[Openmp-dev] Dependency length in taskdeps

[Cownie, James H via Openmp-dev]

Victor,

What you are missing is that the way that task dependencies are defined in OpenMP means that the only thing that matters is the base address. Therefore there is no need to consider the length at runtime. (In effect the address is just a unique identifier which is easy to create, it has no real semantic content beyond that).

Subject: [Openmp-dev] Dependency length in taskdeps

Hi,
I have a question about dependency tracking in kmp_taskdeps.cpp.
I see that dependency edges are created between nodes based on the base address (base_addr) of the dependency. However, I don't see the length (len) being taken into consideration to determine node connections.
Am I missing something or is this a feature not yet implemented?
Regards,
Victor.
