.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.ft R
|
|
This call creates an intercommunicator. It is collective over the union of the local and remote groups. Processes should provide identical local_comm and local_leader arguments within each group. Wildcards are not permitted for remote_leader, local_leader, and tag.
|
|
.sp
|
|
This call uses point-to-point communication with communicator peer_comm,
|
|
and with tag tag between the leaders. Thus, care must be taken that there be no pending communication on peer_comm that could interfere with this communication.
|
|
|
|
If multiple MPI_Intercomm_creates are being made, they should use different tags (more precisely, they should ensure that the local and remote leaders are using different tags for each MPI_intercomm_create).
|
|
|
|
.SH NOTES
|
|
We recommend using a dedicated peer communicator, such as a duplicate of MPI_COMM_WORLD, to avoid trouble with peer communicators.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The MPI 1.1 Standard contains two mutually exclusive comments on the
|
|
input intracommunicators. One says that their repective groups must be
|
|
disjoint; the other that the leaders can be the same process. After
|
|
some discussion by the MPI Forum, it has been decided that the groups must
|
|
be disjoint. Note that the
|
|
.B reason
|
|
given for this in the standard is
|
|
.B not
|
|
the reason for this choice; rather, the
|
|
.B other
|
|
operations on
|
|
intercommunicators (like
|
|
.I MPI_Intercomm_merge
|
|
) do not make sense if the
|
|
groups are not disjoint.
|
|
|
|
.SH 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++ 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.
|
|
.sp
|
|
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.
