DESCRIPTION An address vector set (AV set) represents an ordered subset of addresses of an address vector. AV sets are used to identify the participants in a col- lective operation. Endpoints use the fi_join_collective() operation to as- sociate itself with an AV set. The join collective operation provides an fi_addr that is used when communicating with a collective group. The creation and manipulation of an AV set is a local operation. No fabric traffic is exchanged between peers. As a result, each peer is responsible for creating matching AV sets as part of their collective membership defin- ition. See fi_collective(3) for a discussion of membership models. fi_av_set The fi_av_set call creates a new AV set. The initial properties of the AV set are specified through the struct fi_av_set_attr parameter. This struc- ture is defined below, and allows including a subset of addresses in the AV set as part of AV set creation. Addresses may be added or removed from an AV set using the AV set interfaces defined below. fi_av_set_attr struct fi_av_set_attr { size_t count; fi_addr_t start_addr; fi_addr_t end_addr; uint64_t stride; size_t comm_key_size; uint8_t *comm_key; uint64_t flags; }; count Indicates the expected the number of members that will be a part of the AV set. The provider uses this to optimize resource alloca- tions. If count is 0, the provider will select a size based on available system configuration data or underlying limitations. start_addr / end_addr The starting and ending addresses, inclusive, to include as part of the AV set. The use of start and end address require that the asso- ciated AV have been created as type FI_AV_TABLE. Valid addresses in the AV which fall within the specified range and which meet other requirements (such as stride) will be added as initial members to the AV set. The start_addr and end_addr must be set to FI_ADDR_NO- TAVAIL if creating an empty AV set, a communication key is being provided, or the AV is of type FI_AV_MAP. The number of addresses between start_addr and end_addr must be less than or equal to the specified count value. stride The number of entries between successive addresses included in the AV set. The AV set will include all addresses from start_addr + stride x i, for increasing, non-negative, integer values of i, up to end_addr. A stride of 1 indicates that all addresses between start_addr and end_addr should be added to the AV set. Stride should be set to 0 unless the start_addr and end_addr fields are valid. comm_key_size The length of the communication key in bytes. This field should be 0 if a communication key is not available. comm_key If supported by the fabric, this represents a key associated with the AV set. The communication key is used by applications that di- rectly manage collective membership through a fabric management agent or resource manager. The key is used to convey that results of the membership setup to the underlying provider. The use and format of a communication key is fabric provider specific. flags Flags may be used to configure the AV set, including restricting which collective operations the AV set needs to support. See the flags section for a list of flags that may be specified when creat- ing the AV set. fi_av_set_union The AV set union call adds all addresses in the source AV set that are not in the destination AV set to the destination AV set. Where ordering mat- ters, the newly inserted addresses are placed at the end of the AV set. fi_av_set_intersect The AV set intersect call remove all addresses from the destination AV set that are not also members of the source AV set. The order of the addresses in the destination AV set is unchanged. fi_av_set_diff The AV set difference call removes all address from the destination AV set that are also members of the source AV set. The order of the addresses in the destination AV set is unchanged. fi_av_set_insert The AV set insert call appends the specified address to the end of the AV set. fi_av_set_remove The AV set remove call removes the specified address from the given AV set. The order of the remaining addresses in the AV set is unchanged. fi_av_set_addr Returns an address that may be used to communicate with all current members of an AV set. This is a local operation only that does not involve network communication. The returned address may be used as input into fi_join_col- lective. Note that attempting to use the address returned from fi_av_set_addr (e.g. passing it to fi_join_collective) while simultaneously modifying the addresses stored in an AV set results in undefined behavior. fi_close Closes an AV set and releases all resources associated with it. Any opera- tions active at the time an AV set is closed will be aborted, with the re- sult of the collective undefined. FLAGS The following flags may be specified as part of AV set creation. FI_UNIVERSE When set, then the AV set will be created containing all addresses stored in the corresponding AV. FI_BARRIER_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support barrier operations. FI_BROADCAST_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support broadcast opera- tions. FI_ALLTOALL_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support all to all opera- tions. FI_ALLREDUCE_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support all reduce opera- tions. FI_ALLGATHER_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support all gather opera- tions. FI_REDUCE_SCATTER_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support reduce scatter op- erations. FI_REDUCE_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support reduce operations. FI_SCATTER_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support scatter operations. FI_GATHER_SET If set, the AV set will be configured to support gather operations. NOTES Developers who are familiar with MPI will find that AV sets are similar to MPI groups, and may act as a direct mapping in some, but not all, situa- tions. By default an AV set will be created to support all collective operations supported by the underlying provider (see fi_query_collective). Users may reduce resource requirements by specifying only those collection operations needed by the AV set through the use of creation flags: FI_BARRIER_SET, FI_BROADCAST_SET, etc. If no such flags are specified, the AV set will be configured to support any that are supported. It is an error for a user to request an unsupported collective. RETURN VALUES Returns 0 on success. On error, a negative value corresponding to fabric errno is returned. Fabric errno values are defined in rdma/fi_errno.h. SEE ALSO fi_av(3), fi_collective(3) AUTHORS OpenFabrics. Libfabric Programmer's Manual 2021-10-07 fi_av_set(3)
