psb_max -- Global maximum

call psb_max(icontxt, dat, root)

This subroutine implements a maximum valuereduction operation based on the underlying communication library.

Type:

Synchronous.

On Entry

icontxt

the communication context identifying the virtual parallel machine.
Scope: global.
Type: required.
Intent: in.
Specified as: an integer variable.

dat

The local contribution to the global maximum.
Scope: local.
Type: required.
Intent: inout.
Specified as: an integer or real variable, which may be a scalar, or a rank 1 or 2 array. Type, kind, rank and size must agree on all processes.

root

Process to hold the final maximum, or $-1$ to make it available on all processes.
Scope: global.
Type: optional.
Intent: in.
Specified as: an integer value $-1<= root <= np-1$, default -1.

On Return

dat

On destination process(es), the result of the maximum operation.
Scope: global.
Type: required.
Intent: in.
Specified as: an integer or real variable, which may be a scalar, or a rank 1 or 2 array. Type, kind, rank and size must agree on all processes.

Notes

1. The dat argument is both input and output, and its value may be changed even on processes different from the final result destination.
2. The dat argument may also be a long integer scalar.
