       Fortran:
       INCLUDE "mpp/shmem.fh"

       INTEGER dst, sst, nelems, PE_root, PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size
       INTEGER pSync(SHMEM_ALLTOALL_SYNC_SIZE)

       CALL SHMEM_ALLTOALL32(target, source, nelems,
       & PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size, fIpSync)

       CALL SHMEM_ALLTOALL64(target, source, nelems,
       & PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size, pSync)

       CALL SHMEM_ALLTOALLS32(target, source, dst, sst, nelems,
       & PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size, pSync)

       CALL SHMEM_ALLTOALLS64(target, source, dst, sst, nelems,
       & PE_start, logPE_stride, PE_size, pSync)

DESCRIPTION
       The  shmem_alltoalls  routines  are collective routines. Each PE in the
       Active set exchanges nelems strided data elements of size 32 bits  (for
       shmem_alltoalls32)  or  64  bits (for shmem_alltoalls64) with all other
       PEs in the set. Both strides, dst and sst,  must  be  greater  than  or
       equal  to  1. The sst*jth block sent from PE i to PE j is placed in the
       dst*ith block of the dest data object on PE j.  As with  all  OpenSHMEM
       collective  routines, these routines assume that only PEs in the Active
       set call the routine. If a PE not in the Active set calls an  OpenSHMEM
       collective  routine,  undefined  behavior results.  The values of argu-
       ments dst, sst, nelems, PE_start, logPE_stride,  and  PE_size  must  be
       equal  on  all PEs in the Active set. The same dest and source data ob-
       jects, and the same pSync work array must be passed to all PEs  in  the
       Active set.  Before any PE calls to a shmem_alltoalls routine, the fol-
       lowing conditions must exist (synchronization via  a  barrier  or  some
       other  method  is  often needed to ensure this): The pSync array on all
       PEs in the Active set is not still in  use  from  a  prior  call  to  a
       shmem_alltoalls  routine. The dest data object on all PEs in the Active
       set is ready to accept the shmem_alltoalls data.  Upon  return  from  a
       shmem_alltoalls  routine,  the  following is true for the local PE: Its
       dest symmetric data object is completely updated and the data has  been
       copied out of the source data object. The values in the pSync array are
       restored to the original values.

       The arguments are as follows:

       A symmetric data object with one of the following data types:

              shmem_alltoall32: Any noncharacter type that
                     has an element size of 32 bits. No Fortran derived  types
                     or C/C++ structures are allowed.

              shmem_alltoall64: Any noncharacter type that has an element size
                     of  64 bits. No Fortran derived types or C/C++ structures
                     are allowed.

       target A symmetric data object large enough to receive the combined to-
       tal of nelems elements from each PE in the Active set.

       source A  symmetric  data  object that contains nelems elements of data
              for each PE in the Active set, ordered according to  destination
              PE.

       dst    The stride between consecutive elements of the dest data object.
              The stride is scaled by the element size. A value of 1 indicates
              contiguous data. dst must be of type ptrdiff_t. If you are using
              Fortran, it must be a default integer value.

       sst    The stride between consecutive elements of the source  data  ob-
              ject. The stride is scaled by the element size. A value of 1 in-
              dicates contiguous data. sst must be of type ptrdiff_t.  If  you
              are using Fortran, it must be a default integer value.

       nelems The  number  of elements to exchange for each PE. nelems must be
              of type size_t for C/C++. If you are using Fortran, it must be a
              default integer value

       PE_start
              The  lowest virtual PE number of the active set of PEs. PE_start
              must be of type integer. If you are using Fortran, it must be  a
              default integer value.

       logPE_stride
              The  log  (base  2) of the stride between consecutive virtual PE
              numbers in the active set. log_PE_stride must be of  type  inte-
              ger.  If  you  are  using  Fortran, it must be a default integer
              value.

