Parameters

**Table 1** Parameters in the template
Parameter	Description
T	Operand data type.
isSetMask	Indicates whether to set mask inside the API. true: sets mask inside the API. false: sets mask outside the API. Developers need to use the SetVectorMask API to set the mask value. In this mode, the mask value in the input parameter of this API must be set to MASK_PLACEHOLDER.

**Table 2** Parameters
Parameter	Input/Output	Description
dstLocal	Output	Destination operand. The type is LocalTensor, and the supported TPosition is VECIN, VECCALC, or VECOUT. The start address of the LocalTensor must be 32-byte aligned. For the Atlas Training Series Product , the supported data types are uint16_t and int16_t.
src0Local and src1Local	Input	Source operand. The type is LocalTensor, and the supported TPosition is VECIN, VECCALC, or VECOUT. The start address of the LocalTensor must be 32-byte aligned. The two source operands must have the same data type as the destination operand. For the Atlas Training Series Product , the supported data types are uint16_t and int16_t.
calCount	Input	Number of elements of the input data.
mask	Input	mask is used to control the elements that participate in computation in each iteration. Contiguous mode: indicates the number of contiguous elements that participate in computation. The value range is related to the operand data type. The maximum number of elements that can be processed in each iteration varies according to the data type. When the operand is 16-bit, mask ∈ [1, 128]. When the operand is 32-bit, mask ∈ [1, 64]. When the operand is 64-bit, mask ∈ [1, 32]. Bitwise mode: controls the elements that participate in computation by bit. If a bit is set to 1, the corresponding element participates in the computation. If a bit is set to 0, the corresponding element is masked in the computation. The parameter type is a uint64_t array whose length is 2. For example, if mask = [0, 8] and 8 = 0b1000, only the fourth element participates in computation. The parameter value range is related to the operand data type. The maximum number of elements that can be processed in each iteration varies according to the data type. When the operand is 16-bit, mask[0] and mask[1] ∈ [0, 2⁶⁴ -1] and cannot be 0 at the same time. When the operand is 32-bit, mask[1] is 0 and mask[0] ∈ (0, 2⁶⁴ – 1]. When the operand is 64-bit, mask[1] is 0 and mask[0] ∈ (0, 2³² – 1].
repeatTimes	Input	Number of iteration repeats. The Vector Unit reads 256 bytes of contiguous data for computation each time. To read the complete data for processing, the unit needs to read the input data in multiple repeats. repeatTimes indicates the number of iterations. For details about this parameter, see Common Parameters.
repeatParams	Input	Parameters that control the operand address strides. They are of the BinaryRepeatParams type, and contain such parameters as those that specify the address stride of the operand for the same data block between adjacent iterations and address stride of the operand between different data blocks in a single iteration. For details about the address stride of the operand between adjacent iterations, see repeatStride. For details about the address stride of the operand between different data blocks in a single iteration, see dataBlockStride.

Precautions

To save memory space when using high-dimensional tensor sharding computation APIs, you can define a tensor shared by the source and destination operands (by address overlapping). The general instruction restrictions are as follows.
- In a single iteration, the source operand must completely overlap the destination operand. Partial overlapping is not supported.
- During multiple iterations, if the Nth destination operand is the (N+1)th source operand, address overlapping is not supported because the (N+1)th destination operand depends on the Nth result.

When the entire tensor computation API is used for symbol overloading, the computation workload is the total length of the destination LocalTensor.

For details about the alignment requirements of the operand address offset, see General Restrictions.
In particular, the Or operation of the uint32_t/int32_t type can be implemented by calling ReinterpretCast. That is, use ReinterpretCast of LocalTensor to convert the data type into the uint16_t/int16_t type, and then call Or for computation. Directly passing data of the uint32_t/int32_t type varies depending on the version. Considering the compatibility of operators in different versions, you are not advised to directly passing data in such a way.
- A compilation error message is displayed, indicating that these data types are not supported. The preceding description applies to the following models:

Example of high-dimensional tensor sharding computation (contiguous mask mode)

        
             uint64_t mask = 128;
// repeatTimes = 4. 128 elements are computed in one iteration, and 512 elements are computed in total.
// dstBlkStride, src0BlkStride, src1BlkStride = 1. Data is continuously read and written in a single iteration.
// dstRepStride, src0RepStride, src1RepStride = 8. Data is continuously read and written between adjacent iterations.
AscendC::Or(dstLocal, src0Local, src1Local, mask, 4, { 1, 1, 1, 8, 8, 8 });

Example of high-dimensional tensor sharding computation (bitwise mask mode)
