-- Renamed TraversalErrorManager to the more general MultiThreadedErrorTracker
-- ErrorTracker is now used throughout the NanoScheduler. In order to properly handle errors, the work previously done by main thread (submit jobs, block on reduce) is now handled in a separate thread. The main thread simply wakes up peroidically and checks whether the reduce result is available or if an error has occurred, and handles each appropriately.
-- EngineFeaturesIntegrationTest checks that -nt and -nct properly throw errors in Walkers
-- Added NanoSchedulerUnitTest for input errors
-- ThreadEfficiencyMonitoring is now disabled by default, and can be enabled with a GATK command line option. This is because the monitoring doesn't differentiate between threads that are supposed to do work, and those that are supposed to wait, and therefore gives misleading results.
-- Build.xml no longer copies the unittest results verbosely
-- Refactored error handling from HMS into utils.TraversalErrorManager, which is now used by HMS and will be usable by NanoScheduler
-- Generalized EngineFeaturesIntegrationTest to test map / reduce error throwing for nt 1, nt 2 and nct 2 (disabled)
-- Added unit tests for failing input iterator in NanoScheduler (fails)
-- Made ErrorThrowing NanoScheduable
-- V3 + V4 algorithm for NanoScheduler. The newer version uses 1 dedicated input thread and n - 1 map/reduce threads. These MapReduceJobs perform map and a greedy reduce. The main thread's only job is to shuttle inputs from the input producer thread, enqueueing MapReduce jobs for each one. We manage the number of map jobs now via a Semaphore instead of a BlockingQueue of fixed size.
-- This new algorithm should consume N00% CPU power for -nct N value.
-- Also a cleaner implementation in general
-- Vastly expanded unit tests
-- Deleted FutureValue and ReduceThread
-- For the pooled caller we were writing diploid no-calls even when other samples were haploid. Changed maxPloidy function to return a defaultPloidy, rather than 0, in the case where all samples are missing.
-- VCF/BCF Writers now create missing genotypes with the ploidy of other samples, or 2 if none are available at all.
-- Updating integration tests for general ploidy, as previously we wrote ./. even when other calls were 0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/0/1/1/1/1/1, but now we write ./././././././././././././././././././././././. (ugly but correct)
-- Previous code was looking for a -1 result from maxPloidy() but the result as actually 0, so instead of writing a diploid no call we were actually writing "unavailable" genotypes, and failing the BCF == VCF test in integration tests. Fixed.
-- Turns out this was consuming 30% of the UG runtime, and causing problems elsewhere.
-- Removed addMissingSamples from VariantcontextUtils, and calls to it
-- Updated VCF / BCF writers to automatically write out a diploid no call for missing samples
-- Added unit tests for this behavior in VariantContextWritersUnitTest
1) SelectVariants could throw a ReviewedStingException (one of the nasty "Bug:") ones if the user requested a sample that wasn't present in the VCF. The walker now
checks for this in the initialize() phase, and throws a more informative error if the situation is detected. If the user simply wants to subset the VCF to
all the samples requested that are actually present in the VCF, the --ALLOW_NONOVERLAPPING_COMMAND_LINE_SAMPLES flag changes this UserException to a Warning,
and does the appropriate subsetting. Added integration tests for this.
2) GenotypeLikelihoods has an unsafe method getLog10GQ(GenotypeType), which is completely broken for multi-allelic sites. I marked that method
as deprecated, and added methods that use the context of the allele ordering (either directly specified or as a VC) to retrieve the appropriate GQ, and
added a unit test to cover this case. VariantsToBinaryPed needs to dynamically calculate the GQ field sometimes (because I have some VCFs with PLs but no GQ).
-- Now prints out a single combined NanoScheduler runtime profile report across all nano schedulers in use. So now if you run with -nt 4 you'll get one combined NanoScheduler profiler across all 4 instances of the NanoScheduler within TraverseXNano.
-- Basically you cannot safely use instance specific ThreadLocal variables, as these cannot be safely cleaned up. The old implementation kept pointers to old writers, with huge tribble block indexes, and eventually we crashed out of integration tests
-- See http://weblogs.java.net/blog/jjviana/archive/2010/06/10/threadlocal-thread-pool-bad-idea-or-dealing-apparent-glassfish-memor for more information
-- New implementation uses a borrow/return schedule with a list of N TraversalEngines managed by the MicroScheduler directly.
-- Can now say -nt 4 and -nct 4 to get 16 threads running for you!
-- TraversalEngines are now ThreadLocal variables in the MicroScheduler.
-- Misc. code cleanup, final variables, some contracts.
-- TraversalProgressMeter now completely generalized, named ProgressMeter in utils.progressmeter. Now just takes "nRecordsProcessed" as an argument to print reads. Completely removes dependence on complex data structures from TraversalProgressMeter. Can be used to measure progress on any task with processing units in genomic locations.
-- a fairly simple, class with no dependency on GATK engine or other features.
-- Currently only used by the TraversalEngine / MicroScheduler but could be used for any purpose now, really.
-- Previously these core progress metering functions were all in TraversalEngine, and available to subclasses like TraverseLoci via inheritance. The problem here is that the upcoming data threads x cpu threads parallelism requires one master copy of the progress metering shared among all traversals, but multiple instantiations of traverse engines themselves.
-- Because the progress metering code has horrible anyway, I've refactored and vastly cleaned up and simplified all of these capabilities into TraversalProgressMeter class. I've simplified down the classes it uses to work (STILL SOME TODOs in there) so that it doesn't reach into the core GATK engine all the time. It should be possible to write some nice tests for it now. By making it its own class, it can protect itself from multi-threaded access with a single synchronized printProgress function instead of carrying around multiple lock objects as before
-- Cleaned up the start up of the progress meter. It's now handled when the meter is created, so each micro scheduler doesn't have to deal with proper initialization timing any longer
-- Simplified and made clear the interface for shutting down the traversal engines. There's no a shutdown method in TraversalEngine that's called once by the MicroScheduler when the entire traversing in over. Nano traversals now properly shut down (was subtle bug I undercovered here). The printing of on traversal done metering is now handled by MicroScheduler
-- The MicroScheduler holds the single master copy of the progress meter, and doles it out to the TraversalEngines (currently 1 but in future commit there will be N).
-- Added a nice function to GenomeAnalysisEngine that returns the regions we will be processing, either the intervals requested or the whole genome. Useful for progress meter but also probably for other infrastructure as well
-- Remove a lot of the sh*ting Bean interface getting and setting in MicroScheduler that's no longer useful. The generic bean is just a shell interface with nothing in it.
-- By removing a lot of these bean accessors and setters many things are now final that used to be dynamic.
This will prevent bugs from occurring when Vanilla make changes to the API
as described here: http://vanillaforums.com/blog/api#configuration
Based on the bug that broke the website Guide section on 9/6/12,
the GATKDocs posting system will probably break in the next release if
this is not applied as a bug fix.
-- I've rewritten the entire NS framework to use a producer / consumer model for input -> map and from map -> reduce. This is allowing us to scale reasonably efficiently up to 4 threads (see figure). Future work on the nano scheduler will be itemized in a separate JIRA entry.
-- Restructured the NS code for clarity. Docs everywhere.
-- This is considered version 1.0
-Off by default; engine fork isolates new code paths from old code paths,
so no integration tests change yet
-Experimental implementation is currently BROKEN due to a serious issue
involving file spans. No one can/should use the experimental features
until I've patched this issue.
-There are temporarily two independent versions of LocusIteratorByState.
Anyone changing one version should port the change to the other (if possible),
and anyone adding unit tests for one version should add the same unit tests
for the other (again, if possible). This situation will hopefully be extremely
temporary, and last only until the experimental implementation is proven.
-- The NanoScheduler is doing a good job at tracking important information like time spent in map/reduce/input etc.
