MPI_File_iread(3)                  Open MPI                  MPI_File_iread(3)

NAME
       MPI_File_iread - Reads a file starting at the location specified by the
       individual file pointer (nonblocking, noncollective).

SYNTAX
C Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       int MPI_File_iread(MPI_File fh, void  *buf, int  count,
            MPI_Datatype  datatype, MPI_Request  *request)

Fortran Syntax
       USE MPI
       ! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
       MPI_FILE_IREAD(FH, BUF, COUNT, DATATYPE, REQUEST, IERROR)
            <type>    BUF(*)
            INTEGER   FH, COUNT, DATATYPE, REQUEST, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax
       USE mpi_f08
       MPI_File_iread(fh, buf, count, datatype, request, ierror)
            TYPE(MPI_File), INTENT(IN) :: fh
            TYPE(*), DIMENSION(..), ASYNCHRONOUS :: buf
            INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: count
            TYPE(MPI_Datatype), INTENT(IN) :: datatype
            TYPE(MPI_Request), INTENT(OUT) :: request
            INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

C++ Syntax
       #include <mpi.h>
       MPI::Request MPI::File::Iread(void* buf, int count,
            const MPI::Datatype& datatype)

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER
       fh        File handle (handle).

INPUT PARAMETERS
       count     Number of elements in the buffer (integer).

       datatype  Data type of each buffer element (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       buf       Initial address of buffer (choice).

       request   Request object (handle).

       IERROR    Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION
       MPI_File_iread is a nonblocking version of MPI_File_read.  It  attempts
       to read from the file associated with fh at the current individual file
       pointer position maintained by the system in which a  total  number  of
       count  data items having datatype type  are read into the user's buffer
       buf.  The data is taken out of those parts of the file specified by the
       current  view.  MPI_File_iread  stores the number of data-type elements
       actually read in status.  All other fields of status are undefined.  It
       is  erroneous  to  call  this  function if MPI_MODE_SEQUENTIAL mode was
       specified when the file was opened.

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++ func-
       tions 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.

       Before the error value is returned, the current MPI  error  handler  is
       called.  For  MPI I/O function errors, the default error handler is set
       to  MPI_ERRORS_RETURN.  The  error  handler   may   be   changed   with
       MPI_File_set_errhandler;   the   predefined   error   handler   MPI_ER-
       RORS_ARE_FATAL may be used to make I/O errors fatal. Note that MPI does
       not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
