okay bestie come sit with me for a sec, because this is the page for shmem_longlong_prod_to_all and all of its besties. they're all section 3 (that's the (3) bestie, it's in the manual name iykyk), they all ship from Open MPI, and they all do the exact same thing:

Performs a product reduction across a set of processing elements (PEs) πŸ’…

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

so here's the tea: the shared memory (SHMEM) reduction routines compute one or more reductions across symmetric arrays on multiple virtual PEs. a reduction is just an associative binary operation run across a set of values. and yeah there are other SHMEM reduction routines in the family β€” for the whole list go peek at intro_shmem(3). 🫢

now, like literally every SHMEM collective routine, each of these routines assumes that only PEs in the active set call the routine. if a PE that is not in the active set calls a SHMEM collective routine, you get undefined behavior. no cap, that's the πŸ’€ zone, don't do it.

the nreduce argument decides how many 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 is defined by the PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size triplet. cute, right? ✨

the source and target arrays may be the same array, but they may not be overlapping arrays. periodt.

the arguments are as follows:

  • target β€” a symmetric array of length nreduce elements to receive the results of the reduction operations. the data type of target varies with the version of the reduction routine being called and the language used. 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_comp4_prod_to_all: Complex, with an element size equal to two 4-byte real values.
    • shmem_comp8_prod_to_all: Complex, with an element size equal to two 8-byte real values.
    • shmem_int4_prod_to_all: Integer, with an element size of 4 bytes
    • shmem_int8_prod_to_all: Integer, with an element size of 8 bytes
    • shmem_real4_prod_to_all: Real, with an element size of 4 bytes
    • shmem_real8_prod_to_all: Real, with an element size of 8 bytes
    • shmem_real16_prod_to_all: Real, with an element size of 16 bytes
  • source β€” 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.
  • nreduce β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” 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 β€” a symmetric work array. in C/C++, pSync is of type long and size _SHMEM_REDUCE_SYNC_SIZE. in Fortran, pSync is of type integer and size SHMEM_REDUCE_SYNC_SIZE. if you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value. before any of the PEs in the active set enter the reduction routine, every element of this array must be initialized with the value _SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE (in C/C++) or SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE (in Fortran).

okay now the rules of the group chat πŸ“‹:

the values of the 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. before any PE calls a reduction routine, you must make sure the following conditions exist (synchronization via a barrier or some other method is often needed to make sure of 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.

πŸŽ€ NOTES πŸŽ€

the terms collective, symmetric, and cache aligned are all defined in intro_shmem(3). also, all SHMEM reduction routines reset the values in pSync before they return, so a particular pSync buffer only needs to be initialized the first time it is used. one and done, we love efficiency. ✨

⚠️ and now the serious bit, bestie. 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 of 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. slay.


πŸ”₯ EXAMPLES πŸ”₯

Example 1: this Fortran example statically initializes the pSync array and finds the product of the real variable FOO across all the 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 FOO, FOOPROD, PWRK(MAX(NR/2+1,SHMEM_REDUCE_MIN_WRKDATA_SIZE))
COMMON /COM/ FOO, FOOPROD, PWRK
INTRINSIC MY_PE

IF ( MOD(MY_PE(),2) .EQ. 0) THEN
  CALL SHMEM_COMP8_PROD_TO_ALL(FOOPROD, FOO, NR, 0, 1, N$PES/2,
  & PWRK, PSYNC)
  PRINT *, 'Result on PE ', MY_PE(), ' is ', FOOPROD
ENDIF

Example 2: consider the following C/C++ call:

shmem_short_prod_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_short_prod_to_all(&(target[0]), &(source[0]), 1, 0, 0, 8,
  pwrk1, psync1);
shmem_short_prod_to_all(&(target[1]), &(source[1]), 1, 0, 0, 8,
  pwrk2, psync2);
shmem_short_prod_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. πŸ‘‘