       PE_size
              The number of PEs in the active set. PE_size must be of type in-
              teger.  If  you  are using Fortran, it must be a default integer
              value.

       pSync  A symmetric work array. In C/C++, pSync must be of type long and
              size  _SHMEM_ALLTOALL_SYNC_SIZE.   In  Fortran, pSync must be of
              type integer and size SHMEM_ALLTOALL_SYNC_SIZE. Every element of
              this  array must be initialized with the value _SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE
              (in C/C++) or SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE (in Fortran) before  any  of  the
              PEs in the active set enter shmem_barrier().

       Upon  return  from a shmem_alltoalls routine, the following is true for
       the local PE: Its dest symmetric data object is completely updated  and
       the  data  has been copied out of the source data object. The values in
       the pSync array are restored to the original values.

       The values of arguments PE_root, PE_start,  logPE_stride,  and  PE_size
       must  be equal on all PEs in the active set. The same target and source
       data objects and the same pSync work array must be passed to all PEs in
       the active set.

       Before  any  PE calls a alltoall routine, you must ensure that the fol-
       lowing conditions exist (synchronization via a barrier  or  some  other
       method  is  often needed to ensure this): The pSync array on all PEs in
       the active set is not still in use from a prior call to a alltoall rou-
       tine.  The target array on all PEs in the active set is ready to accept
       the alltoall data.

NOTES
       The terms collective and symmetric are defined in intro_shmem(3).

       All SHMEM alltoall routines restore pSync  to  its  original  contents.
       Multiple  calls  to SHMEM routines that use the same pSync array do not
       require that pSync be reinitialized after the first call.

       You must ensure the that the pSync array is not being updated by any PE
       in  the active set while any of the PEs participates in processing of a
       SHMEM broadcast routine. Be careful to avoid these situations:  If  the
       pSync array is initialized at run time, some type of synchronization is
       needed to ensure that all PEs in the working set have initialized pSync
       before any of them enter a SHMEM routine called with the pSync synchro-
       nization array. A pSync array may  be  reused  on  a  subsequent  SHMEM
       broadcast  routine  only if none of the PEs in the active set are still
       processing a prior SHMEM alltoall routine call that used the same pSync
       array.  In general, this can be ensured only by doing some type of syn-
       chronization.  However, in the special case  of  SHMEM  routines  being
       called  with the same active set, you can allocate two pSync arrays and
       alternate between them on successive calls.

EXAMPLES
       C/C++ example:
       #include <shmem.h>
       #include <stdio.h>
       long pSync[SHMEM_ALLTOALL_SYNC_SIZE];
       int main(void)
       {
       int64_t *source, *dest;
       int i, count, pe;
       shmem_init();
       count = 2;
       dest = (int64_t*) shmem_malloc(count * shmem_n_pes() * sizeof(int64_t));
       source = (int64_t*) shmem_malloc(count * shmem_n_pes() * sizeof(int64_t));
       /* assign source values */
       for (pe=0; pe <shmem_n_pes(); pe++){
       for (i=0; i<count; i++){
       source[(pe*count)+i] = shmem_my_pe() + pe;
       dest[(pe*count)+i] = 9999;
       }
       }
       for (i=0; i< SHMEM_ALLTOALLS_SYNC_SIZE; i++) {
       pSync[i] = SHMEM_SYNC_VALUE;
       }
       /* wait for all PEs to initialize pSync */
       shmem_barrier_all();
       /* alltoalls on all PES */
       shmem_alltoalls64(dest, source, 1, 1, count, 0, 0, shmem_n_pes(), pSync);
       /* verify results */
       for (pe=0; pe<shmem_n_pes(); pe++) {
       for (i=0; i<count; i++){
       if (dest[(pe*count)+i] != shmem_my_pe() + pe) {
       printf("[%d] ERROR: dest[%d]=%ld, should be %d0,
       shmem_my_pe(),(pe*count)+i,dest[(pe*count)+i],
       shmem_n_pes() + pe);
       }
       }
       }
       shmem_barrier_all();
       shmem_free(dest);
       shmem_free(source);
       shmem_finalize();
       return 0;
       }
