NAME
MPI_Query_thread - Returns the current level of thread support
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Query_thread(int *provided)
Fortran Syntax
INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_QUERY_THREAD(PROVIDED, IERROR)
INTEGER PROVIDED, IERROR
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI::Query_thread()
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
provided C/Fortran only: Level of thread support (integer).
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
This routine returns in provided the current level of thread support.
If MPI was initialized by a call to MPI_Init_thread, provided will have
the same value as was returned by that function.
The possible values of provided are as follows:
MPI_THREAD_SINGLE Only one thread may execute.
MPI_THREAD_FUNNELED If the process is multithreaded, only the
thread that called MPI_Init[_thread] may make
MPI calls.
MPI_THREAD_SERIALIZED If the process is multithreaded, only one
thread may make MPI library calls at one time.
MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE If the process is multithreaded, multiple
threads may call MPI at once with no restric-
tions.
NOTES
In Open MPI, provided is always MPI_THREAD_SINGLE, unless the program
has been linked with the multithreaded library, in which case provided
is MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE.
ERRORS
Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value
of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument. C++ func-
tions do not return errors. If the default error handler is set to
not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
See the MPI man page for a full list of MPI error codes.
