|
| <h4>Purpose</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
| <p>Performs an atomic fetch-and-increment operation on a symmetric data object.
|
| </p>
|
|
|
| <h4>C syntax</h4>
|
|
|
| <pre>
|
| #include <shmem.h>
|
|
|
| long long shmem_longlong_finc(long long *target, int pe);
|
|
|
| </pre>
|
|
|
| <h4>Parameters</h4>
|
|
|
|
|
| <dl>
|
| <dt class="bold">INPUT</dt>
|
| <dd>
|
|
|
| </dd>
|
| <dt class="bold ">target</dt>
|
| <dd>The remotely accessible integer data object to be updated on the PE.
|
| </dd>
|
| <dt class="bold ">pe</dt>
|
| <dd>An integer indicating the PE number on which target is to be
|
| updated.
|
| </dd>
|
| </dl>

|
| <h4>Description</h4>
|
|
|
| <div class="ledi">
|
| <p>The shmem_longlong_finc routine performs an atomic fetch-and-increment operation. It increments the
|
| data objet pointed by target on PE specified by pe and returns the previous contents
|
| of target as an atomic operation. </p>
|
| <p>The shmem_longlong_finc operates on long data object.</p>
|
| <p>The atomic accessing of the shared variable is guaranteed only when that variable is updated solely using IBM openshmem functions.</p>
|
|
|
| <h4>IBM NOTES</h4>
|
| <div class="ledi">
|
| <dl>
|
| <p>To utilize the hardware atomic operations support of the PERCS system, the variables of these operations should be aligned with their natural byte alignments. For example, an int variable should be 4-byte aligned; a long long variable should be 8-byte aligned. If the participating variables are not aligned, the operation is done in software with sub-optimal performance</p>
