Hi,

are SDAG serial blocks only necessary for threaded entry methods?

Since "ordinary entry methods are completely non-preemptive" (p. 8, Charm++ Manual), I don't otherwise understand the statement: "atomic code [...] without returning control to the Charm++ runtime scheduler" (p. 28, Charm++ Manual).

Thanks already,

nick
