Detailed Description

UCT context abstracts all the resources required for network communication. It is designed to enable either share or isolate resources for multiple programming models used by an application.

This section provides a detailed description of this concept and routines associated with it.

Function Documentation

ucs_status_t uct_worker_create	(	ucs_async_context_t *	async,
		ucs_thread_mode_t	thread_mode,
		uct_worker_h *	worker_p
	)

The worker represents a progress engine. Multiple progress engines can be created in an application, for example to be used by multiple threads. Transports can allocate separate communication resources for every worker, so that every worker can be progressed independently of others.

Parameters

[in]	async	Context for async event handlers. Must not be NULL.
[in]	thread_mode	Thread access mode to the worker and all interfaces and endpoints associated with it.
[out]	worker_p	Filled with a pointer to the worker object.

Examples:: uct_hello_world.c.

void uct_worker_destroy ( uct_worker_h worker )

Parameters

[in] worker Worker object to destroy.

Examples:: uct_hello_world.c.

void uct_worker_progress_register_safe	(	uct_worker_h	worker,
		ucs_callback_t	func,
		void *	arg,
		unsigned	flags,
		uct_worker_cb_id_t *	id_p
	)

If *id_p is equal to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL, this function will add a callback which will be invoked every time progress is made on the worker. *id_p will be updated with an id which refers to this callback and can be used in uct_worker_progress_unregister_safe to remove it from the progress path.

Parameters

[in]	worker	Handle to the worker whose progress should invoke the callback.
[in]	func	Pointer to the callback function.
[in]	arg	Argument for the callback function.
[in]	flags	Callback flags, see ucs_callbackq_flags.
[in,out]	id_p	Points to a location to store a callback identifier. If id_p is equal to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL, a callback will be added and id_p will be replaced with a callback identifier which can be subsequently used to remove the callback. Otherwise, no callback will be added and *id_p will be left unchanged.

Note: This function is thread safe.

void uct_worker_progress_unregister_safe	(	uct_worker_h	worker,
		uct_worker_cb_id_t *	id_p
	)

If *id_p is not equal to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL, remove a callback which was previously added by uct_worker_progress_register_safe. *id_p will be reset to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL.

Parameters

[in]	worker	Handle to the worker whose progress should invoke the callback.
[in,out]	id_p	Points to a callback identifier which indicates the callback to remove. If id_p is not equal to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL, the callback will be removed and id_p will be reset to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL. If id_p is equal to UCS_CALLBACKQ_ID_NULL, no operation will be performed and id_p will be left unchanged.

Note: This function is thread safe.

ucs_status_t uct_config_get	(	void *	config,
		const char *	name,
		char *	value,
		size_t	max
	)

Parameters

[in]	config	Configuration to get from.
[in]	name	Configuration variable name.
[out]	value	Pointer to get value. Should be allocated/freed by caller.
[in]	max	Available memory space at value pointer.

Returns: UCS_OK if found, otherwise UCS_ERR_INVALID_PARAM or UCS_ERR_NO_ELEM if error.

ucs_status_t uct_config_modify	(	void *	config,
		const char *	name,
		const char *	value
	)

Parameters

[in]	config	Configuration to modify.
[in]	name	Configuration variable name.
[in]	value	Value to set.

Returns: Error code.

unsigned uct_worker_progress ( uct_worker_h worker )

This routine explicitly progresses any outstanding communication operations and active message requests.

Note

In the current implementation, users MUST call this routine to receive the active message requests.

Parameters

[in] worker Handle to worker.

Returns: Non-zero if any communication was progressed, zero otherwise.

Examples:: uct_hello_world.c.
