mkl_finalize
Terminates Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) execution environment and frees resources allocated by the library.
Syntax
void mkl_finalize(void);
Include Files
- mkl.h
Description
This function frees resources allocated by Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL). Once this function is called, the application can no longer call Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) functions other thanmkl_finalize.
In particular, the mkl_finalizefunction enables you to free resources when a third-party shared library is statically linked to Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL). To avoid resource leaks that may happen when a shared library is loaded and unloaded multiple times, callmkl_finalize each time the library is unloaded. The recommended method to do this depends on the operating system:
On Linux* or macOS*, place the call into a shared library destructor.
On Windows*, call mkl_finalize from the DLL_PROCESS_DETACH handler of DllMain.
Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) shared libraries automatically perform finalization when they are unloaded. If an application is statically linked to Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL), the operating system frees all resources allocated by Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) during termination of the process associated with the application.
