17.2.150. MPI_File_write_all_end

MPI_File_write_all_end — Writes a file starting at the locations specified by individual file pointers; ending part of a split collective routine (blocking).

17.2.150.1. SYNTAX

17.2.150.1.1. C Syntax

#include <mpi.h>

int MPI_File_write_all_end(MPI_File fh, const void *buf, MPI_Status *status)

17.2.150.1.2. Fortran Syntax

USE MPI
! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'
MPI_FILE_WRITE_ALL_END(FH, BUF, STATUS, IERROR)
     <type>  BUF(*)
     INTEGER FH, STATUS, IERROR

17.2.150.1.3. Fortran 2008 Syntax

USE mpi_f08
MPI_File_write_all_end(fh, buf, status, ierror)
     TYPE(MPI_File), INTENT(IN) :: fh
     TYPE(*), DIMENSION(..), INTENT(IN), ASYNCHRONOUS :: buf
     TYPE(MPI_Status) :: status
     INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

17.2.150.2. INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETER

  • fh: File handle (handle).

17.2.150.3. INPUT PARAMETER

  • buf: Initial address of buffer (choice).

17.2.150.4. OUTPUT PARAMETERS

  • status: Status object (status).

  • ierror: Fortran only: Error status (integer).

17.2.150.5. DESCRIPTION

MPI_File_write_all_end is the ending part of a split collective routine that stores the number of elements actually written into the file associated with fh from the user’s buffer buf in status. MPI_File_write_all_end blocks until the operation initiated by MPI_File_write_all_begin completes. The data is written into those parts of the file specified by the current view. All other fields of status are undefined.

17.2.150.6. NOTES

All the nonblocking collective routines for data access are “split” into two routines, each with _begin or _end as a suffix. These split collective routines are subject to the semantic rules described in Section 9.4.5 of the MPI-2 standard.

17.2.150.7. ERRORS

Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the return result of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument.

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 MPI_Init/MPI_Init_thread, after MPI_Finalize, or when using the Sessions Model exclusively) the error raises the initial error handler. The initial error handler can be changed by calling MPI_Comm_set_errhandler on MPI_COMM_SELF when using the World model, or the mpi_initial_errhandler CLI argument to mpiexec or info key to MPI_Comm_spawn/MPI_Comm_spawn_multiple. 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.

Open MPI includes three predefined error handlers that can be used:

  • MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL Causes the program to abort all connected MPI processes.

  • MPI_ERRORS_ABORT An error handler that can be invoked on a communicator, window, file, or session. When called on a communicator, it acts as if MPI_Abort was called on that communicator. If called on a window or file, acts as if MPI_Abort 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.

  • MPI_ERRORS_RETURN Returns an error code to the application.

MPI applications can also implement their own error handlers by calling:

Note that MPI does not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
