81 <p>All of the FFTW threads code is located in the <code>threads</code>
|
Chris@42
|
82 subdirectory of the FFTW package. On Unix systems, the FFTW threads
|
Chris@42
|
83 libraries and header files can be automatically configured, compiled,
|
Chris@42
|
84 and installed along with the uniprocessor FFTW libraries simply by
|
Chris@42
|
85 including <code>--enable-threads</code> in the flags to the <code>configure</code>
|
Chris@42
|
86 script (see <a href="Installation-on-Unix.html#Installation-on-Unix">Installation on Unix</a>), or <code>--enable-openmp</code> to use
|
Chris@42
|
87 <a href="http://www.openmp.org">OpenMP</a> threads.

|
Chris@42
|
93 <p>The threads routines require your operating system to have some sort
|
Chris@42
|
94 of shared-memory threads support. Specifically, the FFTW threads
|
Chris@42
|
95 package works with POSIX threads (available on most Unix variants,
|
Chris@42
|
96 from GNU/Linux to MacOS X) and Win32 threads. OpenMP threads, which
|
Chris@42
|
97 are supported in many common compilers (e.g. gcc) are also supported,
|
Chris@42
|
98 and may give better performance on some systems. (OpenMP threads are
|
Chris@42
|
99 also useful if you are employing OpenMP in your own code, in order to
|
Chris@42
|
100 minimize conflicts between threading models.) If you have a
|
Chris@42
|
101 shared-memory machine that uses a different threads API, it should be
|
Chris@42
|
102 a simple matter of programming to include support for it; see the file
|
Chris@42
|
103 <code>threads/threads.c</code> for more detail.
|
Chris@42
|
104 </p>
|
Chris@42
|
105 <p>You can compile FFTW with <em>both</em> <code>--enable-threads</code> and
|
Chris@42
|
106 <code>--enable-openmp</code> at the same time, since they install libraries
|
Chris@42
|
107 with different names (‘<samp>fftw3_threads</samp>’ and ‘<samp>fftw3_omp</samp>’, as
|
Chris@42
|
108 described below). However, your programs may only link to <em>one</em>
|
Chris@42
|
109 of these two libraries at a time.
|
Chris@42
|
110 </p>
|
Chris@42
|
111 <p>Ideally, of course, you should also have multiple processors in order to
|
Chris@42
|
112 get any benefit from the threaded transforms.
