NAME
MPI_Waitany - Waits for any specified send or receive to complete.
SYNTAX
C Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
int MPI_Waitany(int count, MPI_Request *array_of_requests,
int *index, MPI_Status *status)
Fortran Syntax
INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_WAITANY(COUNT, ARRAY_OF_REQUESTS, INDEX, STATUS, IERROR)
INTEGER COUNT, ARRAY_OF_REQUESTS(*), INDEX
INTEGER STATUS(MPI_STATUS_SIZE), IERROR
C++ Syntax
#include <mpi.h>
static int Request::Waitany(int count, Request
array_of_requests[], Status& status)
static int Request::Waitany(int count, Request array_of_requests[])
INPUT PARAMETERS
count List length (integer).
array_of_requests
Array of requests (array of handles).
OUTPUT PARAMETERS
index Index of handle for operation that completed (integer). In
the range 0 to count-1. In Fortran, the range is 1 to count.
status Status object (status).
IERROR Fortran only: Error status (integer).
DESCRIPTION
A call to MPI_Waitany can be used to wait for the completion of one out
of several requests.
The array_of_requests list may contain null or inactive handles. If the
list contains no active handles (list has length zero or all entries
are null or inactive), then the call returns immediately with index =
MPI_UNDEFINED, and an empty status.
The execution of MPI_Waitany(count, array_of_requests, index, status)
has the same effect as the execution of MPI_Wait(&array_of_requests[i],
status), where i is the value returned by index (unless the value of
index is MPI_UNDEFINED). MPI_Waitany with an array containing one
active entry is equivalent to MPI_Wait.
CALL MPI_COMM_RANK(comm, rank, ierr)
IF(rank .GT 0) THEN ! client code
DO WHILE(.TRUE.)
CALL MPI_ISEND(a, n, MPI_REAL, 0, tag, comm, request, ierr)
CALL MPI_WAIT(request, status, ierr)
END DO
ELSE ! rank=0 -- server code
DO i=1, size-1
CALL MPI_IRECV(a(1,i), n, MPI_REAL, i tag,
comm, request_list(i), ierr)
END DO
DO WHILE(.TRUE.)
CALL MPI_WAITANY(size-1, request_list, index, status, ierr)
CALL DO_SERVICE(a(1,index)) ! handle one message
CALL MPI_IRECV(a(1, index), n, MPI_REAL, index, tag,
comm, request_list(index), ierr)
END DO
END IF
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
MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS, then on error the C++ exception mechanism
will be used to throw an MPI::Exception object.
Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job, except for
I/O function errors. The error handler may be changed with
MPI_Comm_set_errhandler, MPI_File_set_errhandler, or
MPI_Win_set_errhandler (depending on the type of MPI handle that gener-
ated the request); the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may
be used to cause error values to be returned. Note that MPI does not
guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
Note that per MPI-1 section 3.2.5, MPI exceptions on requests passed to
MPI_WAITANY do not set the status.MPI_ERROR field in the returned sta-
tus. The error code is passed to the back-end error handler and may be
passed back to the caller through the return value of MPI_WAITANY if
the back-end error handler returns it. The pre-defined MPI error han-
dler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN exhibits this behavior, for example.
