Restrictions

For SIMT programming, this API is not supported.

Header Files to Be Included

To use this API, the simt_api/vector_functions.h header file must be included.

#include "simt_api/vector_functions.h"

Examples

For SIMD and SIMT programming:

__simt_vf__ __launch_bounds__(1024) inline void kernel_make_char2(__gm__ char2* dst, __gm__ signed char* x, __gm__ signed char* y)
{
    int idx = threadIdx.x + blockIdx.x * blockDim.x;
    dst[idx] = make_char2(x[idx], y[idx]);
}
