SHMEM_QUIET(3)						     SHMEM_QUIET(3)

NAME
     shmem_quiet - Waits for completion of all outstanding remote writes
     issued by a processing element (PE)

SYNOPSIS
     C or C++:

	#include <mpp/shmem.h>

	void shmem_quiet(void);

     Fortran:

	CALL SHMEM_QUIET

DESCRIPTION
     shmem_quiet ensures ordering of put (remote write) operations.  All
     put operations issued to any processing element (PE) prior to the call
     to shmem_quiet are guaranteed to be visible to all other PEs no later
     than any subsequent memory load or store, remote put or get, or
     synchronization operations that follow the call to shmem_quiet.

NOTES
     shmem_quiet is most useful as a way of ensuring ordering of delivery
     of several put operations.	 For example, you might use shmem_quiet to
     await delivery of a block of data before issuing another put, which
     sets a completion flag on another PE.

     shmem_quiet is not usually needed if shmem_barrier_all(3) or
     shmem_barrier(3) are called.  The barrier routines all wait for the
     completion of outstanding remote writes (puts).

EXAMPLES
     PROGRAM COMPFLAG
     INTEGER FLAG_VAR, ARRAY(100), RECEIVER, SENDER
     COMMON/FLAG/FLAG_VAR
     COMMON/DATA/ARRAY
     INTRINSIC MY_PE

     FLAG_VAR = 0
     CALL SHMEM_BARRIER_ALL	     ! wait for FLAG_VAR to be initialized

     SENDER = 0			     ! PE 0 sends the data
     RECEIVER = 1		     ! PE 1 receives the data
     IF (MY_PE() .EQ. 0) THEN
       ARRAY = 33
       CALL SHMEM_PUT(ARRAY, ARRAY, 100, RECEIVER)   ! start sending data
       CALL SHMEM_QUIET				     ! wait for delivery
       CALL SHMEM_PUT(FLAG_VAR, 1, 1, RECEIVER)	     ! send completion flag
     ELSE IF (MY_PE() .EQ. RECEIVER) THEN
       CALL SHMEM_UDCFLUSH
       CALL SHMEM_WAIT(FLAG_VAR, 0)
       PRINT*,ARRAY		 ! ARRAY has been delivered
     ENDIF
     END
