This Technical Specification describes requirements for implementations of an interface that computer programs written in the C++ programming language may use to invoke algorithms with parallel execution. The algorithms described by this Technical Specification are realizable across a broad class of computer architectures.
This Technical Specification is non-normative. Some of the functionality described by this Technical Specification may be considered for standardization in a future version of C++, but it is not currently part of any C++ standard. Some of the functionality in this Technical Specification may never be standardized, and other functionality may be standardized in a substantially changed form.
The goal of this Technical Specification is to build widespread existing practice for parallelism in the C++ standard algorithms library. It gives advice on extensions to those vendors who wish to provide them.

This clause describes classes that are execution policy types. An object of an execution policy type indicates the kinds of parallelism allowed in the execution of an algorithm and expresses the consequent requirements on the element access functions.

declares a global object associated with each type of execution policy defined by this Technical Specification.
During the execution of a standard parallel algorithm,
if temporary memory resources are required and none are available,
the algorithm throws a std::bad_alloc
exception.
During the execution of a standard parallel algorithm, if the invocation of an element access function exits via an uncaught exception, the behavior of the program is determined by the type of execution policy used to invoke the algorithm:
class parallel_vector_execution_policy
,
std::terminate
shall be called.
sequential_execution_policy
or
parallel_execution_policy
, the execution of the algorithm exits via an
exception. The exception shall be an exception_list
containing all uncaught exceptions thrown during
the invocations of element access functions, or optionally the uncaught exception if there was only one.
for_each
is executed sequentially,
if an invocation of the user-provided function object throws an exception, for_each
can exit via the uncaught exception, or throw an exception_list
containing the original exception.
— end note ]
std::bad_alloc
, all exceptions
thrown during the execution of
the algorithm are communicated to the caller. It is
unspecified whether an algorithm implementation will "forge ahead" after
encountering and capturing a user exception.
— end note ]
std::bad_alloc
exception even if one or more
user-provided function objects have exited via an
exception. For example, this can happen when an algorithm fails to
allocate memory while
creating or adding elements to the exception_list
object.
— end note ]
<experimental/exception_list>
synopsisnamespace std { namespace experimental { namespace parallel { inline namespace v2v1{ class exception_list : public exception { public: typedef unspecified iterator; size_t size() const noexcept; iterator begin() const noexcept; iterator end() const noexcept; const char* what() const noexcept override; }; } } } }
The class exception_list
owns a sequence of exception_ptr
objects. The parallel
algorithms may use the exception_list
to communicate uncaught exceptions encountered during parallel execution to the
caller of the algorithm.
The type exception_list::iterator
shall fulfill the requirements of
ForwardIterator
.
size_t size() const noexcept;
exception_ptr
objects contained within the exception_list
.
iterator begin() const noexcept;
exception_ptr
object contained within the exception_list
.
iterator end() const noexcept;
const char* what() const noexcept override;
Function objects passed into parallel algorithms as objects of type BinaryPredicate
,
Compare
, and BinaryOperation
shall not directly or indirectly modify
objects via their arguments.
Parallel algorithms have template parameters named ExecutionPolicy
which describe
the manner in which the execution of these algorithms may be parallelized and the manner in
which they apply the element access functions.
The invocations of element access functions in parallel algorithms invoked with an execution
policy object of type sequential_execution_policy
execute in sequential order in
the calling thread.
The invocations of element access functions in parallel algorithms invoked with an execution
policy object of type parallel_execution_policy
are permitted to execute in an
unordered fashion in either the invoking thread or in a thread implicitly created by the library
to support parallel algorithm execution. Any such invocations executing in the same thread are
indeterminately sequenced with respect to each other.
using namespace std::experimental::parallel; int a[] = {0,1}; std::vector<int> v; for_each(par, std::begin(a), std::end(a), [&](int i) { v.push_back(i*2+1); });The program above has a data race because of the unsynchronized access to the container
v
.
— end example ]
using namespace std::experimental::parallel; std::atomic<int> x = 0; int a[] = {1,2}; for_each(par, std::begin(a), std::end(a), [&](int n) { x.fetch_add(1, std::memory_order_relaxed); // spin wait for another iteration to change the value of x while (x.load(std::memory_order_relaxed) == 1) { } });The above example depends on the order of execution of the iterations, and is therefore undefined (may deadlock). — end example ]
using namespace std::experimental::parallel; int x=0; std::mutex m; int a[] = {1,2}; for_each(par, std::begin(a), std::end(a), [&](int) { m.lock(); ++x; m.unlock(); });The above example synchronizes access to object
x
ensuring that it is
incremented correctly.
— end example ]
The invocations of element access functions in parallel algorithms invoked with an execution
policy of type parallel_vector_execution_policy
are permitted to execute in an unordered fashion in unspecified threads, and unsequenced
with respect to one another within each thread.
parallel_vector_execution_policy
allows the execution of element access functions to be
interleaved on a single thread, synchronization, including the use of mutexes, risks deadlock. Thus the
synchronization with parallel_vector_execution_policy
is restricted as follows:
A standard library function is vectorization-unsafe if it is specified to synchronize with
another function invocation, or another function invocation is specified to synchronize with it, and if
it is not a memory allocation or deallocation function. Vectorization-unsafe standard library functions
may not be invoked by user code called from parallel_vector_execution_policy
algorithms.
using namespace std::experimental::parallel; int x=0; std::mutex m; int a[] = {1,2}; for_each(par_vec, std::begin(a), std::end(a), [&](int) { m.lock(); ++x; m.unlock(); });The above program is invalid because the applications of the function object are not guaranteed to run on different threads. — end example ]
m.lock
on the same thread, which may deadlock.
— end note ]
parallel_execution_policy
or the
parallel_vector_execution_policy
invocation allow the implementation to fall back to
sequential execution if the system cannot parallelize an algorithm invocation due to lack of
resources.
— end note ]
Algorithms invoked with an execution policy object of type execution_policy
execute internally as if invoked with the contained execution policy object.
The semantics of parallel algorithms invoked with an execution policy object of implementation-defined type are implementation-defined.
ExecutionPolicy
algorithm overloads
The Parallel Algorithms Library provides overloads for each of the algorithms named in
Table 1, corresponding to the algorithms with the same name in the C++ Standard Algorithms Library.
For each algorithm in ExecutionPolicy
, which shall be the first template parameter.
In addition, each such overload shall have the new function parameter as the
first function parameter of type ExecutionPolicy&&
.
Unless otherwise specified, the semantics of ExecutionPolicy
algorithm overloads
are identical to their overloads without.
Parallel algorithms shall not participate in overload resolution unless
is_execution_policy<decay_t<ExecutionPolicy>>::value
is true

