MPI_Win_create_dynamic - One-sided MPI call that returns a window
object for RMA operations.
#include <mpi.h>
MPI_Win_create_dynamic(MPI_Info info, MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Win *win)
INCLUDE ’mpif.h’
MPI_WIN_CREATE_DYNAMIC(INFO, COMM, WIN, IERROR)
INTEGER INFO, COMM, WIN, IERROR
- info
- Info argument (handle).
- comm
- Communicator (handle).
- win
- Window object returned by the call (handle).
- IERROR
- Fortran only: Error status (integer).
MPI_Win_create_dynamic
is a one-sided MPI communication collective call executed by all processes
in the group of comm. It returns a window object without memory attached
that can be used by these processes to perform RMA operations.
The following
info keys are supported:
- no_locks
- If set to true, then the implementation
may assume that the local window is never locked (by a call to MPI_Win_lock
or MPI_Win_lock_all). Setting this value if only active synchronization
may allow the implementation to enable certain optimizations.
- accumulate_ordering
- By default, accumulate operations from one initiator to one target on the
same window are strictly ordered. If the info key accumulate_ordering is
set to none, no ordering of accumulate operations guaranteed. They key
can also be a comma-separated list of required orderings consisting of rar,
war, raw, and waw for read-after-read, write-after-read, read-after-write, and
write-after-write, respectively. Looser ordering constraints are likely to
result in improved performance.
- accumulate_ops
- If set to same_op, the implementation
will assume that all concurrent accumulate calls to the same target address
will use the same operation. If set to same_op_no_op, then the implementation
will assume that all concurrent accumulate calls to the same target address
will use the same operation or MPI_NO_OP. The default is same_op_no_op.
Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the
value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument.
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.
