Chris@82 78 <h4 class="subsection">4.5.2 Guru vector and transform sizes</h4>
Chris@82 79
Chris@82 80 <p>The guru interface introduces one basic new data structure,
Chris@82 81 <code>fftw_iodim</code>, that is used to specify sizes and strides for
Chris@82 82 multi-dimensional transforms and vectors:
Chris@82 83 </p>
Chris@82 84 <div class="example">
Chris@82 85 <pre class="example">typedef struct {
Chris@82 86 int n;
Chris@82 87 int is;
Chris@82 88 int os;
Chris@82 89 } fftw_iodim;
Chris@82 90 </pre></div>
Chris@82 91 <a name="index-fftw_005fiodim"></a>
Chris@82 92
Chris@82 93 <p>Here, <code>n</code> is the size of the dimension, and <code>is</code> and <code>os</code>
Chris@82 94 are the strides of that dimension for the input and output arrays. (The
Chris@82 95 stride is the separation of consecutive elements along this dimension.)
Chris@82 96 </p>
Chris@82 97 <p>The meaning of the stride parameter depends on the type of the array
Chris@82 98 that the stride refers to. <em>If the array is interleaved complex,
Chris@82 99 strides are expressed in units of complex numbers
Chris@82 100 (<code>fftw_complex</code>). If the array is split complex or real, strides
Chris@82 101 are expressed in units of real numbers (<code>double</code>).</em> This
Chris@82 102 convention is consistent with the usual pointer arithmetic in the C
Chris@82 103 language. An interleaved array is denoted by a pointer <code>p</code> to
Chris@82 104 <code>fftw_complex</code>, so that <code>p+1</code> points to the next complex
Chris@82 105 number. Split arrays are denoted by pointers to <code>double</code>, in
Chris@82 106 which case pointer arithmetic operates in units of
Chris@82 107 <code>sizeof(double)</code>.
Chris@82 108 <a name="index-stride-2"></a>
Chris@82 109 </p>
Chris@82 110
Chris@82 111 <p>The guru planner interfaces all take a (<code>rank</code>, <code>dims[rank]</code>)
Chris@82 112 pair describing the transform size, and a (<code>howmany_rank</code>,
Chris@82 113 <code>howmany_dims[howmany_rank]</code>) pair describing the &ldquo;vector&rdquo; size (a
Chris@82 114 multi-dimensional loop of transforms to perform), where <code>dims</code> and
Chris@82 115 <code>howmany_dims</code> are arrays of <code>fftw_iodim</code>. Each <code>n</code> field must
Chris@82 116 be positive for <code>dims</code> and nonnegative for <code>howmany_dims</code>, while both
Chris@82 117 <code>rank</code> and <code>howmany_rank</code> must be nonnegative.
Chris@82 118 </p>
Chris@82 119 <p>For example, the <code>howmany</code> parameter in the advanced complex-DFT
Chris@82 120 interface corresponds to <code>howmany_rank</code> = 1,
Chris@82 121 <code>howmany_dims[0].n</code> = <code>howmany</code>, <code>howmany_dims[0].is</code> =
Chris@82 122 <code>idist</code>, and <code>howmany_dims[0].os</code> = <code>odist</code>.
Chris@82 123 <a name="index-howmany-loop"></a>
Chris@82 124 <a name="index-dist-1"></a>
Chris@82 125 (To compute a single transform, you can just use <code>howmany_rank</code> = 0.)
Chris@82 126 </p>
Chris@82 127
Chris@82 128 <p>A row-major multidimensional array with dimensions <code>n[rank]</code>
Chris@82 129 (see <a href="Row_002dmajor-Format.html#Row_002dmajor-Format">Row-major Format</a>) corresponds to <code>dims[i].n</code> =
Chris@82 130 <code>n[i]</code> and the recurrence <code>dims[i].is</code> = <code>n[i+1] *
Chris@82 131 dims[i+1].is</code> (similarly for <code>os</code>). The stride of the last
Chris@82 132 (<code>i=rank-1</code>) dimension is the overall stride of the array.
Chris@82 133 e.g. to be equivalent to the advanced complex-DFT interface, you would
Chris@82 134 have <code>dims[rank-1].is</code> = <code>istride</code> and
Chris@82 135 <code>dims[rank-1].os</code> = <code>ostride</code>.
Chris@82 136 <a name="index-row_002dmajor-3"></a>
Chris@82 137 </p>
Chris@82 138
Chris@82 139 <p>In general, we only guarantee FFTW to return a non-<code>NULL</code> plan if
Chris@82 140 the vector and transform dimensions correspond to a set of distinct
Chris@82 141 indices, and for in-place transforms the input/output strides should
Chris@82 142 be the same.
