.SH THREAD AND INTERRUPT SAFETY
|
|
|
|
This routine is thread-safe. This means that this routine may be
|
|
safely used by multiple threads without the need for any user-provided
|
|
thread locks. However, the routine is not interrupt safe. Typically,
|
|
this is due to the use of memory allocation routines such as
|
|
.I malloc
|
|
or other non-MPICH runtime routines that are themselves not interrupt-safe.
|
|
|
|
.SH NOTES FOR FORTRAN
|
|
All MPI routines in Fortran (except for
|
|
.I MPI_WTIME
|
|
and
|
|
.I MPI_WTICK
|
|
) have
|
|
an additional argument
|
|
.I ierr
|
|
at the end of the argument list.
|
|
.I ierr
|
|
is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine
|
|
in C. In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are invoked with the
|
|
.I call
|
|
statement.
|
|
|
|
All MPI objects (e.g.,
|
|
.I MPI_Datatype
|
|
,
|
|
.I MPI_Comm
|
|
) are of type
|
|
.I INTEGER
|
|
in Fortran.
|
|
|
|
.SH ERRORS
|
|
|
|
All MPI routines (except
|
|
.I MPI_Wtime
|
|
and
|
|
.I MPI_Wtick
|
|
) return an error value;
|
|
C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last
|
|
argument. Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
|
|
called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job. The error handler
|
|
may be changed with
|
|
.I MPI_Comm_set_errhandler
|
|
(for communicators),
|
|
.I MPI_File_set_errhandler
|
|
(for files), and
|
|
.I MPI_Win_set_errhandler
|
|
(for
|
|
RMA windows). The MPI-1 routine
|
|
.I MPI_Errhandler_set
|
|
may be used but
|
|
its use is deprecated. The predefined error handler
|
|
.I MPI_ERRORS_RETURN
|
|
may be used to cause error values to be returned.
|
|
Note that MPI does
|
|
.B not
|
|
guarantee that an MPI program can continue past
|
|
an error; however, MPI implementations will attempt to continue whenever
|
|
possible.

.B MPI_ERR_ARG
|
|
- Invalid argument. Some argument is invalid and is not
|
|
identified by a specific error class (e.g.,
|
|
.I MPI_ERR_RANK
|
|
).

one is not valid.

.B MPI_ERR_COMM

communicator in a call (not even allowed in

.I MPI_Comm_rank
|
|
).

non-negative; a count of zero is often valid.

.B MPI_ERR_TYPE

- Invalid datatype argument. Additionally, this error can

occur if an uncommitted MPI_Datatype (see

|
.I MPI_Type_commit
|
|
) is used
|
|
in a communication call.
