mkl_set_memory_limit
On Linux, sets the limit of memory that Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) can allocate for a specified type of memory.
Syntax
stat = mkl_set_memory_limit( mem_type, limit )
Fortran Include Files/Modules
- Include file: mkl.fi
- Module (compiled): mkl_service.mod
- Module (source): mkl_service.f90
Input Parameters
Name |
Type |
Description |
---|---|---|
mem_type |
INTEGER*4 |
Type of memory to limit. Possible values: MKL_MEM_MCDRAM - Multi-Channel Dynamic Random Access Memory (MCDRAM). |
limit |
INTEGER*4 for 32-bit systems |
Memory limit in megabytes. |
Description
This function sets the limit for the amount of memory that Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) can allocate for the specified memory type. The limit bounds both internal allocations (inside Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) computation routines) and external allocations (in a call tomkl_malloc, mkl_calloc, or mkl_realloc). By default no limit is set for memory allocation.
Call mkl_set_memory_limitat most once, prior to calling any other Intel® oneAPI Math Kernel Library (oneMKL) function in your application except mkl_set_interface_layer and mkl_set_threading_layer.
- Allocation in MCDRAM requires libmemkind and libjemalloc dynamic libraries which are a part of Intel® Manycore Platform Software Package (Intel® MPSP) for Linux*.
The mkl_set_memory_limit function takes precedence over the MKL_FAST_MEMORY_LIMIT environment variable.
