Function Documentation

◆ hipStreamWaitValue32()

hipError_t hipStreamWaitValue32 ( hipStream_t  stream,
void *  ptr,
uint32_t  value,
unsigned int  flags,
uint32_t  mask 
)

Enqueues a wait command to the stream.[BETA].

Parameters
[in]stream- Stream identifier
[in]ptr- Pointer to memory object allocated using 'hipMallocSignalMemory' flag
[in]value- Value to be used in compare operation
[in]flags- Defines the compare operation, supported values are hipStreamWaitValueGte hipStreamWaitValueEq, hipStreamWaitValueAnd and hipStreamWaitValueNor
[in]mask- Mask to be applied on value at memory before it is compared with value, default value is set to enable every bit
Returns
hipSuccess, hipErrorInvalidValue

Enqueues a wait command to the stream, all operations enqueued on this stream after this, will not execute until the defined wait condition is true.

hipStreamWaitValueGte: waits until *ptr&mask >= value hipStreamWaitValueEq : waits until *ptr&mask == value hipStreamWaitValueAnd: waits until ((*ptr&mask) & value) != 0 hipStreamWaitValueNor: waits until ~((*ptr&mask) | (value&mask)) != 0

Note
when using 'hipStreamWaitValueNor', mask is applied on both 'value' and '*ptr'.
Support for hipStreamWaitValue32 can be queried using 'hipDeviceGetAttribute()' and 'hipDeviceAttributeCanUseStreamWaitValue' flag.
Warning
This API is marked as Beta. While this feature is complete, it can change and might have outstanding issues.

◆ hipStreamWriteValue32()

hipError_t hipStreamWriteValue32 ( hipStream_t  stream,
void *  ptr,
uint32_t  value,
unsigned int  flags 
)

Enqueues a write command to the stream.[BETA].

Parameters
[in]stream- Stream identifier
[in]ptr- Pointer to a GPU accessible memory object
[in]value- Value to be written
[in]flags- reserved, ignored for now, will be used in future releases
Returns
hipSuccess, hipErrorInvalidValue

Enqueues a write command to the stream, write operation is performed after all earlier commands on this stream have completed the execution.

Warning
This API is marked as Beta. While this feature is complete, it can change and might have outstanding issues.
