# execution-ucx

`execution-ucx` is a full-featured OpenUCX runtime context based on the C++26 `P2300` `std::execution` proposal. It is designed to unify all UCX communication tasks (both control plane and data plane) within the `ucx_context`'s worker thread. This approach eliminates lock contention and reduces thread switching, achieving ultimate performance.

This project currently uses Meta's [libunifex](https://github.com/facebookexperimental/libunifex) as the implementation for `std::execution`, but it can be easily switched to NVIDIA's [stdexec](https://github.com/NVIDIA/stdexec) or other compatible implementations.

Its design goal is to provide an efficient, flexible, and composable asynchronous RDMA communication backend for modern C++ applications.

![Architecture](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/MoFHeka/execution-ucx/main/doc/ucx_context.png)

## Core Features

*   **Based on `std::execution`**: Utilizes the latest C++ asynchronous model, offering an expressive and composable API.
*   **High Performance**: All operations are executed in a dedicated `ucx_context` thread, avoiding multithreading synchronization overhead and maximizing UCX performance.
*   **Active Message Support**: Built-in efficient Active Message (`ucx_am_context`) implementation, supporting zero-copy and callback handling.
*   **Connection Management**: Automated connection establishment, caching, and management (`ucx_connection_manager`).
*   **Memory Management**: Integrated UCX memory registration/deregistration (`ucx_memory_resource`), simplifying RDMA operations.
*   **CUDA Support**: Seamless support for CUDA device memory, enabling GPU-Direct RDMA (GDR).
*   **Extensibility**: Modular design allows for easy extension to support new protocols or hardware.
*   **General-Purpose RPC**: A flexible RPC module (`rpc`) for type-safe, cross-process function calls, supporting service discovery.

## Core Concepts

*   `ucx_context`: The core component that encapsulates `ucp_worker_h` and drives all asynchronous operations. It has its own thread for polling UCX events and executing tasks.
*   `ucx_am_context`: The Active Message context, providing an interface for sending and receiving Active Messages.
*   `RpcDispatcher`: The central class for registering and invoking RPC functions. It manages function signatures and handles data serialization.
*   `ucx_connection`: Encapsulates `ucp_ep_h`, representing a connection to a remote peer.
*   `ucx_connection_manager`: Manages and reuses `ucx_connection`, handling connection establishment and teardown.
*   `ucx_memory_resource`: A C++ PMR-style memory resource for allocating registered memory that can be used directly by UCX for RDMA operations.

## Dependencies

*   **Bazel**: >= 7.0.0
*   **C++ Compiler**: C++17 support
*   **OpenUCX**: v1.18.1 or later
*   **libunifex**: (default) As the `std::execution` implementation
*   **liburing**: A dependency for `libunifex`
*   **Googletest**: For unit tests
*   **(Optional) CUDA Toolkit**: For building with GPU support
*   **(Optional) Various Communication Interface**: Please modify the [OpenUCX BUILD file](third_party/openucx/BUILD.bazel) to select your preferred options. It is recommended to install the [Nvidia HPC SDK](https://developer.nvidia.com/hpc-sdk)

## Build and Test

The project is built using Bazel.

1.  **Build the project**:
    ```bash
    bazel build //ucx_context:ucx_am_context
    ```

2.  **Run tests (CPU)**:
    ```bash
    bazel test //ucx_context:ucx_am_context_test
    ```

3.  **Run tests (CUDA)**:
    Requires a local installation of the CUDA Toolkit. Bazel will automatically detect it and enable CUDA support.
    ```bash
    bazel test //ucx_context:ucx_am_context_test --@rules_cuda//cuda:enable=True
    ```

## Usage Example

The following is a simplified example demonstrating how to send and receive an Active Message using `ucx_am_context`. It is based on the logic from the `TEST_F(UcxAmTest, SmallMessageTransfer)` test case.
For more details, please refer to the [test code](ucx_context/ucx_am_context_test.cpp)

## API Reference

This section details the primary APIs provided by `ucx_am_context` for network communication, based on the `std::execution` model. These functions return senders that can be used within coroutines or with `unifex::sync_wait`.

#### Connection Management

*   **`connect_endpoint(scheduler, dst_saddr, addrlen)`**
    *   **Description**: Establishes a connection to a remote peer specified by a socket address.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `dst_saddr`: A `std::unique_ptr<sockaddr>` for the destination address.
        *   `addrlen`: The length of the socket address.
        *   An optional `src_saddr` can be provided.
    *   **Returns**: A sender that produces a connection ID (`std::uint64_t`) on success.

