Hello OpenSHMEM community members, The Intel OpenSHMEM team is thrilled to announce the second open-source release of Intel® SHMEM library, v1.1.0. Intel SHMEM is a C++ software library that enables applications to invoke GPU-initiated OpenSHMEM communication APIs within device kernels implemented in SYCL. It supports Intel HPC/AI-focused GPUs, beginning with the Intel® Data Center GPU Max Series. Below is a summarized list of features and enhancements that are introduced in Intel SHMEM v1.1.0.
* Support for OpenSHMEM 1.5 teams and team-based collective operations * Device and host API support for strided RMA operations - ibput and ibget, from OpenSHMEM 1.6 * Device and host API support for non-blocking atomic operations * Device and host API support for size-based RMA and signaling operations * Device and host API support for all/any/some versions of point-to-point synchronization operations * Device and host API support for signal set, add, and wait-until operations * Fixed implementation of `ishmem_free` * Compatible with Sandia OpenSHMEM (SOS) v1.5.3rc1<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/Sandia-OpenSHMEM/SOS/releases__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_pXmu6-lc$ > and newer releases * Support for Open Fabrics Interfaces<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/ofiwg/libfabric__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_pX-x-TTA$ > (OFI) PSM3 provider enabled networks via SOS, in addition to CXI (HPE Slingshot) and RXM/Verbs (InfiniBand) * Updated specification<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://oneapi-src.github.io/ishmem/intro.html__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_pYK1VqVk$ > with the teams API, size-based RMA, non-blocking AMO, team-based collectives, all/any/some flavors of synchronization operations, utility extensions for print messages, etc. * An improved and additional set of unit tests<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/oneapi-src/ishmem/tree/main/test/unit/SHMEM__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_pIchrSIA$ > covering functionality of the APIs * New examples<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/oneapi-src/ishmem/tree/main/examples/SHMEM__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_pMlfmKik$ > illustrating use cases of Intel® SHMEM functionalities including the Teams APIs * Updated launcher script<https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/oneapi-src/ishmem/blob/main/scripts/ishmrun__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_pLqp10sA$ > to launch Intel® SHMEM applications on the available SYCL devices in the system The full source code of Intel SHMEM v1.1.0 can be accessed through the GitHub repo: https://urldefense.us/v3/__https://github.com/oneapi-src/ishmem__;!!G_uCfscf7eWS!bR9foQm-LsWVthfVnJM7MUYUTHl-wzqzHAErJZMNoShTK6ujH8YspxVCs4hCepSQQBdE782qACaR5l_p9lmkUCo$ .
