From bbeaab7e64f50fb303008b065894f58d7563c7ad Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jeffrey Wilcke Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2016 13:06:10 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] cmd/utils, miner: A/B testing JIT VM. Disabled for miners This PR introduces a 10% probability that you'll run the client with the JIT enabled testing the new client and helps us potentially catch errors when reported. This feature is **disabled** for miners (disabling the JIT completely). The JIT can however be force for miners if they enable both --jitvm and --forcejit. --- cmd/utils/flags.go | 14 +++++++++++++- miner/worker.go | 10 +++++++++- 2 files changed, 22 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/cmd/utils/flags.go b/cmd/utils/flags.go index 3f54b40ca..faba32ce0 100644 --- a/cmd/utils/flags.go +++ b/cmd/utils/flags.go @@ -22,11 +22,13 @@ import ( "io/ioutil" "math" "math/big" + "math/rand" "os" "path/filepath" "runtime" "strconv" "strings" + "time" "github.com/codegangsta/cli" "github.com/ethereum/ethash" @@ -659,6 +661,16 @@ func MakeSystemNode(name, version string, extra []byte, ctx *cli.Context) *node. // Configure the Ethereum service accman := MakeAccountManager(ctx) + // initialise new random number generator + rand := rand.New(rand.NewSource(time.Now().UnixNano())) + // get enabled jit flag + jitEnabled := ctx.GlobalBool(VMEnableJitFlag.Name) + // if the jit is not enabled enable it for 10 pct of the people + if !jitEnabled && rand.Float64() < 0.1 { + jitEnabled = true + glog.V(logger.Info).Infoln("You're one of the lucky few that will try out the JIT VM (random).
