108
To activate the OpenMP extensions for C/C++ and Fortran, the compile-time
109
flag @command{-fopenmp} must be specified. This enables the OpenMP directive
110
@code{#pragma omp} in C/C++ and @code{!$omp} directives in free form,
111
@code{c$omp}, @code{*$omp} and @code{!$omp} directives in fixed form,
112
@code{!$} conditional compilation sentinels in free form and @code{c$},
113
@code{*$} and @code{!$} sentinels in fixed form, for Fortran. The flag also
114
arranges for automatic linking of the OpenMP runtime library
115
(@ref{Runtime Library Routines}).
116
 
117
A complete description of all OpenMP directives accepted may be found in
118

@code{omp_test_nest_lock} does not block if the lock is not available.

@item @emph{Description}:
1241
Binds threads to specific CPUs. The variable should contain a space- or
1242
comma-separated list of CPUs. This list may contain different kind of
1243
entries: either single CPU numbers in any order, a range of CPUs (M-N)
1244
or a range with some stride (M-N:S). CPU numbers are zero based. For example,
1245
@code{GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY="0 3 1-2 4-15:2"} will bind the initial thread
1246
to CPU 0, the second to CPU 3, the third to CPU 1, the fourth to
1247
CPU 2, the fifth to CPU 4, the sixth through tenth to CPUs 6, 8, 10, 12,
1248
and 14 respectively and then start assigning back from the beginning of
1249
the list. @code{GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY=0} binds all threads to CPU 0.
1250
 
1251
There is no GNU OpenMP library routine to determine whether a CPU affinity
1252
specification is in effect. As a workaround, language-specific library
1253
functions, e.g., @code{getenv} in C or @code{GET_ENVIRONMENT_VARIABLE} in
1254
Fortran, may be used to query the setting of the @code{GOMP_CPU_AFFINITY}
1255
environment variable. A defined CPU affinity on startup cannot be changed
1256
or disabled during the runtime of the application.
1257
 
1258
If this environment variable is omitted, the host system will handle the
1259
assignment of threads to CPUs.

In _most_ cases we can map this directly to @code{__thread}.  Except
1392
that OMP allows constructors for C++ objects.  We can either
1393
refuse to support this (how often is it used?) or we can
1394
implement something akin to .ctors.
1395
 
1396
Even more ideally, this ctor feature is handled by extensions
1397
to the main pthreads library.  Failing that, we can have a set
1398
of entry points to register ctor functions to be called.

In association with a PARALLEL, or within the lexical extent
1406
of a PARALLEL block, the variable becomes a local variable in
1407
the parallel subfunction.
1408
 
1409
In association with FOR or SECTIONS blocks, create a new
1410
automatic variable within the current function.  This preserves
1411

Seems simple enough for PARALLEL blocks.  Create a private
1419
struct for communicating between parent and subfunction.
1420
In the parent, copy in values for scalar and "small" structs;
1421
copy in addresses for others TREE_ADDRESSABLE types.  In the
1422
subfunction, copy the value into the local variable.
1423
 
1424
Not clear at all what to do with bare FOR or SECTION blocks.
1425
The only thing I can figure is that we do something like
1426
 
1427
@smallexample
1428
#pragma omp for firstprivate(x) lastprivate(y)
1429
for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i)
1430
  body;
1431
@end smallexample
1432
 
1433
which becomes
1434
 
1435
@smallexample
1436
@{
1437
  int x = x, y;
1438
 
1439
  // for stuff
1440
 
1441
  if (i == n)
1442
    y = y;
1443
@}
1444
@end smallexample
1445
 
1446
where the "x=x" and "y=y" assignments actually have different
1447
uids for the two variables, i.e. not something you could write
1448
directly in C.  Presumably this only makes sense if the "outer"
1449
x and y are global variables.
1450
 
1451
COPYPRIVATE would work the same way, except the structure
1452
broadcast would have to happen via SINGLE machinery instead.

The private struct mentioned in the previous section should have
1460
a pointer to an array of the type of the variable, indexed by the
1461
thread's @var{team_id}.  The thread stores its final value into the
1462
array, and after the barrier the master thread iterates over the
1463
array to collect the values.

The @var{FN} argument is the subfunction to be run in parallel.

The @var{DATA} argument is a pointer to a structure used to

communicate data in and out of the subfunction, as discussed

above with respect to FIRSTPRIVATE et al.

present, or 0.

Note that while it looks like there is trickyness to propagating
1568
a non-constant STEP, there isn't really.  We're explicitly allowed
1569
to evaluate it as many times as we want, and any variables involved
1570
should automatically be handled as PRIVATE or SHARED like any other
1571
variables.  So the expression should remain evaluable in the
1572
subfunction.  We can also pull it into a local variable if we like,
1573
but since its supposed to remain unchanged, we can also not if we like.
1574
 
1575
If we have SCHEDULE(STATIC), and no ORDERED, then we ought to be
1576
able to get away with no work-sharing context at all, since we can
1577
simply perform the arithmetic directly in each thread to divide up
1578
the iterations.  Which would mean that we wouldn't need to call any
1579
of these routines.
1580
 
1581
There are separate routines for handling loops with an ORDERED
1582
clause.  Bookkeeping for that is non-trivial...
