after-free. Updated all scheduling APIs and benchmarks to match new signatures. Improved documentation and inlining. Bumped assembly version to 3.0.0 due to breaking changes.
Added:
- Added `JobExecutor.cs` for job execution management.
- Added `JobInfo.cs` to hold job execution information.
- Added `TestJobSystem.cs` for unit tests of the job system.
- Added `TestJobs.cs` for additional job implementation tests.
- Added `WorkerThread.cs` to manage worker threads for jobs.
Changed:
- Changed `AssemblyInfo.cs.cs` to include a global using directive for `unsafe JobExecuteFunc`.
- Changed `IJob.cs` to include an overload of the `Execute` method with a `threadIndex` parameter.
- Changed `JobHandle.cs` to include an `IsValid` property and updated internal structure.
- Changed `JobScheduler.cs` to improve job scheduling and management.
- Changed `JobsUtility.cs` to enhance job management functions.
- Changed `MemoryBlock.cs` to reference the heap from which memory was allocated.
- Changed `ParallelNoiseBenchmark.cs` to include benchmarks for the job system.
- Changed `Program.cs` to execute benchmarks instead of previous test code.
Removed:
- Removed `.gitignore` entries for default ignored files.
- Removed `JobBase.cs` to shift from structs to classes for jobs.
- Removed `JobExtensions.cs` indicating a change in job scheduling.
- Removed `JobStruct.cs` indicating a change in job structure.
- Removed `encodings.xml`, `indexLayout.xml`, and `vcs.xml` files to simplify project configuration.
- Removed fields from `JobData.cs` to simplify the job data structure.
- Removed `TestJobSystem.csproj` entries related to old project structure.
