It has to be initialized with starpu_conf_init(). When the default value is used, StarPU automatically selects the number of processing units and takes the default scheduling policy. The environment variables overwrite the equivalent parameters. \var int starpu_conf::magic \private Will be initialized by starpu_conf_init(). Should not be set by hand. \var const char*starpu_conf::sched_policy_name Name of the scheduling policy. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_SCHED. (default = NULL). \var struct starpu_sched_policy *starpu_conf::sched_policy Definition of the scheduling policy. This field is ignored if starpu_conf::sched_policy_name is set. (default = NULL) \var void (*starpu_conf::sched_policy_init)(unsigned) todo \var int starpu_conf::ncpus Number of CPU cores that StarPU can use. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_NCPU . (default = -1) \var int starpu_conf::ncuda Number of CUDA devices that StarPU can use. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_NCUDA. (default = -1) \var int starpu_conf::nopencl Number of OpenCL devices that StarPU can use. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_NOPENCL. (default = -1) \var int starpu_conf::nmic Number of MIC devices that StarPU can use. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_NMIC. (default = -1) \var int starpu_conf::nscc Number of SCC devices that StarPU can use. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_NSCC. (default = -1) \var int starpu_conf::nmpi_ms Number of MPI Master Slave devices that StarPU can use. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_NMPI_MS. (default = -1) \var unsigned starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_bindid If this flag is set, the starpu_conf::workers_bindid array indicates where the different workers are bound, otherwise StarPU automatically selects where to bind the different workers. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_WORKERS_CPUID. (default = 0) \var unsigned starpu_conf::workers_bindid[STARPU_NMAXWORKERS] If the starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_bindid flag is set, this array indicates where to bind the different workers. The i-th entry of the starpu_conf::workers_bindid indicates the logical identifier of the processor which should execute the i-th worker. Note that the logical ordering of the CPUs is either determined by the OS, or provided by the hwloc library in case it is available. \var unsigned starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_cuda_gpuid If this flag is set, the CUDA workers will be attached to the CUDA devices specified in the starpu_conf::workers_cuda_gpuid array. Otherwise, StarPU affects the CUDA devices in a round-robin fashion. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_WORKERS_CUDAID. (default = 0) \var unsigned starpu_conf::workers_cuda_gpuid[STARPU_NMAXWORKERS] If the starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_cuda_gpuid flag is set, this array contains the logical identifiers of the CUDA devices (as used by \c cudaGetDevice()). \var unsigned starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_opencl_gpuid If this flag is set, the OpenCL workers will be attached to the OpenCL devices specified in the starpu_conf::workers_opencl_gpuid array. Otherwise, StarPU affects the OpenCL devices in a round-robin fashion. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_WORKERS_OPENCLID. (default = 0) \var unsigned starpu_conf::workers_opencl_gpuid[STARPU_NMAXWORKERS] If the starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_opencl_gpuid flag is set, this array contains the logical identifiers of the OpenCL devices to be used. \var unsigned starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_mic_deviceid If this flag is set, the MIC workers will be attached to the MIC devices specified in the array starpu_conf::workers_mic_deviceid. Otherwise, StarPU affects the MIC devices in a round-robin fashion. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_WORKERS_MICID. (default = 0) \var unsigned starpu_conf::workers_mic_deviceid[STARPU_NMAXWORKERS] If the flag starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_mic_deviceid is set, the array contains the logical identifiers of the MIC devices to be used. \var unsigned starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_scc_deviceid If this flag is set, the SCC workers will be attached to the SCC devices specified in the array starpu_conf::workers_scc_deviceid. (default = 0) \var unsigned starpu_conf::workers_scc_deviceid[STARPU_NMAXWORKERS] If the flag starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_scc_deviceid is set, the array contains the logical identifiers of the SCC devices to be used. Otherwise, StarPU affects the SCC devices in a round-robin fashion. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_WORKERS_SCCID. \var unsigned starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_mpi_ms_deviceid If this flag is set, the MPI Master Slave workers will be attached to the MPI Master Slave devices specified in the array starpu_conf::workers_mpi_ms_deviceid. Otherwise, StarPU affects the MPI Master Slave devices in a round-robin fashion. (default = 0) \var unsigned starpu_conf::workers_mpi_ms_deviceid[STARPU_NMAXWORKERS] If the flag starpu_conf::use_explicit_workers_mpi_ms_deviceid is set, the array contains the logical identifiers of the MPI Master Slave devices to be used. \var int starpu_conf::bus_calibrate If this flag is set, StarPU will recalibrate the bus. If this value is equal to -1, the default value is used. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_BUS_CALIBRATE. (default = 0) \var int starpu_conf::calibrate If this flag is set, StarPU will calibrate the performance models when executing tasks. If this value is equal to -1, the default value is used. If the value is equal to 1, it will force continuing calibration. If the value is equal to 2, the existing performance models will be overwritten. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_CALIBRATE. (default = 0) \var int starpu_conf::single_combined_worker By default, StarPU executes parallel tasks concurrently. Some parallel libraries (e.g. most OpenMP implementations) however do not support concurrent calls to parallel code. In such case, setting this flag makes StarPU only start one parallel task at a time (but other CPU and GPU tasks are not affected and can be run concurrently). The parallel task scheduler will however still try varying combined worker sizes to look for the most efficient ones. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_SINGLE_COMBINED_WORKER. (default = 0) \var char *starpu_conf::mic_sink_program_path Path to the kernel to execute on the MIC device, compiled for MIC architecture. When set to NULL, StarPU automatically looks next to the host program location. (default = NULL) \var int starpu_conf::disable_asynchronous_copy This flag should be set to 1 to disable asynchronous copies between CPUs and all accelerators. