Next: An improved replacement for MPI_Alltoall, Previous: Basic distributed-transpose interface, Up: FFTW MPI Transposes
The above routines are for a transpose of a matrix of numbers (of type
double
), using FFTW's default block sizes. More generally, one
can perform transposes of tuples of numbers, with
user-specified block sizes for the input and output:
fftw_plan fftw_mpi_plan_many_transpose (ptrdiff_t n0, ptrdiff_t n1, ptrdiff_t howmany, ptrdiff_t block0, ptrdiff_t block1, double *in, double *out, MPI_Comm comm, unsigned flags);
In this case, one is transposing an n0
by n1
matrix of
howmany
-tuples (e.g. howmany = 2
for complex numbers).
The input is distributed along the n0
dimension with block size
block0
, and the n1
by n0
output is distributed
along the n1
dimension with block size block1
. If
FFTW_MPI_DEFAULT_BLOCK
(0) is passed for a block size then FFTW
uses its default block size. To get the local size of the data on
each process, you should then call fftw_mpi_local_size_many_transposed
.
