.SH NAME
|
|
MPI \- General information about Open MPI 1.2.
|
|
|
|
.SH MPI
|
|
.ft R
|
|
Open MPI is an open source implementation of MPI (message-passing
|
|
interface), the industry-standard specification for writing
|
|
message-passing programs. Message passing is a programming model that
|
|
gives the programmer explicit control over interprocess communication.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The MPI specification was developed by the MPI Forum, a group of
|
|
software developers, computer vendors, academics, and computer-science
|
|
researchers whose goal was to develop a standard for writing
|
|
message-passing programs that would be efficient, flexible, and
|
|
portable.
|
|
.sp
|
|
The outcome, known as the MPI Standard, was first published in 1993;
|
|
its most recent version (MPI-2) was published in July 1997. Open MPI
|
|
1.2 includes all MPI 1.2-compliant and MPI 2-compliant routines.

.SH MAN PAGE SYNTAX
|
|
.ft R
|
|
Man pages for Open MPI and Open MPI I/O routines are named according to C syntax, that is, they begin with the prefix "MPI_", all in uppercase, and the first letter following the "MPI_" prefix is also uppercase. The rest of the letters in the routine are all lowercase, for example, "MPI_Comm_get_attr".
|
|
|
|
.SH ENVIRONMENT
|
|
.ft R
|
|
To fine-tune your Open MPI environment, you can either use arguments to the \fImpirun\fP, \fIorterun\fP, or \fImpiexec\fP commands, or you can use MCA parameters.
|
|
.sp
|
|
For more information on arguments, see the orterun.1 man page.
|
|
.sp
|
|
For a complete listing of MCA parameters and their descriptions, issue the command \fIompi_info -h\fP or \fIompi_info -param all all\fP. This information also appears in the FAQ on the Open MPI web site at:
|
|

|
.SH ERRORS
|
|
.ft R
|
|
All MPI routines (except MPI_Wtime and MPI_Wtick) return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last
|
|
argument. Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is
|
|
called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job. 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.
|
|
.sp
|
|
For more information on Open MPI error codes, see \fImpi.h\fP in the \fIinclude\fP directory.
