barrier, shmem_barrier_all - Registers the arrival of a processing element (PE) at a barrier and suspends PE execution until all other PEs arrive at the barrier

NAME barrier, shmem_barrier_all - Registers the arrival of a processing element (PE) at a barrier and suspends PE execution until all other PEs arrive at the barrier SYNOPSIS C or C++: void barrier(void); void shmem_barrier_all(void); Fortran: CALL BARRIER CALL SHMEM_BARRIER_ALL DESCRIPTION The shmem_barrier_all function registers the arrival of a PE at a barrier. Barriers are a fast mechanism for synchronizing all PEs at once. This routine causes a PE to suspend execution until all PEs have called shmem_barrier_all. This function must be used with PEs started by start_pes(3). Prior to synchronizing with other PEs, shmem_barrier_all ensures completion of all previously issued local memory stores and remote memory updates issued via shared memory routine calls such as shmem_put32(3). EXAMPLES setup_data() { if (_my_pe() == 0) { setup(); } /* * Force all tasks to wait for PE 0 to complete * routine setup(). */ shmem_barrier_all(); } SEE ALSO shmem_barrier(3), start_pes(3),