-- Can be disabled with static boolean in MicroScheduler if we have problems
-- See GSA-515 Nanoscheduler GSA-549 Retire TraverseReads and TraverseLoci after testing confirms nano scheduler version in single threaded version is fine
-- Closes GSA-515 Nanoscheduler GSA-542 Good interface to nanoScheduler
-- Old -nt means dataThreads
-- New -cnt (--num_cpu_threads_per_data_thread) gives you n cpu threads for each data thread in the system
-- Cleanup logic for handling data and cpu threading in HMS, LMS, and MS
-- GATKRunReport reports the total number of threads in use by the GATK, not just the nt value
-- Removed the io,cpu tags for nt. Stupid system if you ask me. Cleaned up the GenomeAnalysisEngine and ThreadAllocation handling to be totally straightforward now
-- Separate updating cumulative traversal metrics from printing progress. There's now an updateCumulativeMetrics function and a printProgress() that only takes a current position
-- printProgress now soles relies on the time since the last progress to decide if it will print or not. No longer uses the number of cycles, since this isn't reliable in the case of nano scheduling
-- GenomeAnalysisEngine now maintains a pointer to the master cumulative metrics. getCumulativeMetrics never returns null, which was handled in some parts of the code but not others.
-- Update all of the traversals to use the new updateCumulativeMetrics, printProgress model
-- Added progress callback to nano scheduler. Every bufferSize elements this callback is invoked, allowing us to smoothly update the progress meter in the NanoScheduler
-- Rename MapFunction to NanoSchedulerMap and the same for reduce.
-- Refactored TraverseLoci into old linear version and nano scheduling version
-- Temp. GATK argument to say how many nano threads to use
-- Can efficiently scale to 3 threads before blocking on input
-- Instead of returning directly the result of map(), returns a MapResult object with the value and a reduceMe flag.
-- Reduce function respects the reduceMe flag
-- Code cleanup and more documentation
-- Helpful for understanding where the time goes to each bit of the code.
-- Controlled by a local static boolean, to avoid the potential overhead in general
-- TraverseReadsNano prints progress at the end of each traversal unit
-- Fix bugs in TraversalEngine printProgress
-- Synchronize the method so we don't get multiple logged outputs when two or more HMSs call printProgress before initialization at the start!
-- Fix the logic for mustPrint, which actually had the logic of mustNotPrint. Now we see the done log line that was always supposed to be there
-- Fix output formatting, as the done() line was incorrectly shifting over the % complete by 1 char as 100.0% didn't fit in %4.1f
-- Add clearer doc on -PF argument so that people know that the performance log can be generated to standard out if one wants
- VariantAnnotatorEngine changed to call genotype annotations even if pilups and allele -> likelihood mappings are not present. Current genotype annotations altered to check for null pilupes and null mappings.
-- Confirmed that reads spanning off the end of the chromosome don't cause an exception by adding integration test for a single read that starts 7 bases from the end of chromosome 1 and spans 90 bases or so off. Added pileup integration test to ensure this behavior continues to work
-- In the process uncovered two strange things
1 -- qualityScoreByFullCovariateKey was created but never used. Seems like a cache?
2 -- Discovered nasty bug in BaseRecalibrator: https://jira.broadinstitute.org/browse/GSA-534
-- These are like read filters but can be applied either on input, on output, of handled by the walker
-- Previous example of BAQ now uses the general framework
-- Resulted in massive conceptual cleanup of SAMDataSource and ReadProperties! Yeah!
-- BQSR now uses this framework. We can now do BQSR on input, on output, or within a walker
-- PrintReads now handles all read transformers in the walker in map, enabling us to parallelize PrintReads with BAQ and BQSR
-- Currently BQSR is excepting in parallel, which subsequent commit with fix
-- Removed global variable setting in GenomeAnalysisEngine for BAQ, as command line parameters are cleanly handled by ReadTransformer infrastructure
-- In principle ReadFilters are just a special kind of ReadTransformer, but this refactoring is larger than I can do. It's a JIRA entry
-- Many files touched simply due to the refactoring and renaming of classes
-- A higher level interface to declare parallelism capability of a walker. This interface means that the walker can be multi-threaded, but doesn't necessarily support TreeReducible interface, which forces you to have a combine ReduceType operation that isn't appropriate for parallel read walkers
-- Updated ReadWalkers to implement ThreadSafeMapReduce not TreeReducible
-- TraverseReadsNano modified to read in all input data before invoking maps, so the input to TraverseReadsNano is a MapData object holding the sam record, the ref context, and the refmetadatatracker.
