- MPI_COMM_WORLD
- - Contains all of the processes
- MPI_COMM_SELF
- - Contains only the calling process
KIND OF COMMUNICATOR FOR 'MPI_COMM_SPLIT_TYPE'¶
- MPI_COMM_TYPE_SHARED
- - All processes that can share memory are grouped into the same communicator.
GROUPS¶
Groups are of type MPI_Group in C, INTEGER in Fortran, and Type(MPI_Group) in Fortran08
- MPI_GROUP_EMPTY
- - A group containing no members.
RESULTS OF THE COMPARE OPERATIONS ON GROUPS AND COMMUNICATORS¶
- MPI_IDENT
- - Identical
- MPI_CONGRUENT
- - (only for MPI_COMM_COMPARE ) The groups are identical
- MPI_SIMILAR
- - Same members, but in a different order
- MPI_UNEQUAL
- - Different
COLLECTIVE OPERATIONS¶
The collective combination operations (e.g., MPI_REDUCE , MPI_ALLREDUCE , MPI_REDUCE_SCATTER , and MPI_SCAN ) take a combination operation. This operation is of type MPI_Op in C and of type INTEGER in Fortran. The predefined operations are
- MPI_MAX
- - return the maximum
- MPI_MIN
- - return the minimum
- MPI_SUM
- - return the sum
- MPI_PROD
- - return the product
- MPI_LAND
- - return the logical and
- MPI_BAND
- - return the bitwise and
- MPI_LOR
- - return the logical or
- MPI_BOR
- - return the bitwise of
- MPI_LXOR
- - return the logical exclusive or
- MPI_BXOR
- - return the bitwise exclusive or
- MPI_MINLOC
- - return the minimum and the location (actually, the value of the second element of the structure where the minimum of the first is found)
- MPI_MAXLOC
- - return the maximum and the location
- MPI_REPLACE
- - replace b with a
- MPI_NO_OP
- - perform no operation
NOTES ON COLLECTIVE OPERATIONS¶
The reduction functions ( MPI_Op ) do not return an error value. As a result, if the functions detect an error, all they can do is either call MPI_Abort or silently skip the problem. Thus, if you change the error handler from MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL to something else, for example, MPI_ERRORS_RETURN , then no error may be indicated.
The reason for this is the performance problems in ensuring that all collective routines return the same error value.
Note that not all datatypes are valid for these functions. For example, MPI_COMPLEX is not valid for MPI_MAX and MPI_MIN . In addition, the MPI 1.1 standard did not include the C types MPI_CHAR and MPI_UNSIGNED_CHAR among the lists of arithmetic types for operations like MPI_SUM . However, since the C type char is an integer type (like short ), it should have been included. The MPI Forum will probably include char and unsigned char as a clarification to MPI 1.1; until then, users are advised that MPI implementations may not accept MPI_CHAR and MPI_UNSIGNED_CHAR as valid datatypes for MPI_SUM , MPI_PROD , etc. MPICH does allow these datatypes.
