ALIGNED Clause
Parallel Directive Clause: Specifies that all variables in a list are aligned.
ALIGNED (list [:n])
list |
Is the name of one or more variables. Each name must be separated by a comma. Any variable that appears in list cannot appear in more than one ALIGNED clause. |
n |
Must be a constant positive integer expression; it indicates the number of bytes for the alignment. If n is not specified, the compiler uses the default alignment specified for SIMD instructions on the target platform. |
The ALIGNED clause declares that the location of each list item is aligned to the number of bytes expressed in the optional alignment parameter n of the ALIGNED clause. If a list item has the ALLOCATABLE attribute, its allocation status must be allocated. If it has the POINTER attribute, its association status must be associated. If the type of a list item is type(C_PTR) or a Cray pointer, the item must be defined.
Be careful when using the ALIGNED clause. Instructing the compiler to implement all array references with aligned data movement instructions will cause a runtime exception if some of the access patterns are actually unaligned.
