Atomic operators, SSE/AVX, and OpenMP

僤鯓⒐⒋嵵緔 提交于 2019-12-04 17:29:22
I'm wondering if SSE/AVX operations such as addition and multiplication can be an atomic operation? The reason I ask this is that in OpenMP the atomic construct only works on a limited set of operators. It does not work on for example SSE/AVX additions. Let's assume I had a datatype float4 that corresponds to a SSE register and that the addition operator is defined for float4 to do an SSE addition. In OpenMP I could do a reduction over an array with the following code: float4 sum4 = 0.0f; //sets all four values to zero #pragma omp parallel { float4 sum_private = 0.0f; #pragma omp for nowait

How to get clang with OpenMP working on MSVC 2015

I try to get clang 5.0.0 working for Visual Studio 2015, because I need OpenMP 3.0 features. I installed the clang compiler (not the vs2015 version which does not have any openmp support) and use cmake: cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.10) project(myproject) find_package(OpenMP) if (OPENMP_FOUND) set (CMAKE_C_FLAGS "${CMAKE_C_FLAGS} ${OpenMP_C_FLAGS}") set (CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} ${OpenMP_CXX_FLAGS}") endif() include_directories("include") add_library(libFoo STATIC Foo.cpp) install(TARGETS Foo libFoo LIBRARY DESTINATION lib ARCHIVE DESTINATION lib) When I now try to configure a

Why doesn't this code scale linearly?

问题 I wrote this SOR solver code. Don't bother too much what this algorithm does, it is not the concern here. But just for the sake of completeness: it may solve a linear system of equations, depending on how well conditioned the system is. I run it with an ill conditioned 2097152 rows sparce matrix (that never converges), with at most 7 non-zero columns per row. Translating: the outer do-while loop will perform 10000 iterations (the value I pass as max_iters ), the middle for will perform

c++ OpenMP critical: “one-way” locking?

Consider the following serial function. When I parallelize my code, every thread will call this function from within the parallel region (not shown). I am trying to make this threadsafe and efficient (fast). float get_stored_value__or__calculate_if_does_not_yet_exist( int A ) { static std::map<int, float> my_map; std::map::iterator it_find = my_map.find(A); //many threads do this often. bool found_A = it_find != my_map.end(); if (found_A) { return it_find->second; } else { float result_for_A = calculate_value(A); //should only be done once, really. my_map[A] = result_for_A; return result_for_A

Cython: make prange parallelization thread-safe

问题 Cython starter here. I am trying to speed up a calculation of a certain pairwise statistic (in several bins) by using multiple threads. In particular, I am using prange from cython.parallel, which internally uses openMP. The following minimal example illustrates the problem (compilation via Jupyter notebook Cython magic). Notebook setup: %load_ext Cython import numpy as np Cython code: %%cython --compile-args=-fopenmp --link-args=-fopenmp -a from cython cimport boundscheck import numpy as np

Elegant exceptionhandling in OpenMP

人盡茶涼 提交于 2019-12-04 11:15:53
问题 OpenMP forbids code which leaves the openmp block via exception. Therefore I'm looking for a nice way of getting the exceptions from an openmp block with the purpose of rethrowing it in the main thread and handling at a later point. So far the best I've been able to come up with is the following: class ThreadException { std::exception_ptr Ptr; std::mutex Lock; public: ThreadException(): Ptr(nullptr) {} ~ThreadException(){ this->Rethrow(); } void Rethrow(){ if(this->Ptr) std::rethrow_exception

How to get abstract syntax tree of a `c` program in `GCC`

人走茶凉 提交于 2019-12-04 11:07:03
How can I get the abstract syntax tree of a c program in gcc? I'm trying to automatically insert OpenMP pragmas to the input c program. I need to analyze nested for loops for finding dependencies so that I can insert appropriate OpenMP pragmas. So basically what I want to do is traverse and analyze the abstract syntax tree of the input c program. How do I achieve this? You need full dataflow to find 'dependencies'. Then you will need to actually insert the OpenMP calls. What you want is a program transformation system. GCC probably has the dependency information, but it is famously difficult

How to tell if OpenMP is working?

问题 I am trying to run LIBSVM in parallel mode, however my question is in OpenMP in general. According to LIBSVM FAQ, I have modified the code with #pragma calls to use OpenMP. I also modified the Makefile (for un*x) by adding a -fopenmp argument so it becomes: CFLAGS = -Wall -Wconversion -O3 -fPIC -fopenmp The code compiles well. I check (since it's not my PC) whether OpenMP is installed by : /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep gomp and see that it is -probably- installed: libgomp.so.1 (libc6,x86-64) =>

OpenMP in Visual Studio 2005 Standard

一个人想着一个人 提交于 2019-12-04 10:50:19
I have used OpenMP with gcc for writing parallel code. I am now using Visual C++ 2005 and am trying to figure out how to use OpenMP. There is a compiler option in the Properties->C/C++/Language menu but then it complains the library is missing. Is there a 3rd party implementation for OpenMP or am i just configuring Visual C++ incorrectly? After some research I found out that the OpenMP libs and dlls are not included with Visual C++ 2005 or Visual C++ Express Edition 2008. But with a few workarounds you can get it working. First you need to download the lib files from microsoft which can be