*   **`connect_endpoint(scheduler, address_buffer)`**
    *   **Description**: Establishes a connection using a remote worker's UCX address.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `address_buffer`: A `std::vector<std::byte>` containing the remote UCX worker address.
    *   **Returns**: A sender that produces a connection ID (`std::uint64_t`) on success.

*   **`accept_endpoint(scheduler, socket, addrlen)`**
    *   **Description**: Listens for and accepts incoming connections on a given socket address.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `socket`: A `std::unique_ptr<sockaddr>` for the listening address.
        *   `addrlen`: The length of the socket address.
    *   **Returns**: A sender that produces a `std::vector<std::pair<std::uint64_t, std::error_code>>`, where each pair represents a newly accepted connection's ID and status.

*   **`handle_error_connection(scheduler, handler)`**
    *   **Description**: Registers a handler for connection errors. The handler decides whether to attempt reconnection.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `handler`: A callable `std::function<bool(std::uint64_t, T)>` where T can be either `ucs_status_t` or `std::error_code`. It receives the connection ID and status. Return `true` to reconnect, `false` to close.
    *   **Returns**: A sender that completes with no value.

#### Data Transfer

*   **`connection_send(scheduler, conn_id, data)`**
    *   **Description**: Sends an Active Message. Overloads exist for different connection identifiers (`conn_pair_t&`, `std::uint64_t`, `UcxConnection&`) and data types (`ucx_am_data&`, `UcxAmData&&`, `ucx_am_iovec&`, `UcxAmIovec&&`).
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `conn_id`: The identifier for the connection.
        *   `data`: The data payload to send. Rvalue versions (`&&`) take ownership.
    *   **Returns**: A sender that completes with no value on success.

*   **`connection_recv(scheduler, data)`**
    *   **Description**: Receives an Active Message.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `data`: A `ucx_am_data&` to be filled with the received message. An overload takes a `ucx_memory_type` to allocate the buffer internally.
    *   **Returns**: A sender that produces an `active_message_bundle` on success.

*   **`connection_recv_header(scheduler)`**
    *   **Description**: Receives only the header of an incoming message. This is useful for two-phase receive (rendezvous protocol), where the data payload is received in a separate step.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
    *   **Returns**: A sender producing a `std::variant<std::pair<size_t, UcxHeader>, active_message_bundle>`. For rendezvous messages, it contains a key (`size_t`) and the `UcxHeader`. For eager messages, it contains the full `active_message_bundle`.

*   **`connection_recv_buffer(scheduler, am_desc_key, buffer)`**
    *   **Description**: Receives the data payload for a rendezvous message identified by a key.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `scheduler`: The `ucx_am_context` scheduler.
        *   `am_desc_key`: The key obtained from `connection_recv_header`.
        *   `buffer`: A `UcxBuffer&&` or `UcxBufferVec&&` to receive the data. An overload takes a `ucx_memory_type` to allocate the buffer internally.
    *   **Returns**: A sender producing an `active_message_buffer_bundle` (for `UcxBuffer`) or `active_message_iovec_buffer_bundle` (for `UcxBufferVec`) on success.

## RPC Framework (`rpc`)

On top of the low-level Active Message API, `execution-ucx` provides a high-level, type-safe RPC framework. This allows developers to register C++ functions on a server and call them from a client as if they were local, with automatic serialization of arguments and return values. It also includes a service discovery mechanism.

### Usage Example

This example demonstrates an end-to-end RPC workflow: a server registers a function, and a client discovers it, calls it, and verifies the result.

