.SH NOTES
|
|
The
|
|
.I assert
|
|
argument is used to indicate special conditions for the
|
|
fence that an implementation may use to optimize the
|
|
.I MPI_Win_post
|
|
operation. The value zero is always correct. Other assertion values
|
|
may be or'ed together. Assertions that are valid for
|
|
.I MPI_Win_post
|
|
are:
|
|
|
|
.PD 0
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B MPI_MODE_NOCHECK
|
|
- the matching calls to
|
|
.I MPI_WIN_START
|
|
have not yet
|
|
occurred on any origin processes when the call to
|
|
.I MPI_WIN_POST
|
|
is made.
|
|
The nocheck option can be specified by a post call if and only if it is
|
|
specified by each matching start call.
|
|
.PD 1
|
|
.PD 0
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B MPI_MODE_NOSTORE
|
|
- the local window was not updated by local stores (or
|
|
local get or receive calls) since last synchronization. This may avoid
|
|
the need for cache synchronization at the post call.
|
|
.PD 1
|
|
.PD 0
|
|
.TP
|
|
.B MPI_MODE_NOPUT
|
|
- the local window will not be updated by put or accumulate
|
|
calls after the post call, until the ensuing (wait) synchronization. This
|
|
may avoid the need for cache synchronization at the wait call.

.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
|
|
guarentee that an MPI program can continue past
|
|
an error; however, MPI implementations will attempt to continue whenever
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|

|
|
.TP
|
|
.B MPI_SUCCESS
|
|
- No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
