This seems biased against returning 1

The old rng is also broken here, which is fun. But basically the issue is that it's a [0, n) interval. So to get 0 and 1 you pass in 2.

Though I'll see if anyone that's using this is actually checking that.
…pen interval and not a closed one

@d-netto could you check the change I made to the GC code there. It looked to me that it was assuming that cong return 0 to max in a closed interval and that's not exactly correct. |

What matters here is that we want to generate a random number in 0, 1, ... markthreads - 1. It seems like the previous code was generating random numbers in [0, max], so that's why we have the markthreads - 1 in there. If the new implementation is generating random numbers in [0, max) then your change is fine. |

The old code was also open :) |

What about the: do {...} while (x > max)? |

Ah OK, there is a --max in there. |

The first line in the old implementation does max--. I think when I ported it from blogpost it came from it was there and wrong. |

I believe we should backport this as the consequences of the scheduler being non-random seems worse than the scheduler being a little slower? |

Do we have actual examples where the non-randomness causes things to break? |

Something along these lines? Maybe there's more to attribute the difference to though % julia +1.10.5 -t6
julia> foo() = @sync for _ in 1:Threads.nthreads()
Threads.@spawn for _ in 1:100000
yield()
end
end
foo (generic function with 1 method)
julia> using Chairmarks

Also, the backport PR commits including references to PRs that weren't included makes it much harder to figure out whether something was actually backported. @KristofferC |
