After noticing on several occasions that the thread counts
we see when running OpenSIm were bordering on the astronomical
I decided to seriously investigate.
After much poking I discovered that the problem is actually very
simple. The XEngine secition of the example ini says that the
timeout for an iden thread is in seconds, and an example value
of 60 is specified. In fact, this is actually resulting in a 60mS
idle timeout, which is not normally enough for a smart thread
to survive. I have added a multiplier to the XEngine constructor
so that the number now matches the published behavior.
This is sent to all root prims of all attachments of an avatar when the
animation state changes. llGetAnimation() can thenbe used to find the
new movement animation. This eliminates the need for fast timers in AOs
of objects from the scene, and of scripts from objects. This facilitates
the development of modules that can register prims with externall servers
for inbound email and XMLRPC. Currently implemented in XEngine only.
Also applying cmickeyb's compiler locking patch, since it seems risk-free.
NOTHING has been deleted or moved off to forge at this point. what
has happened is that OpenSim.Region.Environment.Modules has been split
in two:
- OpenSim.Region.CoreModules: all those modules that are either
directly or indirectly referenced from other OpenSim packages, or
that provide functionality that the OpenSim developer community
considers core functionality:

OpenSim.Region.Environment into a "framework" part and a modules only
part. This first changeset refactors OpenSim.Region.Environment.Scenes,
OpenSim.Region.Environment.Interfaces, and OpenSim.Region.Interfaces
into OpenSim.Region.Framework.{Interfaces,Scenes} leaving only region
modules in OpenSim.Region.Environment.
The next step will be to move region modules up from
OpenSim.Region.Environment.Modules to OpenSim.Region.CoreModules and
then sort out which modules are really core modules and which should
move out to forge.
I've been very careful to NOT BREAK anything. i hope i've
succeeded. as this is the work of a whole week i hope i managed to
keep track with the applied patches of the last week --- could any of
you that did check in stuff have a look at whether it survived? thx!
This patch fixes the problem where if an object containing a script is
deleted at the same time as an object containing the same script is
rezzed, it can result in the assembly file being deleted after the
second object script initialisation has found it but not started using
it yet, resulting in the script not starting up.
This changeset fixes a race condition where a script (XEngine run) can
startup before a reference is added to it in all of the required
places in the XEngine class. The effect of this is that a script can
sometimes on startup miss script events. For example a script which
starts up and initialises itself from a notecard may never receive the
dataserver event containing the notecard information.
The patch isn't as clean as I'd like - I've split the constructor of
ScriptInstance up so it does everything it did before except
call Startup and post events like state_entry and on_rez. An Init
function has been added which is called after the ScriptInstance
object has been added to the necessary data structures in XEngine.
Happy to rework it if someone suggests a better way of doing it.
Adding Oarfileloaded and EmptyScriptCompileQueue event support which
allows (with a module) for programmatic notification of when a region
objects and scripts are up and running after a server start or
load-oar.
* SceneObjectPartInventory.cs isn't a particularly good name but it's probably not got a long life
* A proper inventory interface to follow
* Parallel changes for other inventory partial classes to follow at a later date
release a direct descendant of the stable 7364, with all the features and
none of the issues.
This omits the following patch chain: r7383 r7382 r7381 r7377 r7375 r7373
r7372 r7370 r7369 r7368 r7367 r7366
- Added two missing caps (UpdateScriptAgent, UpdateScriptTask)
- Added one missing EventQueue event (ScriptRunningReply)
- Changed DNE and XEngine to use this new event
As we only use the mono engine anyway, the "Mono" checkbox is set by
default but doesn't have any function.
Fix: objects being duplicated inventory on detach. Fix: Mad jumping around of
attachments while editing. Fix: Attachments being persisted to database on
login. Fix: Attachments being persisted when changed by a script like
invisprim refresh. Fix: Attachpoint set, but not reset correctly. Fix: prevent
spurious full updates while editing attachments. Several other fixes
Scene. Make the script engines check that the engine name in the
//Engine:language comment is a valid engine and treat it as a normal
comment if it's not.
//DotNetEngine: needs to be written as //ScriptEngine.DotNetEngine: now, since
that is it's real internal name. //XEngine: still works
and makes it use a common set of types in both engine. Fixes the issues with
running both engines and HTTP requests / listens / timers etc..
Also fixes a couple of minor Scene issues and a CTB by nullref.
all methods needed outside the API ststic. Async command processing
is now wholly internal to the API. This sets the stage for the next
convergence step.
ordinary region modules and are able to coexist in one instance.
See http://opensimulator.org/wiki/ScriptEngines for details. There were
changes to OpenSim.ini.example, please note DefaultScriptEngine.
Also see the User docs and FAQ on the Wiki. Default is DotNetEngine.
* On script rez, XEngine was taking an m_scripts lock and then later on an m_parts lock when looking for a part by local id
* In the meantime, a scene object being deleted would take an m_parts lock and then later on try to take an m_scripts lock when it tried to trigger script removal
* There may be better ways to resolve this, but I believe that in general, we must always take an m_parts lock before an m_scripts lock
XEngine fixes: prevent queue overruns, prevent spamming when no key
is down. Release controls when conflicting permissions are requested
or permissions are refused later. Release when prim or script are deleted.
Fixes Scene script instance deletion semantics.

This will make "Eye Candy" scripts work without modification in
XEngine. The use of the CHANGED_REGION_RESTART hack is no longer
needed. Implemented in MySQL only, hovertext also in SQLite.
duplicate delivery of state_entry if a region is restarted just after
saving the script. Changes script state saves to no longer abort long-
running event handlers. Queues the save instead. Adds shutdown handler
to save script state on irderly shutdown
* This is a HUGE OMG update and will definitely have unknown side effects.. so this is really only for the strong hearted at this point. Regular people should let the dust settle.
* This has been tested to work with most basic functions. However.. make sure you back up 'everything' before using this. It's that big!
* Essentially we're back at square 1 in the testing phase.. so lets identify things that broke.
1000 chars to avoid the exception thrown by libomv at 1100 chars.
Change string->int conversion so it copes with non-numeric chars
after the number and no longer uses a float to parse the value.
which is a thin wrapper around a IWorkItemResult from the SmartThreadPool.
However, it is very easy to reimplement on top of basic threading and therefore
makes the IScriptInstance class independent of the specific threading
implementation.
engines that want to use the XEngine's instance handling and state
persistence can do so. IScriptInstance is optional, but it does
require the SmartThreadPool if it is used.
In LSL, the state command should have an immediate effect.
The OpenSim script engine seems to wait until the function
ends to process the state transition.
It would appear that calling llResetScript() in state_entry() causes deadlock of region.
Probably due to llResetScript calling state_entry again. llResetScript should see who called it,
and not recall state_entry() after a state/variable reset. Once this script is in a prim,
the region/world/debug/script window shows it consuming the server (from 2,400 to 800,000 milliseconds).
"First stage in a major Script Engine refactor, that will result in the LSL implementaions ebing reconverged. Not there yet, but one major part is done."
Thank you, Melanie!
The attatched patch makes the changed() event fire properly and
lets scripts run properly.
NOTE: All existing state files must be deleted:
rm ScriptEngines/*/*.state
Adds full implementation of all llDetected* functions for sensors,
collisions and touches. Adds changed(CHANGED_REGION_RESTART) event
to allow restarting of eye-candy functionality not currently
persisted with the prim.
