Detailed Description

Interface class for the splitPC8D kernel.

splitPC8D splits an 8-D point cloud into 4-D geometry points and RGBA color points. For more details, look at the kernel's documentation.

Note: The splitPC8D kernel is available in kernels/imageSupport_kernels.cl.; The class creates its own buffers. If you would like to provide your own buffers, call get to get references to the placeholders within the class and assign them to your buffers. You will have to do this strictly before the call to init. You can also call get (after the call to init) to get a reference to a buffer within the class and assign it to another kernel class instance further down in your task pipeline.

The following input/output OpenCL memory objects are created by a SplitPC8D instance:

Name	Type	Placement	I/O	Use	Properties	Size
H_IN	Buffer	Host	I	Staging	CL_MEM_READ_WRITE	\(widthheightsizeof\ (cl\_float8)\)
H_OUT_PC4D	Buffer	Host	O	Staging	CL_MEM_READ_WRITE	\(widthheightsizeof\ (cl\_float4)\)
H_OUT_RGBA	Buffer	Host	O	Staging	CL_MEM_READ_WRITE	\(widthheightsizeof\ (cl\_float4)\)
D_IN	Buffer	Device	I	Processing	CL_MEM_READ_ONLY	\(widthheightsizeof\ (cl\_float8)\)
D_OUT_PC4D	Buffer	Device	O	Processing	CL_MEM_WRITE_ONLY	\(widthheightsizeof\ (cl\_float4)\)
D_OUT_RGBA	Buffer	Device	O	Processing	CL_MEM_WRITE_ONLY	\(widthheightsizeof\ (cl\_float4)\)

Member Enumeration Documentation

enum cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::Memory : uint8_t

strong

Enumerates the memory objects handled by the class.

Note: H_* names refer to staging buffers on the host.; D_* names refer to buffers on the device.

Enumerator
H_IN	Input staging buffer for the 8-D point cloud.
H_OUT_PC4D	Output staging buffer for the 4-D homogeneous coordinates.
H_OUT_RGBA	Output staging buffer for the RGBA values.
D_IN	Input buffer for the 8-D point cloud.
D_OUT_PC4D	Output buffer for the 4-D homogeneous coordinates.
D_OUT_RGBA	Output buffer for the RGBA values.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::SplitPC8D	(	clutils::CLEnv &	_env,
		clutils::CLEnvInfo< 1 >	_info
	)

Configures an OpenCL environment as specified by _info.

Parameters

[in]	_env	opencl environment.
[in]	_info	opencl configuration. Specifies the context, queue, etc, to be used.

Member Function Documentation

cl::Memory & cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::get ( SplitPC8D::Memory mem )

Returns a reference to an internal memory object.

This interface exists to allow CL memory sharing between different kernels.

Parameters

[in] mem enumeration value specifying the requested memory object.

Returns: A reference to the requested memory object.

unsigned int cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::getOffset ( )

Gets the offset.

Returns: The offset.

void cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::init	(	unsigned int	_n,
		unsigned int	_offset = `0`,
		Staging	_staging = `Staging::IO`
	)

Configures kernel execution parameters.

Sets up memory objects as necessary, and defines the kernel workspaces.

Note: If you have assigned a memory object to one member variable of the class before the call to init, then that memory will be maintained. Otherwise, a new memory object will be created.

Parameters

[in]	_n	number of points in the point cloud.
[in]	_offset	number of points to skip in the output arrays. The kernel will write in the output arrays starting at position `_offset` (`cl\_float4` types are considered). Use the maximum offset you expect to need, so the required memory can be allocated. You can change it afterwards dynamically to the one required at any moment.
[in]	_staging	flag to indicate whether or not to instantiate the staging buffers.

void * cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::read	(	SplitPC8D::Memory	mem = `SplitPC8D::Memory::H_OUT_PC4D`,
		bool	block = `CL_TRUE`,
		const std::vector< cl::Event > *	events = `nullptr`,
		cl::Event *	event = `nullptr`
	)

Performs a data transfer to a staging buffer.

The transfer happens from a device buffer to the associated (specified) staging buffer on the host.

Parameters

[in]	mem	enumeration value specifying an output staging buffer.
[in]	block	a flag to indicate whether to perform a blocking or a non-blocking operation.
[in]	events	a wait-list of events.
[out]	event	event associated with the read operation to the staging buffer.

void cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::run	(	const std::vector< cl::Event > *	events = `nullptr`,
		cl::Event *	event = `nullptr`
	)

Executes the necessary kernels.

The function call is non-blocking.

Parameters

[in]	events	a wait-list of events.
[out]	event	event associated with the last kernel execution.

template<typename period >

double cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::run	(	clutils::GPUTimer< period > &	timer,
		const std::vector< cl::Event > *	events = `nullptr`
	)

inline

Executes the necessary kernels.

This run instance is used for profiling.

Parameters

[in]	timer	`GPUTimer` that does the profiling of the kernel executions.
[in]	events	a wait-list of events.

Returns: Τhe total execution time measured by the timer.

void cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::setOffset ( unsigned int _offset )

Sets the offset.

Updates the kernel argument for the offset.

Parameters

[in] _offset the offset to set.

void cl_algo::GF::SplitPC8D::write	(	SplitPC8D::Memory	mem = `SplitPC8D::Memory::D_IN`,
		void *	ptr = `nullptr`,
		bool	block = `CL_FALSE`,
		const std::vector< cl::Event > *	events = `nullptr`,
		cl::Event *	event = `nullptr`
	)

Performs a data transfer to a device buffer.

The transfer happens from a staging buffer on the host to the associated (specified) device buffer.

Parameters

[in]	mem	enumeration value specifying an input device buffer.
[in]	ptr	a pointer to an array holding input data. If not NULL, the data from `ptr` will be copied to the associated staging buffer.
[in]	block	a flag to indicate whether to perform a blocking or a non-blocking operation.
[in]	events	a wait-list of events.
[out]	event	event associated with the write operation to the device buffer.
