Grid

Note

A Grid handle can be safely destroyed after Transform handles have been created, since internal reference counting used to prevent the release of resources while still in use.

Typedefs

typedef void *SpfftGrid

Grid handle.

Functions

SpfftError spfft_grid_create(SpfftGrid *grid, int maxDimX, int maxDimY, int maxDimZ, int maxNumLocalZColumns, SpfftProcessingUnitType processingUnit, int maxNumThreads)

Constructor for a local grid.

Parameters:

  • grid – [out] Handle to grid.

  • maxDimX – [in] Maximum dimension in x.

  • maxDimY – [in] Maximum dimension in y.

  • maxDimZ – [in] Maximum dimension in z.

  • maxNumLocalZColumns – [in] Maximum number of z-columns in frequency domain.

  • maxNumThreads – [in] The maximum number of threads, transforms created with this grid are allowed to use. If smaller than 1, the OpenMP default value is used.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_create_distributed(SpfftGrid *grid, int maxDimX, int maxDimY, int maxDimZ, int maxNumLocalZColumns, int maxLocalZLength, SpfftProcessingUnitType processingUnit, int maxNumThreads, MPI_Comm comm, SpfftExchangeType exchangeType)

Constructor for a distributed grid.

  • processingUnit – [in] The processing unit type to prepare for. Can be SPFFT_PU_HOST or SPFFT_PU_GPU or SPFFT_PU_HOST | SPFFT_PU_GPU.

  • maxNumThreads – [in] The maximum number of threads, transforms created with this grid are allowed to use. If smaller than 1, the OpenMP default value is used.

  • comm – [in] The MPI communicator to use. Will be duplicated for internal use.

  • exchangeType – [in] The type of MPI exchange to use. Possible values are SPFFT_EXCH_DEFAULT, SPFFT_EXCH_BUFFERED, SPFFT_EXCH_COMPACT_BUFFERED and SPFFT_EXCH_UNBUFFERED.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_destroy(SpfftGrid grid)

Destroy a grid.

A grid can be safely destroyed independet from any related transforms. The internal memory is released, once all associated transforms are destroyed as well (through internal reference counting).

Parameters:

grid – [in] Handle to grid.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_max_dim_x(SpfftGrid grid, int *dimX)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • dimX – [out] Maximum dimension in x.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_max_dim_y(SpfftGrid grid, int *dimY)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • dimY – [out] Maximum dimension in y.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_max_dim_z(SpfftGrid grid, int *dimZ)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • dimZ – [out] Maximum dimension in z.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_max_num_local_z_columns(SpfftGrid grid, int *maxNumLocalZColumns)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • maxNumLocalZColumns – [out] Maximum number of z-columns in frequency domain of the local MPI rank.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_max_local_z_length(SpfftGrid grid, int *maxLocalZLength)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • maxLocalZLength – [out] Maximum length in z in space domain of the local MPI rank. rank.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_processing_unit(SpfftGrid grid, SpfftProcessingUnitType *processingUnit)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • processingUnit – [out] The processing unit, the grid has prepared for. Can be SPFFT_PU_HOST or SPFFT_PU_GPU or SPFFT_PU_HOST | SPFFT_PU_GPU.

Returns:

Error code or SPFFT_SUCCESS.

SpfftError spfft_grid_device_id(SpfftGrid grid, int *deviceId)

Access a grid parameter.

Parameters:

  • grid – [in] Handle to grid.

  • deviceId – [out] The GPU device id used. Returns always 0, if no GPU support is enabled.

Returns:
