Public Methods

 ProcMemoryGrp ()
 ProcMemoryGrp (const Ref< KeyVal > &)
 ~ProcMemoryGrp ()
void set_localsize (int)
 Set the size of locally held memory. More...

void * localdata ()
 Returns a pointer to the local data.

void * obtain_readwrite (distsize_t offset, int size)
 Only one thread can have an unreleased obtain_readwrite at a time. More...

void * obtain_readonly (distsize_t offset, int size)
 This gives read access to the memory location. No locking is done.

void * obtain_writeonly (distsize_t offset, int size)
 This gives write access to the memory location. No locking is done.

void release_readonly (void *data, distsize_t offset, int size)
 This is called when read access is no longer needed.

void release_writeonly (void *data, distsize_t offset, int size)
 This is called when write access is no longer needed.

void release_readwrite (void *data, distsize_t offset, int size)
 This is called when read/write access is no longer needed. More...

void sync ()
 Synchronizes all the nodes. More...


Detailed Description

The ProcMessageGrp concrete class provides an implementation of MemoryGrp for a single processor.


Member Function Documentation

void* ProcMemoryGrp::obtain_readwrite distsize_t    offset,
int    size
[virtual]
 

Only one thread can have an unreleased obtain_readwrite at a time.

The actual memory region locked can be larger than that requested. If the memory region is already locked this will block. For this reason, data should be held as read/write for as short a time as possible.

Implements MemoryGrp.

void ProcMemoryGrp::release_readwrite void *    data,
distsize_t    offset,
int    size
[virtual]
 

This is called when read/write access is no longer needed.

The memory will be unlocked.

Implements MemoryGrp.

void ProcMemoryGrp::set_localsize int    [virtual]
 

Set the size of locally held memory.

When memory is accessed using a global offset counting starts at node 0 and proceeds up to node n() - 1.

Implements MemoryGrp.

void ProcMemoryGrp::sync   [virtual]
 

Synchronizes all the nodes.

Consider using this when the way you you access memory changes.

Implements MemoryGrp.
