.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
Waits until at least one of the operations associated with active
handles in the list have completed. Returns in outcount the number of
requests from the list array_of_requests that have completed. Returns in
the first outcount locations of the array array_of_indices the indices
of these operations (index within the array array_of_requests; the array
is indexed from 0 in C and from 1 in Fortran). Returns in the first
outcount locations of the array array_of_status the status for these
completed operations. If a request that completed was allocated by a
nonblocking communication call, then it is deallocated, and the
associated handle is set to MPI_REQUEST_NULL.
.sp
If the list contains no active handles, then the call returns
immediately with outcount = MPI_UNDEFINED.
.sp
When one or more of the communications completed by \fI\%MPI_Waitsome\fP fails,
then it is desirable to return specific information on each
communication. The arguments outcount, array_of_indices, and
array_of_statuses will be adjusted to indicate completion of all
communications that have succeeded or failed. The call will return the
error code MPI_ERR_IN_STATUS and the error field of each status returned
will be set to indicate success or to indicate the specific error that
occurred. The call will return MPI_SUCCESS if no request resulted in an
error, and will return another error code if it failed for other reasons
(such as invalid arguments). In such cases, it will not update the error
fields of the statuses.
.sp
If your application does not need to examine the \fIarray_of_statuses\fP
field, you can save resources by using the predefined constant
MPI_STATUSES_IGNORE can be used as a special value for the
\fIarray_of_statuses\fP argument.

.SH NOTES
.sp
The array of indices are in the range 0 to incount\-1 for C and in the
range 1 to incount for Fortran.
.SH ERRORS
.sp
Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the return result
of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument.
.sp
Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler associated
with the communication object (e.g., communicator, window, file) is called.
If no communication object is associated with the MPI call, then the call is
considered attached to MPI_COMM_SELF and will call the associated MPI error
handler. When MPI_COMM_SELF is not initialized (i.e., before
\fI\%MPI_Init\fP/\fI\%MPI_Init_thread\fP, after \fI\%MPI_Finalize\fP, or when using the Sessions
Model exclusively) the error raises the initial error handler. The initial
error handler can be changed by calling \fI\%MPI_Comm_set_errhandler\fP on
MPI_COMM_SELF when using the World model, or the mpi_initial_errhandler CLI
argument to mpiexec or info key to \fI\%MPI_Comm_spawn\fP/\fI\%MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple\fP\&.
If no other appropriate error handler has been set, then the MPI_ERRORS_RETURN
error handler is called for MPI I/O functions and the MPI_ERRORS_ABORT error
handler is called for all other MPI functions.
.sp
Open MPI includes three predefined error handlers that can be used:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fBMPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL\fP
Causes the program to abort all connected MPI processes.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBMPI_ERRORS_ABORT\fP
An error handler that can be invoked on a communicator,
window, file, or session. When called on a communicator, it
acts as if \fI\%MPI_Abort\fP was called on that communicator. If
called on a window or file, acts as if \fI\%MPI_Abort\fP was called
on a communicator containing the group of processes in the
corresponding window or file. If called on a session,
aborts only the local process.
.IP \(bu 2
\fBMPI_ERRORS_RETURN\fP
Returns an error code to the application.
.UNINDENT
.sp
MPI applications can also implement their own error handlers by calling:
.INDENT 0.0
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%MPI_Comm_create_errhandler\fP then \fI\%MPI_Comm_set_errhandler\fP
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%MPI_File_create_errhandler\fP then \fI\%MPI_File_set_errhandler\fP
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%MPI_Session_create_errhandler\fP then \fI\%MPI_Session_set_errhandler\fP or at \fI\%MPI_Session_init\fP
.IP \(bu 2
\fI\%MPI_Win_create_errhandler\fP then \fI\%MPI_Win_set_errhandler\fP
.UNINDENT
.sp
Note that MPI does not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past
an error.
.sp
See the \fI\%MPI man page\fP for a full list of \fI\%MPI error codes\fP\&.
.sp
See the Error Handling section of the MPI\-3.1 standard for
more information.
.sp
For each invocation of \fI\%MPI_Waitsome\fP, if one or more requests
generate an MPI error, only the \fIfirst\fP MPI request that caused an
error will be passed to its corresponding error handler. No other
error handlers will be invoked (even if multiple requests generated
errors). However, \fIall\fP requests that generate an error will have a
relevant error code set in the corresponding \fBstatus.MPI_ERROR\fP
field (unless \fBMPI_STATUSES_IGNORE\fP was used).
.sp
If the invoked error handler allows \fI\%MPI_Waitsome\fP to return to
the caller, the value \fBMPI_ERR_IN_STATUS\fP will be returned in the C
and Fortran bindings.
