Requirements

Header: amp.h Namespace: Concurrency

abs

Returns the absolute value of the argument

inline int abs(int _X) restrict(amp);

Parameters

_X
Integer value

Returns the absolute value of the argument.

clamp

Computes the value of the first specified argument clamped to a range defined by the second and third specified arguments.

inline float clamp(
    float _X,
    float _Min,
    float _Max) restrict(amp);

inline int clamp(
    int _X,
    int _Min,
    int _Max) restrict(amp);

Parameters

_X
The value to be clamped

_Min
The lower bound of the clamping range.

_Max
The upper bound of the clamping range.

Return Value

The clamped value of _X.

countbits

Counts the number of set bits in _X

inline unsigned int countbits(unsigned int _X) restrict(amp);

create_accelerator_view

Creates an accelerator_view object from a pointer to a Direct3D device interface.

Syntax

accelerator_view create_accelerator_view(
    IUnknown * _D3D_device
    queuing_mode _Qmode = queuing_mode_automatic);

accelerator_view create_accelerator_view(
    accelerator& _Accelerator,
    bool _Disable_timeout
    queuing_mode _Qmode = queuing_mode_automatic);

Parameters

_Accelerator
The accelerator on which the new accelerator_view is to be created.

_D3D_device
The pointer to the Direct3D device interface.

_Disable_timeout
A Boolean parameter that specifies whether timeout should be disabled for the newly created accelerator_view. This corresponds to the D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DISABLE_GPU_TIMEOUT flag for Direct3D device creation and is used to indicate if the operating system should allow workloads that take more than 2 seconds to execute without resetting the device per the Windows timeout detection and recovery mechanism. Use of this flag is recommended if you need to perform time consuming tasks on the accelerator_view.

_Qmode
The queuing_mode to be used for the newly created accelerator_view. This parameter has a default value of queuing_mode_automatic.

Return Value

The accelerator_view object created from the passed Direct3D device interface.

Remarks

This function creates a new accelerator_view object from an existing pointer to a Direct3D device interface. If the function call succeeds, the reference count of the parameter is incremented by means of an AddRef call to the interface. You can safely release the object when it is no longer required in your DirectX code. If the method call fails, a runtime_exception is thrown.

The accelerator_view object that you create by using this function is thread safe. You must synchronize concurrent use of the accelerator_view object. Unsynchronized concurrent usage of the accelerator_view object and the raw ID3D11Device interface causes undefined behavior.

The C++ AMP runtime provides detailed error information in debug mode by using the D3D Debug layer if you use the D3D11_CREATE_DEVICE_DEBUG flag.

d3d_access_lock

Acquire a lock on an accelerator_view for the purpose of safely performing D3D operations on resources shared with the accelerator_view. The accelerator_view and all C++ AMP resources associated with this accelerator_view internally take this lock when performing operations and will block while another thread holds the D3D access lock. This lock is non-recursive: It is undefined behavior to call this function from a thread that already holds the lock. It is undefined behavior to perform operations on the accelerator_view or any data container associated with the accelerator_view from the thread that holds the D3D access lock. See also scoped_d3d_access_lock, a RAII-style class for a scope-based D3D access lock.

void __cdecl d3d_access_lock(accelerator_view& _Av);

Parameters

_Av
The accelerator_view to lock.

d3d_access_try_lock

Attempt to acquire the D3D access lock on an accelerator_view without blocking.

bool __cdecl d3d_access_try_lock(accelerator_view& _Av);

Parameters

_Av
The accelerator_view to lock.

Return Value

true if the lock was acquired, or false if it is currently held by another thread.

d3d_access_unlock

Release the D3D access lock on the given accelerator_view. If the calling thread does not hold the lock on the accelerator_view the results are undefined.

void __cdecl d3d_access_unlock(accelerator_view& _Av);

Parameters

_Av
The accelerator_view for which the lock is to be released.

firstbithigh

Returns The location of the first set bit
