- My original patch stands: MPI_FINALIZE directly invokes the
attribute callbacks on MPI_COMM_SELF
- We added some user-level checks to ensure that they don't call
MPI_FINALIZE twice (this isn't really required, but it will prevent
whacky segv's -- they'll at least get a nice error message)
- Removed the attribute callbacks on MPI_COMM_SELF from
ompi_mpi_comm_finalize (i.e., we just moved them from
ompi_mpi_comm_finalize to ompi_mpi_finalize -- we just moved this
process up earlier in the MPI_FINALIZE sequence of events)
- Because there were so many conversations about this, here's the
rationale:
- MPI-2:4.8 says that we have to MPI_COMM_FREE MPI_COMM_SELF so that
the attribute callbacks are invoked.
- After considerable discussion, we came to the conclusion that
FREE'ing COMM_SELF is not the issue -- calling the callbacks is
the issue.
- So it is sufficent for MPI_FINALIZE to directly invoke these
attribute callbacks
- The attribute callbacks are *not* invoked on other communicators
because said communicators are not MPI_COMM_FREE'ed
