MPI_Testall(3)

NAME
MPI_Testall - Tests for the completion of all previously initiated communications

SYNOPSIS
#include "mpi.h"
int MPI_Testall(
        int count,
        MPI_Request array_of_requests[],
        int *flag,
        MPI_Status array_of_statuses[] )

INPUT PARAMETERS
count
    - lists length (integer)
array_of_requests
    - array of requests (array of handles)

OUTPUT PARAMETERS
flag
    - (logical)
array_of_statuses
    - array of status objects (array of Status). May be MPI_STATUSES_NULL .

NOTES
flag is true only if all requests have completed. Otherwise, flag is false and neither the array_of_requests nor the array_of_statuses is modified.

NOTE ON STATUS FOR SEND OPERATIONS
For send operations, the only use of status is for MPI_Test_cancelled or in the case that there is an error, in which case the MPI_ERROR field of status will be set.

NOTES FOR FORTRAN
All MPI routines in Fortran (except for MPI_WTIME and MPI_WTICK ) have an additional argument ierr at the end of the argument list. ierr is an integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine in C. In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are invoked with the call statement. All MPI objects (e.g., MPI_Datatype , MPI_Comm ) are of type INTEGER in Fortran.

ERRORS
All MPI routines (except MPI_Wtime and MPI_Wtick ) return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines in the last argument. Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job. The error handler may be changed with MPI_Errhandler_set ; the predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to cause error values to be returned. Note that MPI does not guarentee that an MPI program can continue past an error.
MPI_SUCCESS
    - No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
MPI_ERR_IN_STATUS
    - The actual error value is in the MPI_Status argument. This error class is returned only from the multiple-completion routines ( MPI_Testall , MPI_Testany , MPI_Testsome , MPI_Waitall , MPI_Waitany , and MPI_Waitsome ). The field MPI_ERROR in the status argument contains the error value or MPI_SUCCESS (no error and complete) or MPI_ERR_PENDING to indicate that the request has not completed. The MPI Standard does not specify what the result of the multiple completion routines is when an error occurs. For example, in an MPI_WAITALL , does the routine wait for all requests to either fail or complete, or does it return immediately (with the MPI definition of immediately, which means independent of actions of other MPI processes)? MPICH has chosen to make the return immediate (alternately, local in MPI terms), and to use the error class MPI_ERR_PENDING (introduced in MPI 1.1) to indicate which requests have not completed. In most cases, only one request with an error will be detected in each call to an MPI routine that tests multiple requests. The requests that have not been processed (because an error occured in one of the requests) will have their MPI_ERROR field marked with MPI_ERR_PENDING .
