Reduce#

template<class T, unsigned int WarpSize = device_warp_size(), bool UseAllReduce = false>
class warp_reduce# The warp_reduce class is a warp level parallel primitive which provides methods for performing reduction operations on items partitioned across threads in a hardware warp.
- Overview
WarpSize
must be equal to or less than the size of hardware warp (see rocprim::device_warp_size()). If it is less, reduce is performed separately within groups determined by WarpSize.
For example, if
WarpSize
is 4, hardware warp is 64, reduction will be performed in logical warps grouped like this:{ {0, 1, 2, 3}, {4, 5, 6, 7 }, ..., {60, 61, 62, 63} }
(thread is represented here by its id within hardware warp).Logical warp is a group of
WarpSize
consecutive threads from the same hardware warp.Supports non-commutative reduce operators. However, a reduce operator should be associative. When used with non-associative functions the results may be non-deterministic and/or vary in precision.
Number of threads executing warp_reduce’s function must be a multiple of
WarpSize
;All threads from a logical warp must be in the same hardware warp.
- Examples
In the examples reduce operation is performed on groups of 16 threads, each provides one
int
value, result is returned using the same variable as for input. Hardware warp size is 64. Block (tile) size is 64.__global__ void example_kernel(...) { // specialize warp_reduce for int and logical warp of 16 threads using warp_reduce_int = rocprim::warp_reduce<int, 16>; // allocate storage in shared memory __shared__ warp_reduce_int::storage_type temp[4]; int logical_warp_id = threadIdx.x/16; int value = ...; // execute reduce warp_reduce_int().reduce( value, // input value, // output temp[logical_warp_id] ); ... }
- Template Parameters:
T – - the input/output type.
WarpSize – - the size of logical warp size, which can be equal to or less than the size of hardware warp (see rocprim::device_warp_size()). Reduce operations are performed separately within groups determined by WarpSize.
UseAllReduce – - input parameter to determine whether to broadcast final reduction value to all threads (default is false).
Public Types
-
using storage_type = typename base_type::storage_type#
Struct used to allocate a temporary memory that is required for thread communication during operations provided by related parallel primitive.
Depending on the implemention the operations exposed by parallel primitive may require a temporary storage for thread communication. The storage should be allocated using keywords
. It can be aliased to an externally allocated memory, or be a part of a union type with other storage types to increase shared memory reusability.
