#### 7.2.13 `_gfortran_caf_sendget` — Sending data between remote images

Description:
  Called to send a scalar, an array section or a whole array from a remote image identified by the src_image_index to a remote image identified by the dst_image_index.
Syntax:
  `void _gfortran_caf_sendget (caf_token_t dst_token, size_t dst_offset, int dst_image_index, gfc_descriptor_t *dest, caf_vector_t *dst_vector, caf_token_t src_token, size_t src_offset, int src_image_index, gfc_descriptor_t *src, caf_vector_t *src_vector, int dst_kind, int src_kind, bool may_require_tmp, int *stat)`
Arguments:

  dst_token | intent(in) An opaque pointer identifying the destination coarray.
  dst_offset | intent(in) By which amount of bytes the actual data is shifted compared to the base address of the destination coarray.
  dst_image_index | intent(in) The ID of the destination remote image; must be a positive number.
  dest | intent(in) Array descriptor for the destination remote image for the bounds and the size. The `base_addr` shall not be accessed.
  dst_vector | intent(int) If not NULL, it contains the vector subscript of the destination array; the values are relative to the dimension triplet of the dest argument.
  src_token | intent(in) An opaque pointer identifying the source coarray.
  src_offset | intent(in) By which amount of bytes the actual data is shifted compared to the base address of the source coarray.
  src_image_index | intent(in) The ID of the source remote image; must be a positive number.
  src | intent(in) Array descriptor of the local array to be transferred to the remote image.
  src_vector | intent(in) Array descriptor of the local array to be transferred to the remote image
  dst_kind | intent(in) Kind of the destination argument
  src_kind | intent(in) Kind of the source argument
  may_require_tmp | intent(in) The variable is `false` when it is known at compile time that the dest and src either cannot overlap or overlap (fully or partially) such that walking src and dest in element wise element order (honoring the stride value) will not lead to wrong results. Otherwise, the value is `true`.
  stat | intent(out) when non-NULL give the result of the operation, i.e., zero on success and non-zero on error. When NULL and an error occurs, then an error message is printed and the program is terminated.

NOTES
  It is permitted to have the same image index for both src_image_index and dst_image_index; the memory of the send-to and the send-from might (partially) overlap in that case. The implementation has to take care that it handles this case, e.g. using `memmove` which handles (partially) overlapping memory. If may_require_tmp is true, the library might additionally create a temporary variable, unless additional checks show that this is not required (e.g. because walking backward is possible or because both arrays are contiguous and `memmove` takes care of overlap issues).

  Note that the assignment of a scalar to an array is permitted. In addition, the library has to handle numeric-type conversion and for strings, padding and different character kinds.
