Hi!
You are already there. the fact that MPI_Thread_init only provide
MPI_THREAD_SINGLE shows that MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE is NOT enabled in the
library binary that you're using. Although MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE is
implemented in the library source code, it is only lightly tested, so it is
not enabled by default.
To enable MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE, you need to recompile the library by first
including --enable-mpi-threads as one of the parameters when you rerun
./configure as the first step of recompiling the library.
