# PetscLogGpuFlops

Log how many flops are performed in a calculation on the device

## Synopsis

    static inline PetscErrorCode PetscLogGpuFlops(PetscLogDouble n)

## Input Parameter

- flops - the number of flops

## Notes

To limit the chance of integer overflow when multiplying by a constant, represent the constant as a double, not an integer. Use `PetscLogFlops`(4.0n) not `PetscLogFlops`(4n)

The values are also added to the total flop count for the MPI rank that is set with `PetscLogFlops()`; hence the number of flops just on the CPU would be the value from set from `PetscLogFlops()` minus the value set from `PetscLogGpuFlops()`