-- Update ValidateRODForReads to be tree reducible, using synchronized map and explicitly sort the output map from locations -> counts in onTraversalDone
-- Expanded integration tests to test nt 1, 2, 4.
-- Yes, GenomeLoc.compareTo was broken. The compareTo function only considered the contig and start position, but not the stop, when comparing genome locs.
-- Updated GenomeLoc.compareTo function to account for stop. Updated GATK code where necessary to fix resulting problems that depended on this.
-- Added unit tests to ensure that hashcode, equals, and compareTo are all correct for GenomeLocs
In addition, fix for GSA-310. If supplied -rf argument does not match a known read filter, the list of read filters will be printed, and users directed to the documentation for more information.
-- Stateless objects are required for nano-scheduling. This means you can take the RefMetaDataTracker provided by ReadBasedReferenceOrderedView, store it way, get another from the same view, and the original one behaves the same.
-- Previous behavior was unnecessary and causes all sorts of problems with RODs for reads. The old implementation simply failed in this case. The new code handles this correctly by forcing shards to have all of their data on a single contig.
-- Added a PrintReads integration test to ensure this behavior is correct
-- Adding test BAMs that have < 200 reads and span across contig boundaries
-- shardSpan is only calculated when there some ROD is live in the GATK. No sense in paying the cost per read when you don't need it
-- Update contract to allow null span or unmapped span (good catch unittests!)
-- Deleted ReadMetaDataTracker
-- Added function to ReadShard to give us the span from the left most position of the reads in the shard to the right most, which is needed for the new view
-- ReadMetaDataTracker is dead! Long live the RefMetaDataTracker. Read walkers will soon just take RefMetaDataTracker objects. In this commit they take a class that trivially extends them
-- Rewrote ReadBasedReferenceOrderedView to produce RefMetaDataTrackers not the old class.
-- This new implementation produces thread-safe objects (i.e., holds no points to shared state). Suitable for use (to be tested) with nano scheduling
-- Simplified interfaces to use the simplest data structures (PeekableIterator) not the LocusAwareSeekableIterator, since I both hate those classes and this is on the long term trajectory to remove those from the GATK entirely.
-- Massively expanded DataProvider unit tests for ReadBasedReferenceOrderedView
-- Note that the old implementation of offset -> ROD in ReadRefMetaDataTracker was broken for any read not completely matching the reference. Rather than provide broken code the ReadMetaDataTracker only provides a "bag of RODs" interface. If you want to work with the relationship between the read and the RODs in your tool you need to manage the CIGAR element itself.
-- This commit breaks the new read walker BQSR, but Ryan knows this is coming
-- Subsequent commit will be retiring / fixing ValidateRODForReads
Reverting back to the original implementation, but now including write N's and write Q0's due to walkers that look at the same read multiple times in different reference windows
-- Old way (filtering for Q > 17 bases) resulted in biased FS when the site was good but there was a
systematic shift in the QUAL of REF and ALT between strands of the reads (sometimes happens)
-- New way (taking all bases) was consistent with BaseQualRankSum and other tests, but there can be
a lot of low qual reference bases on one strand in some techs (ION/PROTON/PACBIO) because of the
preference for introducing an indel vs. a mismatch.
-- This implementation allows us to have our cake and eat it to by computing both p-values, and
taking the maximum one (i.e., least significant).
-- No integration tests updated yet -- still exploring the consequences of this change
-- TraversalReadsNano only creates the NanoScheduler once, and shuts it down onTraversalDone
-- Nicer debugging output in NanoScheduler
-- ReadShard has a getBufferSize() method now
-- I'm seeing a lot of people trying to use BinaryTagCovariate in the community. They really shouldn't do this, so I moved it to private.
-- Throw an exception if its required bintag argument is missing
-- Check explicitly if user is requesting DinucCovariate and tell them that its been retired in favor of ContextCovariate
-- Show the type (Required, Experimental, Standard) of the covariates when running --list
A number of functions int he sampleDB looked to be assuming that samples could not share IDs (e.g. sample IDs are unique, so a sample present in two families could not be represented by multiple Sample objects). Added an assertion in the SampleDBBuilder to document/test this assumption.
MVLikelihoodRatio now uses the trio methods from SampleDB.
