NAME
shmem_fence - Provides a separate ordering on the sequence of puts issued by this PE to each destination
PE.
SYNOPSIS
C or C++:
#include <mpp/shmem.h>
void shmem_fence(void);
Fortran:
INCLUDE "mpp/shmem.fh"
CALL SHMEM_FENCE
DESCRIPTION
The shmem_fence() routine provides an ordering on the put operations issued by the calling PE prior to
the call to shmem_fence() relative to the put operations issued by the calling PE following the call to
shmem_fence(). It guarantees that all such prior put operations issued to a particular destination PE
are fully written to the symmetric memory of that destination PE, before any such following put
operations to that same destination PE are written to the symmetric memory of that destination PE. Note
that the ordering is provided separately on the sequences of puts from the calling PE to each distinct
destination PE. The shmem_quiet() routine should be used instead if ordering of puts is required when
multiple destination PEs are involved.
NOTES
The shmem_quiet function should be called if ordering of puts is desired when multiple remote PEs are
involved.
