Parallel reduction primitive for device level.

reduce function performs a device-wide reduction operation using binary reduce_op operator.

Overview

  • Does not support non-commutative reduction operators. Reduction operator should also be associative. When used with non-associative functions the results may be non-deterministic and/or vary in precision.

  • Returns the required size of temporary_storage in storage_size if temporary_storage in a null pointer.

  • Ranges specified by input must have at least size elements, while output only needs one element.

Example

In this example a device-level min-reduction operation is performed on an array of integer values (shorts are reduced into ints) using custom operator.

#include <rocprim/rocprim.hpp>

// custom reduce function
auto min_op =
    [] __device__ (int a, int b) -> int
    {
        return a < b ? a : b;
    };

// Prepare input and output (declare pointers, allocate device memory etc.)
size_t input_size;    // e.g., 8
short * input;        // e.g., [4, 7, 6, 2, 5, 1, 3, 8]
int * output;         // empty array of 1 element
int start_value;      // e.g., 9

size_t temporary_storage_size_bytes;
void * temporary_storage_ptr = nullptr;
// Get required size of the temporary storage
rocprim::reduce(
    temporary_storage_ptr, temporary_storage_size_bytes,
    input, output, start_value, input_size, min_op
);

// allocate temporary storage
hipMalloc(&temporary_storage_ptr, temporary_storage_size_bytes);

// perform reduce
rocprim::reduce(
    temporary_storage_ptr, temporary_storage_size_bytes,
    input, output, start_value, input_size, min_op
);
// output: [1]

Template Parameters:

  • Config – - [optional] configuration of the primitive. It can be reduce_config or a custom class with the same members.

  • InputIterator – - random-access iterator type of the input range. Must meet the requirements of a C++ InputIterator concept. It can be a simple pointer type.

  • InitValueType – - type of the initial value.

  • BinaryFunction – - type of binary function used for reduction. Default type is rocprim::plus<T>, where T is a value_type of InputIterator.

Parameters:

  • temporary_storage – [in] - pointer to a device-accessible temporary storage. When a null pointer is passed, the required allocation size (in bytes) is written to storage_size and function returns without performing the reduction operation.

  • storage_size – [inout] - reference to a size (in bytes) of temporary_storage.

  • input – [in] - iterator to the first element in the range to reduce.

  • output – [out] - iterator to the first element in the output range. It can be same as input.

  • initial_value – [in] - initial value to start the reduction.

  • size – [in] - number of element in the input range.

  • reduce_op – [in] - binary operation function object that will be used for reduction. The signature of the function should be equivalent to the following: T f(const T &a, const T &b);. The signature does not need to have const &, but function object must not modify the objects passed to it. The default value is BinaryFunction().

  • stream – [in] - [optional] HIP stream object. The default is 0 (default stream).

  • debug_synchronous – [in] - [optional] If true, synchronization after every kernel launch is forced in order to check for errors. The default value is false.

Returns:

hipSuccess (0) after successful reduction; otherwise a HIP runtime error of type hipError_t.
