DESCRIPTION
Starts all communications associated with requests in array_of_re-
quests. A call to MPI_Startall(count, array_of_requests) has the same
effect as calls to MPI_Start (&array_of_requests[i]), executed for i=0
,..., count-1, in some arbitrary order.
A communication started with a call to MPI_Start or MPI_Startall is
completed by a call to MPI_Wait, MPI_Test, or one of the derived func-
tions MPI_Waitany, MPI_Testany, MPI_Waitall, MPI_Testall, MPI_Waitsome,
MPI_Testsome (these are described in Section 3.7.5 of the MPI-1 Stan-
dard, "Multiple Completions"). The request becomes inactive after suc-
cessful completion by such a call. The request is not deallocated, and
it can be activated anew by another MPI_Start or MPI_Startall call.
A persistent request is deallocated by a call to MPI_Request_free (see
Section 3.7.3 of the MPI-1 Standard, "Communication Completion").
The call to MPI_Request_free can occur at any point in the program af-
ter the persistent request was created. However, the request will be
deallocated only after it becomes inactive. Active receive requests
should not be freed. Otherwise, it will not be possible to check that
the receive has completed. It is preferable, in general, to free re-
quests when they are inactive. If this rule is followed, then the per-
sistent communication request functions will be invoked in a sequence
of the form,
Create (Start Complete)* Free
where * indicates zero or more repetitions. If the same communication
object is used in several concurrent threads, it is the user's respon-
sibility to coordinate calls so that the correct sequence is obeyed.
A send operation initiated with MPI_Start can be matched with any re-
ceive operation and, likewise, a receive operation initiated with
MPI_Start can receive messages generated by any send operation.
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. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job, except for
I/O function errors. 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.
