|
||
|
|
<p>In order to obtain maximum performance in FFTW, you should store your
|
||
|
|
data in arrays that have been specially aligned in memory (see <a href="SIMD-alignment-and-fftw_005fmalloc.html">SIMD alignment and fftw_malloc</a>). Enforcing alignment also permits you to
|
||
|
|
safely use the new-array execute functions (see <a href="New_002darray-Execute-Functions.html">New-array Execute Functions</a>) to apply a given plan to more than one pair of in/out
|
||
|
|
arrays. Unfortunately, standard Fortran arrays do <em>not</em> provide
|
||
|
|
any alignment guarantees. The <em>only</em> way to allocate aligned
|
||
|
|
memory in standard Fortran is to allocate it with an external C
|
||
|
|
function, like the <code>fftw_alloc_real</code> and
|
||
|
|
<code>fftw_alloc_complex</code> functions. Fortunately, Fortran 2003 provides
|
||
|
|
a simple way to associate such allocated memory with a standard Fortran
|
||
|
|
array pointer that you can then use normally.
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<p>We therefore recommend allocating all your input/output arrays using
|
||
|
|
the following technique:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol>
|
||
|
|
<li> Declare a <code>pointer</code>, <code>arr</code>, to your array of the desired type
|
||
|
|
and dimensions. For example, <code>real(C_DOUBLE), pointer :: a(:,:)</code>
|
||
|
|
for a 2d real array, or <code>complex(C_DOUBLE_COMPLEX), pointer ::
|
||
|
|
a(:,:,:)</code> for a 3d complex array.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</li><li> The number of elements to allocate must be an
|
||
|
|
<code>integer(C_SIZE_T)</code>. You can either declare a variable of this
|
||
|
|
type, e.g. <code>integer(C_SIZE_T) :: sz</code>, to store the number of
|
||
|
|
elements to allocate, or you can use the <code>int(..., C_SIZE_T)</code>
|
||
|
|
intrinsic function. e.g. set <code>sz = L * M * N</code> or use
|
||
|
|
<code>int(L * M * N, C_SIZE_T)</code> for an L × M × N
|
||
|
|
array.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</li><li> Declare a <code>type(C_PTR) :: p</code> to hold the return value from
|
||
|
|
FFTW’s allocation routine. Set <code>p = fftw_alloc_real(sz)</code> for a real array, or <code>p = fftw_alloc_complex(sz)</code> for a complex array.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</li><li> <span id="index-c_005ff_005fpointer-2"></span>
|
||
|
|
Associate your pointer <code>arr</code> with the allocated memory <code>p</code>
|
||
|
|
using the standard <code>c_f_pointer</code> subroutine: <code>call
|
||
|
|
c_f_pointer(p, arr, [...dimensions...])</code>, where
|
||
|
|
<code>[...dimensions...])</code> are an array of the dimensions of the array
|
||
|
|
(in the usual Fortran order). e.g. <code>call c_f_pointer(p, arr,
|
||
|
|
[L,M,N])</code> for an L × M × N
|
||
|
|
array. (Alternatively, you can
|
||
|
|
omit the dimensions argument if you specified the shape explicitly
|
||
|
|
when declaring <code>arr</code>.) You can now use <code>arr</code> as a usual
|
||
|
|
multidimensional array.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</li><li> When you are done using the array, deallocate the memory by <code>call
|
||
|
|
fftw_free(p)</code> on <code>p</code>.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
</li></ol>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>For example, here is how we would allocate an L × M
|
||
|
|
2d real array:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="example">
|
||
|
|
<pre class="example"> real(C_DOUBLE), pointer :: arr(:,:)
|
||
|
|
type(C_PTR) :: p
|
||
|
|
p = fftw_alloc_real(int(L * M, C_SIZE_T))
|
||
|
|
call c_f_pointer(p, arr, [L,M])
|
||
|
|
<em>...use arr and arr(i,j) as usual...</em>
|
||
|
|
call fftw_free(p)
|
||
|
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>and here is an L × M × N
|
||
|
|
3d complex array:
|
||
|
|
</p>
|
||
|
|
<div class="example">
|
||
|
|
<pre class="example"> complex(C_DOUBLE_COMPLEX), pointer :: arr(:,:,:)
|
||
|
|
type(C_PTR) :: p
|
||
|
|
p = fftw_alloc_complex(int(L * M * N, C_SIZE_T))
|
||
|
|
call c_f_pointer(p, arr, [L,M,N])
|
||
|
|
<em>...use arr and arr(i,j,k) as usual...</em>
|
||
|
|
call fftw_free(p)
|
||
|
|
</pre></div>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>See <a href="Reversing-array-dimensions.html">Reversing array dimensions</a> for an example allocating a
|
||
|
|
single array and associating both real and complex array pointers with
|
||
|
|
it, for in-place real-to-complex transforms.
