Detailed Description

template<typename OffsetT>
struct cub::GridEvenShare< OffsetT >

GridEvenShare is a descriptor utility for distributing input among CUDA thread blocks in an "even-share" fashion. Each thread block gets roughly the same number of input tiles.

Overview

Each thread block is assigned a consecutive sequence of input tiles. To help preserve alignment and eliminate the overhead of guarded loads for all but the last thread block, to GridEvenShare assigns one of three different amounts of work to a given thread block: "big", "normal", or "last". The "big" workloads are one scheduling grain larger than "normal". The "last" work unit for the last thread block may be partially-full if the input is not an even multiple of the scheduling grain size.

Before invoking a child grid, a parent thread will typically construct an instance of GridEvenShare. The instance can be passed to child thread blocks which can initialize their per-thread block offsets using BlockInit().

BlockInit()

template<typename OffsetT>

template<int TILE_ITEMS>

__device__ __forceinline__ void cub::GridEvenShare< OffsetT >::BlockInit ( OffsetT  block_offset, OffsetT  block_end  )

inline

Block-initialization, specialized for a "raking" access pattern in which each thread block is assigned a consecutive sequence of input tiles.

Parameters

[in]	block_offset	Threadblock begin offset (inclusive)
[in]	block_end	Threadblock end offset (exclusive)

DispatchInit()

template<typename OffsetT>

__host__ __device__ __forceinline__ void cub::GridEvenShare< OffsetT >::DispatchInit ( OffsetT  num_items, int  max_grid_size, int  tile_items  )

inline

Dispatch initializer. To be called prior prior to kernel launch.

Parameters

num_items	Total number of input items
max_grid_size	Maximum grid size allowable (actual grid size may be less if not warranted by the the number of input items)
tile_items	Number of data items per input tile
