Notes
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
Key values are global (available for any and all communicators).
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
Default copy and delete functions are available. These are
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
MPI_COMM_NULL_COPY_FN empty copy function
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
MPI_COMM_NULL_DELETE_FN empty delete function
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
MPI_COMM_DUP_FN simple dup function
|

There are subtle differences between C and Fortran that require that the
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
copy_fn be written in the same language from which <tt>MPI_Comm_create_keyval
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
</tt>is called.
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
This should not be a problem for most users; only programmers using both
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
Fortran and C in the same program need to be sure that they follow this rule.

Return value from attribute callbacks
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
The MPI-2 versions of the attribute callbacks should return either
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
<tt>MPI_SUCCESS</tt> on success or a valid MPI error code or class on failure.
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
The MPI standard is ambiguous on this point, but as MPI-2 provides
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
the routines <tt>MPI_Add_error_class</tt> and <tt>MPI_Add_error_code</tt> that allow the
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
user to define and use MPI error codes and classes.

Thread and Interrupt Safety
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
This routine is thread-safe. This means that this routine may be
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
safely used by multiple threads without the need for any user-provided
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
thread locks. However, the routine is not interrupt safe. Typically,
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
this is due to the use of memory allocation routines such as <tt>malloc
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
</tt>or other non-MPICH runtime routines that are themselves not interrupt-safe.

Notes for Fortran
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
All MPI routines in Fortran (except for <tt>MPI_WTIME</tt> and <tt>MPI_WTICK</tt>) have
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
an additional argument <tt>ierr</tt> at the end of the argument list. <tt>ierr
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
</tt>is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
in C. In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are invoked with the
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
<tt>call</tt> statement.
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
All MPI objects (e.g., <tt>MPI_Datatype</tt>, <tt>MPI_Comm</tt>) are of type <tt>INTEGER
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
</tt>in Fortran.
|

Errors
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
All MPI routines (except <tt>MPI_Wtime</tt> and <tt>MPI_Wtick</tt>) return an error value;
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
argument. Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job. The error handler
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
may be changed with <tt>MPI_Comm_set_errhandler</tt> (for communicators),
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
<tt>MPI_File_set_errhandler</tt> (for files), and <tt>MPI_Win_set_errhandler</tt> (for
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
RMA windows). The MPI-1 routine <tt>MPI_Errhandler_set</tt> may be used but
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
its use is deprecated. The predefined error handler
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
<tt>MPI_ERRORS_RETURN</tt> may be used to cause error values to be returned.
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
Note that MPI does not guarentee that an MPI program can continue past
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
an error; however, MPI implementations will attempt to continue whenever
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
possible.
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
|
|
Packit Service |
c5cf8c |
MPI_SUCCESS No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
