static in MPI::Comm::Create_keyval(MPI::Comm::Copy_attr_function*

- comm_copy_attr_fn
- Copy callback function for comm_keyval
(function).
- comm_delete_attr_fn
- Delete callback function for comm_keyval
(function).
- extra_state
- Extra state for callback functions.
- comm_keyval
- Key value for future access (integer).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status
(integer).
This function replaces MPI_Keyval_create, the use
of which is deprecated. The C binding is identical. The Fortran binding differs
in that extra_state is an address-sized integer. Also, the copy and delete
callback functions have Fortran bindings that are consistent with address-sized
attributes.
The argument comm_copy_attr_fn may be specified as MPI_COMM_NULL_COPY_FN
or MPI_COMM_DUP_FN from C, C++, or Fortran. MPI_COMM_NULL_COPY_FN is a function
that does nothing more than returning flag = 0 and MPI_SUCCESS. MPI_COMM_DUP_FN
is a simple-minded copy function that sets flag = 1, returns the value of
attribute_val_in in attribute_val_out, and returns MPI_SUCCESS. These replace
the MPI-1 predefined callbacks MPI_NULL_COPY_FN and MPI_DUP_FN, the use
of which is deprecated.
The C callback functions are:
typedef int MPI_Comm_copy_attr_function(MPI_Comm oldcomm, int comm_keyval,
void *extra_state, void *attribute_val_in,
void *attribute_val_out, int *flag);
and
typedef int MPI_Comm_delete_attr_function(MPI_Comm comm, int comm_keyval,
void *attribute_val, void *extra_state);
which are the same as the MPI-1.1 calls but with a new name. The old names
are deprecated.
The Fortran callback functions are:
SUBROUTINE COMM_COPY_ATTR_FN(OLDCOMM, COMM_KEYVAL, EXTRA_STATE,
ATTRIBUTE_VAL_IN, ATTRIBUTE_VAL_OUT, FLAG, IERROR)
INTEGER OLDCOMM, COMM_KEYVAL, IERROR
INTEGER(KIND=MPI_ADDRESS_KIND) EXTRA_STATE, ATTRIBUTE_VAL_IN,
ATTRIBUTE_VAL_OUT
LOGICAL FLAG
and
SUBROUTINE COMM_DELETE_ATTR_FN(COMM, COMM_KEYVAL, ATTRIBUTE_VAL, EXTRA_STATE,
IERROR)
INTEGER COMM, COMM_KEYVAL, IERROR
INTEGER(KIND=MPI_ADDRESS_KIND) ATTRIBUTE_VAL, EXTRA_STATE
The C++ callbacks are:
typedef int MPI::Comm::Copy_attr_function(const MPI::Comm& oldcomm,
int comm_keyval, void* extra_state, void* attribute_val_in,
void* attribute_val_out, bool& flag);
and
typedef int MPI::Comm::Delete_attr_function(MPI::Comm& comm,
int comm_keyval, void* attribute_val, void* extra_state);
The MPI standard prescribes portable Fortran syntax for
the EXTRA_STATE argument only for Fortran 90. FORTRAN 77 users may use the
non-portable syntax
INTEGER*MPI_ADDRESS_KIND EXTRA_STATE
where MPI_ADDRESS_KIND is a constant defined in mpif.h and gives the length
of the declared integer in bytes.
Almost all MPI routines return
an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines
in the last argument. C++ functions 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; 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.
See the MPI man page for a full list of MPI error
codes.