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_DISABLE_ASYNCHRONOUS_COPY. The AMD implementation of OpenCL is known to fail when copying data asynchronously. When using this implementation, it is therefore necessary to disable asynchronous data transfers. This can also be specified at compilation time by giving to the configure script the option \ref disable-asynchronous-copy "--disable-asynchronous-copy". (default = 0) \var int starpu_conf::disable_asynchronous_cuda_copy This flag should be set to 1 to disable asynchronous copies between CPUs and CUDA accelerators. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_DISABLE_ASYNCHRONOUS_CUDA_COPY. This can also be specified at compilation time by giving to the configure script the option \ref disable-asynchronous-cuda-copy "--disable-asynchronous-cuda-copy". (default = 0) \var int starpu_conf::disable_asynchronous_opencl_copy This flag should be set to 1 to disable asynchronous copies between CPUs and OpenCL accelerators. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_DISABLE_ASYNCHRONOUS_OPENCL_COPY. The AMD implementation of OpenCL is known to fail when copying data asynchronously. When using this implementation, it is therefore necessary to disable asynchronous data transfers. This can also be specified at compilation time by giving to the configure script the option \ref disable-asynchronous-opencl-copy "--disable-asynchronous-opencl-copy". (default = 0) \var int starpu_conf::disable_asynchronous_mic_copy This flag should be set to 1 to disable asynchronous copies between CPUs and MIC accelerators. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_DISABLE_ASYNCHRONOUS_MIC_COPY. This can also be specified at compilation time by giving to the configure script the option \ref disable-asynchronous-mic-copy "--disable-asynchronous-mic-copy". (default = 0). \var int starpu_conf::disable_asynchronous_mpi_ms_copy This flag should be set to 1 to disable asynchronous copies between CPUs and MPI Master Slave devices. This can also be specified with the environment variable \ref STARPU_DISABLE_ASYNCHRONOUS_MPI_MS_COPY. This can also be specified at compilation time by giving to the configure script the option \ref disable-asynchronous-mpi-master-slave-copy "--disable-asynchronous-mpi-master-slave-copy". (default = 0). \var unsigned *starpu_conf::cuda_opengl_interoperability Enable CUDA/OpenGL interoperation on these CUDA devices. This can be set to an array of CUDA device identifiers for which \c cudaGLSetGLDevice() should be called instead of \c cudaSetDevice(). Its size is specified by the starpu_conf::n_cuda_opengl_interoperability field below (default = NULL) \var unsigned starpu_conf::n_cuda_opengl_interoperability todo \var struct starpu_driver *starpu_conf::not_launched_drivers Array of drivers that should not be launched by StarPU. The application will run in one of its own threads. (default = NULL) \var unsigned starpu_conf::n_not_launched_drivers The number of StarPU drivers that should not be launched by StarPU. (default = 0) \var starpu_conf::trace_buffer_size Specify the buffer size used for FxT tracing. Starting from FxT version 0.2.12, the buffer will automatically be flushed when it fills in, but it may still be interesting to specify a bigger value to avoid any flushing (which would disturb the trace). \var starpu_conf::global_sched_ctx_min_priority todo \var starpu_conf::global_sched_ctx_max_priority todo \fn int starpu_init(struct starpu_conf *conf) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination This is StarPU initialization method, which must be called prior to any other StarPU call. It is possible to specify StarPU’s configuration (e.g. scheduling policy, number of cores, ...) by passing a non-NULL \p conf. Default configuration is used if \p conf is NULL. Upon successful completion, this function returns 0. Otherwise, -ENODEV indicates that no worker was available (and thus StarPU was not initialized). \fn int starpu_initialize(struct starpu_conf *user_conf, int *argc, char ***argv) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination This is the same as starpu_init(), but also takes the \p argc and \p argv as defined by the application. This is needed for SCC execution to initialize the communication library. Do not call starpu_init() and starpu_initialize() in the same program. \fn int starpu_conf_init(struct starpu_conf *conf) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Initialize the \p conf structure with the default values. In case some configuration parameters are already specified through environment variables, starpu_conf_init() initializes the fields of \p conf according to the environment variables. For instance if \ref STARPU_CALIBRATE is set, its value is put in the field starpu_conf::calibrate of \p conf. Upon successful completion, this function returns 0. Otherwise, -EINVAL indicates that the argument was NULL. \fn int starpu_is_initialized(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Return 1 if StarPU is already initialized. \fn void starpu_shutdown(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination This is StarPU termination method. It must be called at the end of the application: statistics and other post-mortem debugging information are not guaranteed to be available until this method has been called. \fn void starpu_pause(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Suspend the processing of new tasks by workers. It can be used in a program where StarPU is used during only a part of the execution. Without this call, the workers continue to poll for new tasks in a tight loop, wasting CPU time. The symmetric call to starpu_resume() should be used to unfreeze the workers. \fn void starpu_resume(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination This is the symmetrical call to starpu_pause(), used to resume the workers polling for new tasks. \fn int starpu_asynchronous_copy_disabled(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Return 1 if asynchronous data transfers between CPU and accelerators are disabled. \fn int starpu_asynchronous_cuda_copy_disabled(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Return 1 if asynchronous data transfers between CPU and CUDA accelerators are disabled. \fn int starpu_asynchronous_opencl_copy_disabled(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Return 1 if asynchronous data transfers between CPU and OpenCL accelerators are disabled. \fn int starpu_asynchronous_mic_copy_disabled(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Return 1 if asynchronous data transfers between CPU and MIC devices are disabled. \fn int starpu_asynchronous_mpi_ms_copy_disabled(void) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Return 1 if asynchronous data transfers between CPU and MPI Slave devices are disabled. \fn void starpu_topology_print(FILE *f) \ingroup API_Initialization_and_Termination Print a description of the topology on \p f. */
