Detailed Description

Macro Definition Documentation

#define STARPU_VALUE

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by a pointer to a constant value and the size of the constant

#define STARPU_CALLBACK

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by a pointer to a callback function

#define STARPU_CALLBACK_WITH_ARG

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by two pointers: one to a callback function, and the other to be given as an argument to the callback function; this is equivalent to using both STARPU_CALLBACK and STARPU_CALLBACK_WITH_ARG.

#define STARPU_CALLBACK_ARG

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by a pointer to be given as an argument to the callback function

#define STARPU_PRIORITY

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by a integer defining a priority level

#define STARPU_DATA_ARRAY

TODO

#define STARPU_EXECUTE_ON_WORKER

this macro is used when calling starpu_task_insert(), and must be followed by an integer value specifying the worker on which to execute the task (as specified by starpu_task::execute_on_a_specific_worker)

#define STARPU_TAG

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by a tag.

#define STARPU_FLOPS

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by an amount of floating point operations, as a double. Users MUST explicitly cast into double, otherwise parameter passing will not work.

#define STARPU_SCHED_CTX

this macro is used when calling starpu_insert_task(), and must be followed by the id of the scheduling context to which we want to submit the task.

Function Documentation

int starpu_insert_task ( struct starpu_codelet cl,
  ... 
)

Create and submit a task corresponding to cl with the following arguments. The argument list must be zero-terminated.

The arguments following the codelet can be of the following types:

When using STARPU_DATA_ARRAY, the access mode of the data handles is not defined, it will be taken from the codelet ::modes or ::dyn_modes field.

Parameters to be passed to the codelet implementation are defined through the type STARPU_VALUE. The function starpu_codelet_unpack_args() must be called within the codelet implementation to retrieve them.

void starpu_codelet_pack_args ( void **  arg_buffer,
size_t *  arg_buffer_size,
  ... 
)

Pack arguments of type STARPU_VALUE into a buffer which can be given to a codelet and later unpacked with the function starpu_codelet_unpack_args().

void starpu_codelet_unpack_args ( void *  cl_arg,
  ... 
)

Retrieve the arguments of type STARPU_VALUE associated to a task automatically created using the function starpu_insert_task().

struct starpu_task * starpu_task_build ( struct starpu_codelet cl,
  ... 
)
read

Create a task corresponding to cl with the following arguments. The argument list must be zero-terminated. The arguments following the codelet are the same as the ones for the function starpu_insert_task().
