.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fI\%MPI_Alltoallw\fP is a generalized collective operation in which all
processes send data to and receive data from all other processes. It
adds flexibility to \fI\%MPI_Alltoallv\fP by allowing the user to specify the
datatype of individual data blocks (in addition to displacement and
element count). Its operation can be thought of in the following way,
where each process performs 2n (n being the number of processes in
communicator \fIcomm) independent point\-to\-point communications\fP
(including communication with itself).

.sp
Process j sends the k\-th block of its local \fIsendbuf to process\fP k,
which places the data in the j\-th block of its local \fIrecvbuf.\fP
.sp
When a pair of processes exchanges data, each may pass different element
count and datatype arguments so long as the sender specifies the same
amount of data to send (in bytes) as the receiver expects to receive.
.sp
Note that process i may send a different amount of data to process j
than it receives from process j. Also, a process may send entirely
different amounts and types of data to different processes in the
communicator.
.sp
WHEN COMMUNICATOR IS AN INTER\-COMMUNICATOR
.sp
When the communicator is an inter\-communicator, the gather operation
occurs in two phases. The data is gathered from all the members of the
first group and received by all the members of the second group. Then
the data is gathered from all the members of the second group and
received by all the members of the first. The operation exhibits a
symmetric, full\-duplex behavior.
.sp
The first group defines the root process. The root process uses MPI_ROOT
as the value of \fIroot\fP\&. All other processes in the first group use
\fBMPI_PROC_NULL\fP as the value of \fIroot\fP\&. All processes in the second group
use the rank of the root process in the first group as the value of
\fIroot\fP\&.
.sp
When the communicator is an intra\-communicator, these groups are the
same, and the operation occurs in a single phase.
.SH USE OF IN-PLACE OPTION
.sp
When the communicator is an intracommunicator, you can perform an
all\-to\-all operation in\-place (the output buffer is used as the input
buffer). Use the variable MPI_IN_PLACE as the value of \fIsendbuf\fP\&. In
this case, \fIsendcounts\fP, \fIsdispls\fP, and \fIsendtypes\fP are ignored. The
input data of each process is assumed to be in the area where that
process would receive its own contribution to the receive buffer.
.SH NOTES
.sp
The specification of counts, types, and displacements should not cause
any location to be written more than once.
.sp
All arguments on all processes are significant. The \fIcomm\fP argument, in
particular, must describe the same communicator on all processes.
.sp
The offsets of \fIsdispls\fP and \fIrdispls\fP are measured in bytes. Compare
this to \fI\%MPI_Alltoallv\fP, where these offsets are measured in units of
\fIsendtype\fP and \fIrecvtype\fP, respectively.
.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
