POLYTYPE_ATEX_MASK_LIT, POLYTYPE_PTEX_MASK_LIT – Polygon rendering mode type Allegro game programming library. Synopsis#include <allegro.h> #define POLYTYPE_ATEX_MASK_LIT #define POLYTYPE_PTEX_MASK_LIT DescriptionLike POLYTYPE_ATEX_LIT and POLYTYPE_PTEX_LIT, but zero texture map pixels are skipped, allowing parts of the texture map to be transparent. See Alsopolygon3d(3), POLYTYPE_ATEX_LIT(3), POLYTYPE_PTEX_LIT(3), ex3d(3)
POLYTYPE_ATEX_MASK, POLYTYPE_PTEX_MASK – Polygon rendering mode type Allegro game programming library. Synopsis#include <allegro.h> #define POLYTYPE_ATEX_MASK #define POLYTYPE_PTEX_MASK DescriptionLike POLYTYPE_ATEX and POLYTYPE_PTEX, but zero texture map pixels are skipped, allowing parts of the texture map to be transparent. See Alsopolygon3d(3), POLYTYPE_ATEX(3), POLYTYPE_PTEX(3), ex3d(3)
POLYTYPE_ATEX_LIT, POLYTYPE_PTEX_LIT – Polygon rendering mode type Allegro game programming library. Synopsis#include <allegro.h> #define POLYTYPE_ATEX_LIT #define POLYTYPE_PTEX_LIT DescriptionLike POLYTYPE_ATEX and POLYTYPE_PTEX, but the global color_map table (for 256-color modes) or blender function (for non-MMX truecolor modes) is used to blend the texture with a light level taken from the `c’ value in the vertex structure….
POLYTYPE_ATEX – Polygon rendering mode type Allegro game programming library. Synopsis#include <allegro.h> #define POLYTYPE_ATEX DescriptionAn affine texture mapped polygon. This stretches the texture across the polygon with a simple 2d linear interpolation, which is fast but not mathematically correct. It can look OK if the polygon is fairly small or flat-on to the camera, but…
PMWEBAPI – introduction to the Performance Metrics Web Application Programming Interface OverviewThe PMWEBAPI interface is a binding of a subset of the PMAPI to the web. It uses HTTP as transport, REST as organizational style for request/parameter encoding (the GET and POST methods are interchangeable), and JSON as response encoding. A context identifier is used…

PCPIntro – introduction to the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) libraries IntroductionPerformance Co-Pilot (PCP) is a toolkit designed for monitoring and managing system-level performance. The PCP libraries support the APIs required to create new performance monitoring tools and new agents (or PMDAs) to export performance data. The libpcp library is used in both cases. The libpcp_pmda library…
PAPI_write – Write counter values into counters. SynopsisDetailed DescriptionParameters: EventSet an integer handle for a PAPI event set as created by PAPI_create_eventset *values an array to hold the counter values of the counting events Return values: PAPI_ENOEVST The EventSet specified does not exist. PAPI_ECMP PAPI_write() is not implemented for this architecture. PAPI_ESYS The EventSet is…
PAPI_unregister_thread – Notify PAPI that a thread has ‘disappeared’. SynopsisDetailed DescriptionReturn values: PAPI_ENOMEM Space could not be allocated to store the new thread information. PAPI_ESYS A system or C library call failed inside PAPI, see the errno variable. PAPI_ECMP Hardware counters for this thread could not be initialized. PAPI_unregister_thread should be called when the user…
PAPI_unlock – Unlock one of the mutex variables defined in papi.h. SynopsisDetailed DescriptionParameters: lck an integer value specifying one of the two user locks: PAPI_USR1_LOCK or PAPI_USR2_LOCK PAPI_unlock() unlocks the mutex acquired by a call to PAPI_lock .

PAPI_thread_init – Initialize thread support in the PAPI library. SynopsisDetailed Description@param *id_fn Pointer to a function that returns current thread ID. PAPI_thread_init initializes thread support in the PAPI library. Applications that make no use of threads do not need to call this routine. This function MUST return a UNIQUE thread ID for every new thread/LWP…
PAPI_thread_id – Get the thread identifier of the current thread. SynopsisDetailed Description@retval PAPI_EMISC is returned if there are no threads registered. @retval -1 is returned if the thread id function returns an error. This function returns a valid thread identifier. It calls the function registered with PAPI through a call to PAPI_thread_init().unsigned long tid; if…
