The routines return after posting the operation. The operation is considered complete after a subsequent call to shmem_quiet <#shmem-quiet>. At the completion of shmem_quiet <#shmem-quiet>, the data has been copied into the dest array on the destination PE. The delivery of data words into the data object on the destination PE may occur in any order. Furthermore, two successive put routines may deliver data out of order unless a call to shmem_fence <#shmem-fence> is introduced between the two calls.

The arguments are as follows:

Data object to be updated on the remote PE. This data object must be remotely accessible.
Data object containing the data to be copied.
Number of elements in the dest and source arrays. nelems must be of type size_t for C. If you are using Fortran, it must be a constant, variable, or array element of default integer type.
PE number of the remote PE. pe must be of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be a constant, variable, or array element of default integer type.

If you are using Fortran, data types must be of default size. For example, a real variable must be declared as REAL, REAL*4, or REAL(KIND=4).

See intro_shmem(3) for a definition of the term remotely accessible.

Consider this simple example for C.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <mpp/shmem.h>
main()
{
  long source[10] = { 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 };
  static long target[10];
  shmem_init();
  if (shmem_my_pe() == 0) {
    /* put 10 words into target on PE 1 */
    shmem_long_put_nbi(target, source, 10, 1);
    shmem_quiet();
  }
  shmem_barrier_all();  /* sync sender and receiver */
  if (shmem_my_pe() == 1)
    shmem_udcflush();  /* not required on Altix systems */
  printf("target[0] on PE %d is %d\n", shmem_my_pe(), target[0]);
}
