acc_present_or_create – If the data is not present on the device, allocate device memory and map it to host memory.#

Description

This function tests if the host data specified by a and of length len is present or not. If it is not present, then device memory will be allocated and mapped to host memory. In C/C++, the device address of the newly allocated device memory is returned.

In Fortran, two (2) forms are supported. In the first form, a specifies a contiguous array section. The second form a specifies a variable or array element and len specifies the length in bytes.

Note that acc_present_or_create and acc_pcreate exist for backward compatibility with OpenACC 2.0; use acc_create – Allocate device memory and map it to host memory. instead.
