Any use of parallel functionality requires additional compiler
|
||
and runtime support, in particular support for OpenMP. Adding this support is
|
||
not difficult: just compile your application with the compiler
|
||
flag <code class="literal">-fopenmp</code>. This will link
|
||
in <code class="code">libgomp</code>, the
|
||
<a class="link" href="http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/libgomp/" target="_top">GNU Offloading and
|
||
Multi Processing Runtime Library</a>,
|
||
whose presence is mandatory.
|
||
</p><p>
|
||
In addition, hardware that supports atomic operations and a compiler
|
||
capable of producing atomic operations is mandatory: GCC defaults to no
|
||
support for atomic operations on some common hardware
|
||
architectures. Activating atomic operations may require explicit
|
||
compiler flags on some targets (like sparc and x86), such
|
||
as <code class="literal">-march=i686</code>,
|
||
<code class="literal">-march=native</code> or <code class="literal">-mcpu=v9</code>. See
|
||
the GCC manual for more information.

|
||
To use the libstdc++ parallel mode, compile your application with
|
||
the prerequisite flags as detailed above, and in addition
|
||
add <code class="constant">-D_GLIBCXX_PARALLEL</code>. This will convert all
|
||
use of the standard (sequential) algorithms to the appropriate parallel
|
||
equivalents. Please note that this doesn't necessarily mean that
|
||
everything will end up being executed in a parallel manner, but
|
||
rather that the heuristics and settings coded into the parallel
|
||
versions will be used to determine if all, some, or no algorithms
|
||
will be executed using parallel variants.
|
||
</p><p>Note that the <code class="constant">_GLIBCXX_PARALLEL</code> define may change the
|
||
sizes and behavior of standard class templates such as
|
||
<code class="function">std::search</code>, and therefore one can only link code
|
||
compiled with parallel mode and code compiled without parallel mode
|
||
if no instantiation of a container is passed between the two
|
||
translation units. Parallel mode functionality has distinct linkage,
|
||
and cannot be confused with normal mode symbols.
|
||
</p></div><div class="section"><div class="titlepage"><div><div><h3 class="title"><a id="parallel_mode.using.specific"></a>Using Specific Parallel Components</h3></div></div></div><p>When it is not feasible to recompile your entire application, or
|
||
only specific algorithms need to be parallel-aware, individual
|
||
parallel algorithms can be made available explicitly. These
|
||
parallel algorithms are functionally equivalent to the standard
|
||
drop-in algorithms used in parallel mode, but they are available in
|
||
a separate namespace as GNU extensions and may be used in programs
|
||
compiled with either release mode or with parallel mode.
|
||
</p><p>An example of using a parallel version
|
||
of <code class="function">std::sort</code>, but no other parallel algorithms, is:
|
||
</p><pre class="programlisting">
|
||
#include <vector>
|
||
#include <parallel/algorithm>
|
||
|
||
int main()
|
||
{
|
||
std::vector<int> v(100);
|
||
|
||
// ...
|
||
|
||
// Explicitly force a call to parallel sort.
|
||
__gnu_parallel::sort(v.begin(), v.end());
|
||
return 0;
|
||
}
|
||
</pre><p>
|
||
Then compile this code with the prerequisite compiler flags
|
||
(<code class="literal">-fopenmp</code> and any necessary architecture-specific
|
||
flags for atomic operations.)
|
||
</p><p> The following table provides the names and headers of all the
|
||
parallel algorithms that can be used in a similar manner:
