.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fI\%shmem_wait\fP and \fI\%shmem_wait_until\fP wait for \fBivar\fP to be changed by a
remote write or atomic swap issued by a different processor. These
routines can be used for point\-to\- point directed synchronization. A
call to \fI\%shmem_wait\fP does not return until some other processor writes a
value, not equal to cmp_value, into \fBivar\fP on the waiting processor. A
call to \fI\%shmem_wait_until\fP does not return until some other processor
changes \fBivar\fP to satisfy the condition implied by cmp and cmp_value.
This mechanism is useful when a processor needs to tell another
processor that it has completed some action.
.sp
The arguments are as follows:
.INDENT 0.0
.TP
.B target
The remotely accessible integer data object to be updated on the
remote PE. If you are using C/C++, the type of target should match
that implied in the SYNOPSIS section. If you are using the Fortran
compiler, it must be of type integer with an element size of 4 bytes
for SHMEM_INT4_ADD and 8 bytes for SHMEM_INT8_ADD.
.TP
.B value
The value to be atomically added to target. If you are using C/C++,
the type of value should match that implied in the SYNOPSIS section.
If you are using Fortran, it must be of type integer with an element
size of target.
.TP
.B pe
An integer that indicates the PE number upon which target is to be
updated. If you are using Fortran, it must be a default integer
value.
.TP
.B ivar
A remotely accessible integer variable that is being updated by
another PE. If you are using C/C++, the type of ivar should match
that implied in the SYNOPSIS section. If you are using Fortran, ivar
must be a specific sized integer type according to the function being
called, as follows:
.sp
\fI\%shmem_wait\fP, \fI\%shmem_wait_until\fP:** default INTEGER
.sp
shmem_int4_wait, shmem_int4_wait_until:** INTEGER*4
.sp
shmem_int8_wait, shmem_int8_wait_until:** INTEGER*8
.TP
.B cmp
The compare operator that compares ivar with cmp_value. cmp must be
of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be of default
kind. If you are using C/C++, the type of cmp should match that
implied in the SYNOPSIS section. The following cmp values are
supported:
.INDENT 7.0
.TP
.B SHMEM_CMP_EQ
Equal
.TP
.B SHMEM_CMP_NE
Not equal
.TP
.B SHMEM_CMP_GT
Greater than
.TP
.B SHMEM_CMP_LE
Less than or equal to
.TP
.B SHMEM_CMP_LT
Less than
.TP
.B SHMEM_CMP_GE
Greater than or equal to
.UNINDENT
.TP
.B cmp_value
cmp_value must be of type integer. If you are using C/C++, the type
of cmp_value should match thatimplied in the SYNOPSIS section. If you
are using Fortran, cmp_value must be an integer of the same size and
kind as ivar. The \fI\%shmem_wait\fP routines return when ivar is no longer
equal to cmp_value. The \fI\%shmem_wait_until\fP routines return when the
compare condition is true. The compare condition is defined by the
ivar argument compared with the cmp_value using the comparison
operator, cmp.
