|
|
|
|
<p>An MPI program can <em>deadlock</em> if one process is waiting for a
|
|
message from another process that never gets sent. To avoid deadlocks
|
|
when using FFTW’s MPI routines, it is important to know which
|
|
functions are <em>collective</em>: that is, which functions must
|
|
<em>always</em> be called in the <em>same order</em> from <em>every</em>
|
|
process in a given communicator. (For example, <code>MPI_Barrier</code> is
|
|
the canonical example of a collective function in the MPI standard.)
|
|
<span id="index-collective-function-2"></span>
|
|
<span id="index-MPI_005fBarrier"></span>
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>The functions in FFTW that are <em>always</em> collective are: every
|
|
function beginning with ‘<samp>fftw_mpi_plan</samp>’, as well as
|
|
<code>fftw_mpi_broadcast_wisdom</code> and <code>fftw_mpi_gather_wisdom</code>.
|
|
Also, the following functions from the ordinary FFTW interface are
|
|
collective when they are applied to a plan created by an
|
|
‘<samp>fftw_mpi_plan</samp>’ function: <code>fftw_execute</code>,
|
|
<code>fftw_destroy_plan</code>, and <code>fftw_flops</code>.