The class task_block
defines an interface for forking and joining parallel tasks. The define_task_block
and define_task_block_restore_thread
function templates create an object of type task_block
and pass a reference to that object to a user-provided function object.
An object of class task_block
cannot be constructed,
destroyed, copied, or moved except by the implementation of the task
block library. Taking the address of a task_block
object via operator&
is ill-formed. Obtaining its address by any other means (including addressof
) results in a pointer with an unspecified value; dereferencing such a pointer results in undefined behavior.
A task_block
is active if it was created by the nearest enclosing task block, where “task block” refers to an
invocation of define_task_block
or define_task_block_restore_thread
and “nearest enclosing” means the most
recent invocation that has not yet completed. Code designated for execution in another thread by means other
than the facilities in this section (e.g., using thread
or async
) are not enclosed in the task block and a
task_block
passed to (or captured by) such code is not active within that code. Performing any operation on a
task_block
that is not active results in undefined behavior.
When the argument to task_block::run
is called, no task_block
is active, not even the task_block
on which run
was called.
(The function object should not, therefore, capture a task_block
from the surrounding block.)
define_task_block([&](auto& tb) { tb.run([&]{ tb.run([] { f(); }); // Error: tb is not active within run define_task_block([&](auto& tb2) { // Define new task block tb2.run(f); ... }); }); ... });— end example ]

DECAY_COPY(std::forward<F>(f))()
, where DECAY_COPY(std::forward<F>(f))

permitted to run on an unspecified thread created by the implementation in an unordered fashion relative to
the sequence of operations following the call to run(f)
(the continuation), or indeterminately sequenced
within the same thread as the continuation. The call to run
synchronizes with the call to the function
object. The completion of the call to the function object synchronizes with the next invocation of wait
on
the same task_block
or completion of the nearest enclosing task block (i.e., the define_task_block
or
define_task_block_restore_thread
that created this task_block
).

function always returns on the same thread as the one on which it was called.
f

.
Every task_block
has an associated exception list. When the task block starts, its associated exception list is empty.
When an exception is thrown from the user-provided function object passed to define_task_block
or
define_task_block_restore_thread
, it is added to the exception list for that task block. Similarly, when
an exception is thrown from the user-provided function object passed into task_block::run
, the exception
object is added to the exception list associated with the nearest enclosing task block. In both cases, an
implementation may discard any pending tasks that have not yet been invoked. Tasks that are already in
progress are not interrupted except at a call to task_block::run
or task_block::wait
as described below.
If the implementation is able to detect that an exception has been thrown by another task within
the same nearest enclosing task block, then task_block::run
or task_block::wait
may throw
task_canceled_exception
; these instances of task_canceled_exception
are not added to the exception
list of the corresponding task block.
When a task block finishes with a non-empty exception list, the exceptions are aggregated into an exception_list
object, which is then thrown from the task block.
The order of the exceptions in the exception_list
object is unspecified.