#### rpc_example.cpp

```cpp
#include <cassert>
#include <iostream>
#include <map>
#include <string>
#include <vector>

#include "rpc_core/rpc_dispatcher.hpp"

// Use declarations for clarity
using eux::rpc::function_id_t;
using eux::rpc::ParamMeta;
using eux::rpc::ParamType;
using eux::rpc::PrimitiveValue;
using eux::rpc::RpcDispatcher;
using eux::rpc::RpcFunctionSignature;
using eux::rpc::RpcRequestHeader;
using eux::rpc::session_id_t;
namespace data = cista::offset;

// A simple function to be exposed via RPC
int add(int a, int b) { return a + b; }

int main() {
  // 1. A mock central registry for service discovery.
  // In a real application, this could be a key-value store like etcd or Redis.
  std::map<std::string, cista::byte_buf> registry;

// 2. Setup Server B (the service provider).
  // It creates a dispatcher, registers a function, and publishes its
  // signatures.
  RpcDispatcher dispatcher_B("server_B_instance");
  dispatcher_B.register_function_raw(function_id_t{100}, &add,
                                 data::string{"add_func"});

// Publish signatures to the central registry.
  registry["server_B_instance"] = dispatcher_B.get_all_signatures();
  std::cout << "Server B registered 'add_func' and published its signature."
            << std::endl;

// 3. Client A (the caller) discovers and calls the function.
  // --- Discovery Phase ---
  auto serialized_sigs_it = registry.find("server_B_instance");
  assert(serialized_sigs_it != registry.end());

auto deserialized_sigs =
      cista::deserialize<data::vector<RpcFunctionSignature>>(
          serialized_sigs_it->second);
  assert(deserialized_sigs != nullptr);

std::optional<function_id_t> target_function_id;
  for (const auto& sig : *deserialized_sigs) {
    if (sig.function_name == data::string("add_func")) {
      target_function_id = sig.id;
      break;
    }
  }
  assert(target_function_id.has_value());
  std::cout << "Client A discovered 'add_func' with ID: "
            << target_function_id.value().v_ << std::endl;

// --- RPC Call Phase ---
  RpcRequestHeader request{};
  request.function_id = target_function_id.value();
  request.session_id = session_id_t{2025};

ParamMeta p1{};
  p1.type = ParamType::PRIMITIVE_INT32;
  p1.value.emplace<PrimitiveValue>(25);
  request.add_param(std::move(p1));

ParamMeta p2{};
  p2.type = ParamType::PRIMITIVE_INT32;
  p2.value.emplace<PrimitiveValue>(17);
  request.add_param(std::move(p2));

auto request_buffer = cista::serialize(request);

// Simulate sending the request to Server B's dispatcher and receiving a
  // response. In a real system, this buffer would be sent over the network
  // using ucx_am_context.
  auto response_pair = dispatcher_B.dispatch(std::move(request_buffer));
  auto& response_header = response_pair.header;

// --- Verification Phase ---
  assert(response_header.session_id.v_ == 2025);
  assert(response_header.results.size() == 1);
  int32_t result = response_header.get_primitive<int32_t>(0);
  assert(result == 42); // 25 + 17
  assert(response_header.status.value == 0);

std::cout << "Client A called 'add_func(25, 17)' and got result: " << result
            << std::endl;
  std::cout << "RPC call successful!" << std::endl;

return 0;
}
```

### API Reference

This section details the primary APIs provided by `RpcDispatcher`.

*   **`RpcDispatcher(instance_name)`**
    *   **Description**: Constructs an `RpcDispatcher`.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `instance_name`: A `data::string` to identify this dispatcher instance, used in function signatures for service discovery.

*   **`register_function_raw(id, func, name)`**
    *   **Description**: Registers a C++ callable (function, lambda, etc.) as an RPC function.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `id`: A `function_id_t` (strong type over `uint64_t`) to uniquely identify the function.
        *   `func`: The callable to register.
        *   `name`: A human-readable `data::string` name for the function, used for service discovery.

*   **`dispatch(request_buffer, [input_data])`**
    *   **Description**: Deserializes a request from a buffer, invokes the corresponding function, and returns the result. This overload is for functions that either take no context or take a context by reference (`&`).
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `request_buffer`: A `cista::byte_buf&&` containing the serialized `RpcRequestHeader`.
        *   `input_data`: (Optional) An lvalue reference to a context object to be passed to the function.
    *   **Returns**: An `RpcInvokeResult` containing the response header and any context object returned by the function.

*   **`dispatch_move(request_buffer, input_data)`**
    *   **Description**: Similar to `dispatch`, but moves the context object into the called function. This is intended for contexts that manage resources and whose ownership should be transferred, such as `UcxBufferVec`.
    *   **Parameters**:
        *   `request_buffer`: A `cista::byte_buf&&` with the serialized request.
        *   `input_data`: An rvalue reference (`&&`) to the context object.
    *   **Returns**: An `RpcInvokeResult` containing the response header and any returned context.

*   **`get_all_signatures()`**
    *   **Description**: Retrieves the signatures of all registered functions and serializes them. This is the core of the service discovery mechanism.
    *   **Returns**: A `cista::byte_buf` containing a serialized `data::vector<RpcFunctionSignature>`. A client can deserialize this buffer to learn about the functions available on the server.
