figure=mycoll-fig7.ps,width=3.50inThe reverse of Example Examples using MPI_GATHER, MPI_GATHERV . Scatter sets of 100 ints from the root to each process in the group. See figure 8 .
MPI_Comm comm; int gsize,*sendbuf; int root, rbuf[100]; ... MPI_Comm_size( comm, &gsize); sendbuf = (int *)malloc(gsize*100*sizeof(int)); ... MPI_Scatter( sendbuf, 100, MPI_INT, rbuf, 100, MPI_INT, root, comm);
Figure 8: The root process scatters sets of 100 ints to each process in the group.
figure=mycoll-fig8.ps,width=3.50inThe reverse of Example Examples using MPI_GATHER, MPI_GATHERV . The root process scatters sets of 100 ints to the other processes, but the sets of 100 are stride ints apart in the sending buffer. Requires use of MPI_SCATTERV. Assume . See figure 9 .
MPI_Comm comm; int gsize,*sendbuf; int root, rbuf[100], i, *displs, *scounts;...
MPI_Comm_size( comm, &gsize); sendbuf = (int *)malloc(gsize*stride*sizeof(int)); ... displs = (int *)malloc(gsize*sizeof(int)); scounts = (int *)malloc(gsize*sizeof(int)); for (i=0; i<gsize; ++i) { displs[i] = i*stride; scounts[i] = 100; } MPI_Scatterv( sendbuf, scounts, displs, MPI_INT, rbuf, 100, MPI_INT, root, comm);
Figure 9: The root process scatters sets of 100 ints, moving by stride ints from send to send in the scatter.
figure=mycoll-fig9.ps,width=4.00inThe reverse of Example Examples using MPI_GATHER, MPI_GATHERV . We have a varying stride between blocks at sending (root) side, at the receiving side we receive into the ith column of a 100 150 C array. See figure 10 .
MPI_Comm comm; int gsize,recvarray[100][150],*rptr; int root, *sendbuf, myrank, bufsize, *stride; MPI_Datatype rtype; int i, *displs, *scounts, offset; ... MPI_Comm_size( comm, &gsize); MPI_Comm_rank( comm, &myrank );stride = (int *)malloc(gsize*sizeof(int)); ... /* stride[i] for i = 0 to gsize-1 is set somehow * sendbuf comes from elsewhere */ ... displs = (int *)malloc(gsize*sizeof(int)); scounts = (int *)malloc(gsize*sizeof(int)); offset = 0; for (i=0; i<gsize; ++i) { displs[i] = offset; offset += stride[i]; scounts[i] = 100 - i; } /* Create datatype for the column we are receiving */ MPI_Type_vector( 100-myrank, 1, 150, MPI_INT, &rtype); MPI_Type_commit( &rtype ); rptr = &recvarray[0][myrank]; MPI_Scatterv( sendbuf, scounts, displs, MPI_INT, rptr, 1, rtype, root, comm);
Figure 10: The root scatters blocks of 100-i ints into column i of a 100$ x $150 C array. At the sending side, the blocks are stride[i] ints apart.
