👑 NAME 👑

hiii bestie, welcome to page 3 of the Open MPI manual 💖 this is SHMEM_INT_AND_TO_ALL(3) and it's the whole girl squad of array-AND reducers. Meet them:

shmem_int_and_to_all(3)
shmem_int4_and_to_all(3)
shmem_int8_and_to_all(3)
shmem_long_and_to_all <# shmem-long-and-to-all>(3)
shmem_longlong_and_to_all <# shmem-longlong-and-to-all>(3)
shmem_short_and_to_all <# shmem-short-and-to-all>(3)

and what do they all do? They perform a bitwise AND operation on symmetric arrays over the active set of PEs. that's it, that's the job, no cap ✨

& PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size, pWrk, pSync)

💅 DESCRIPTION 💅

okay so the shared memory (SHMEM) reduction routines compute one or more reductions across symmetric arrays on multiple virtual PEs. A reduction performs an associative binary operation across a set of values. and if you want the whole list of other SHMEM reduction routines (there are so many, they're all iconic 💜), go see intro_shmem(3).

The nreduce argument determines the number of separate reductions to perform. The source array on all PEs in the active set provides one element for each reduction. The results of the reductions get placed in the target array on all PEs in the active set. and the active set? that's defined by the PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size triplet. slay.

The source and target arrays may be the same array, but they may not be overlapping arrays. and as with all SHMEM collective routines, each of these routines assumes that only PEs in the active set call the routine. If a PE not in the active set calls a SHMEM collective routine, undefined behavior results. like, undefined undefined. don't do it 🙈

The arguments are as follows:

target — A symmetric array, of length nreduce elements, to receive the result of the reduction operations. The data type of target varies with the version of the reduction routine being called. When calling from C/C++, refer to the SYNOPSIS section for data type information. When calling from Fortran, the target data types are as follows:
- shmem_int8_and_to_all: Integer, with an element size of 8 bytes
- shmem_int4_and_to_all: Integer, with an element size of 4 bytes
source — A symmetric array, of length nreduce elements, that contains one element for each separate reduction operation. The source argument must have the same data type as target. (twins fr fr 👯)
nreduce — The number of elements in the target and source arrays. nreduce must be of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value.
PE_start — The lowest virtual PE number of the active set of PEs. PE_start must be of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value.
logPE_stride — The log (base 2) of the stride between consecutive virtual PE numbers in the active set. logPE_stride must be of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value.
PE_size — The number of PEs in the active set. PE_size must be of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value.
pWrk — A symmetric work array. The pWrk argument must have the same data type as target. In C/C++, this contains max(nreduce/2 + 1, _SHMEM_REDUCE_MIN_WRKDATA_SIZE) elements. In Fortran, this contains max(nreduce/2 + 1, SHMEM_REDUCE_MIN_WRKDATA_SIZE) elements.
pSync — A symmetric work array. In C/C++, pSync must be of type long and size _SHMEM_REDUCE_SYNC_SIZE. In Fortran, pSync must be of type integer and size SHMEM_REDUCE_SYNC_SIZE. If you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value. Every element of this array must be initialized with the value _SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE (in C/C++) or SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE (in Fortran) before any of the PEs in the active set enter the reduction routine. yes, every single element, i'm serious 🫶

The values of arguments nreduce, PE_start, logPE_stride, and PE_size must be equal on all PEs in the active set. The same target and source arrays, and the same pWrk and pSync work arrays, must be passed to all PEs in the active set. everybody matching, it's giving coordinated ✨

Before any PE calls a reduction routine, you must ensure that the following conditions exist (synchronization via a barrier or some other method is often needed to ensure this):

The pWrk and pSync arrays on all PEs in the active set are not still in use from a prior call to a collective SHMEM routine.
The target array on all PEs in the active set is ready to accept the results of the reduction.

Upon return from a reduction routine, the following are true for the local PE:

The target array is updated.
The values in the pSync array are restored to the original values.

🧚 NOTES 🧚

The terms collective, symmetric, and cache aligned are defined in intro_shmem(3). All SHMEM reduction routines reset the values in pSync before they return, so a particular pSync buffer need only be initialized the first time it is used. cute, low maintenance 💖

You must ensure that the pSync array is not being updated on any PE in the active set while any of the PEs participate in processing of a SHMEM reduction routine. Be careful to avoid the following situations:

If the pSync array is initialized at run time, some type of synchronization is needed to ensure that all PEs in the working set have initialized pSync before any of them enter a SHMEM routine called with the pSync synchronization array.
A pSync or pWrk array can be reused in a subsequent reduction routine call only if none of the PEs in the active set are still processing a prior reduction routine call that used the same pSync or pWrk arrays. In general, this can be assured only by doing some type of synchronization. However, in the special case of reduction routines being called with the same active set, you can allocate two pSync and pWrk arrays and alternate between them on successive calls. (the ol' switcheroo, we love her 💅)

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

Example 1

This Fortran example statically initializes the pSync array and finds the logical AND of the integer variable FOO across all even PEs.

INCLUDE "mpp/shmem.fh"

INTEGER PSYNC(SHMEM_REDUCE_SYNC_SIZE)
DATA PSYNC /SHMEM_REDUCE_SYNC_SIZE*SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE/
PARAMETER (NR=1)
REAL PWRK(MAX(NR/2+1, SHMEM_REDUCE_MIN_WRKDATA_SIZE))
INTEGER FOO, FOOAND
COMMON /COM/ FOO, FOOAND, PWRK
INTRINSIC MY_PE

IF ( MOD(MY_PE(),2) .EQ. 0) THEN
  CALL SHMEM_INT8_AND_TO_ALL(FOOAND, FOO, NR, 0, 1, N$PES/2,
  & PWRK, PSYNC)
  PRINT *, 'Result on PE ', MY_PE(), ' is ', FOOAND
ENDIF

Example 2

Consider the following C call:

shmem_int_and_to_all( target, source, 3, 0, 0, 8, pwrk, psync );

The preceding call is more efficient, but semantically equivalent to, the combination of the following calls:

shmem_int_and_to_all(&(target[0]), &(source[0]), 1, 0, 0, 8,
  pwrk1, psync1);

shmem_int_and_to_all(&(target[1]), &(source[1]), 1, 0, 0, 8,
  pwrk2, psync2);

shmem_int_and_to_all(&(target[2]), &(source[2]), 1, 0, 0, 8,
  pwrk1, psync1);

Note that two sets of pWrk and pSync arrays are used alternately because no synchronization is done between calls. see? told you the alternating thing was real 😌
