shmem_finalize - A collective operation that releases resources
used by the OpenSHMEM library. This only terminates the Open-SHMEM portion
of a program, not the entire program.
C or C++:
#include <mpp/shmem.h>
void shmem_finalize(void);
Fortran:
include ’mpp/shmem.fh’
CALL SHMEM_FINALIZE
shmem_finalize is a collective operation that ends the OpenSHMEM
portion of a program previously initialized by shmem_init and releases
resources used by the OpenSHMEM library. This collective operation requires
all PEs to participate in the call. There is an implicit global barrier
in shmem_finalize so that pending communication is completed, and no resources
can be released until all PEs have entered shmem_finalize. shmem_finalize
must be the last OpenSHMEM library call encountered in the OpenSHMEM portion
of a program. A call to shmem_finalize will release any resources initialized
by a corresponding call to shmem_init. All processes and threads that represent
the PEs will still exist after the call to shmem_finalize returns, but
they will no longer have access to any resources that have been released.
