Chris@42:Once an MPI plan is created, you can execute and destroy it using
Chris@42: fftw_execute, fftw_destroy_plan, and the other functions
Chris@42: in the serial interface that operate on generic plans (see Using Plans).
Chris@42:
The fftw_execute and fftw_destroy_plan functions, applied to
Chris@42: MPI plans, are collective calls: they must be called for all processes
Chris@42: in the communicator that was used to create the plan.
Chris@42:
You must not use the serial new-array plan-execution functions
Chris@42: fftw_execute_dft and so on (see New-array Execute Functions) with MPI plans. Such functions are specialized to the
Chris@42: problem type, and there are specific new-array execute functions for MPI plans:
Chris@42:
void fftw_mpi_execute_dft(fftw_plan p, fftw_complex *in, fftw_complex *out); Chris@42: void fftw_mpi_execute_dft_r2c(fftw_plan p, double *in, fftw_complex *out); Chris@42: void fftw_mpi_execute_dft_c2r(fftw_plan p, fftw_complex *in, double *out); Chris@42: void fftw_mpi_execute_r2r(fftw_plan p, double *in, double *out); Chris@42:
These functions have the same restrictions as those of the serial
Chris@42: new-array execute functions. They are always safe to apply to
Chris@42: the same in and out arrays that were used to
Chris@42: create the plan. They can only be applied to new arrarys if those
Chris@42: arrays have the same types, dimensions, in-placeness, and alignment as
Chris@42: the original arrays, where the best way to ensure the same alignment
Chris@42: is to use FFTW’s fftw_malloc and related allocation functions
Chris@42: for all arrays (see Memory Allocation). Note that distributed
Chris@42: transposes (see FFTW MPI Transposes) use
Chris@42: fftw_mpi_execute_r2r, since they count as rank-zero r2r plans
Chris@42: from FFTW’s perspective.
