The Cell Messaging Layer 1.1 (Default branch) |
|
|
The Cell Messaging Layer is a communication library for clusters of Cell Broadband Engine processors. It implements a subset of the popular MPI message-passing API on the Cell's SPE processors, with one MPI rank per SPE across any number of Cells and the ability for any SPE to communicate directly with any other SPE, even across a network. The Cell Messaging Layer thereby makes programming clusters of Cell processors similar to programming clusters of conventional CPUs.

Changes:
On the PPE side, some of cellmsg_init()'s arguments have been moved to cellmsg_run(). The PPE API now includes cellmsg_finalize(), cellmsg_ppes(), and cellmsg_this_ppe(). The SPE API is unmodified.
