NAME

6       MPI_Win_complete -  Completes an RMA access epoch
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <mpi.h>
10       int MPI_Win_complete(MPI_Win win)
11

INPUT PARAMETER

13       win -  window object (handle)
14
15

NOTES

17       Completes   an   RMA   access  epoch  on  win  started  by  a  call  to
18       MPI_WIN_START. All RMA communication calls issued on  win  during  this
19       epoch will have completed at the origin when the call returns.
20
21       MPI_WIN_COMPLETE enforces completion of preceding RMA calls at the ori‐
22       gin, but not at the target. A put or accumulate call may not have  com‐
23       pleted at the target when it has completed at the origin.

NOTES FOR FORTRAN

27       All  MPI routines in Fortran (except for MPI_WTIME and MPI_WTICK ) have
28       an additional argument ierr at the end of the argument list.   ierr  is
29       an  integer and has the same meaning as the return value of the routine
30       in C.  In Fortran, MPI routines are subroutines, and are  invoked  with
31       the call statement.
32
33       All MPI objects (e.g., MPI_Datatype , MPI_Comm ) are of type INTEGER in
34       Fortran.
35

USAGE WITH IMPI EXTENSIONS

37       The IMPI standard only supports MPI-1 functions.  Hence, this  function
38       is currently not designed to operate within an IMPI job.

ERRORS

42       If an error occurs in an MPI function, the current MPI error handler is
43       called to handle it.  By default, this error  handler  aborts  the  MPI
44       job.   The  error  handler may be changed with MPI_Errhandler_set ; the
45       predefined error handler MPI_ERRORS_RETURN may be used to  cause  error
46       values  to  be  returned  (in C and Fortran; this error handler is less
47       useful in with the C++ MPI  bindings.   The  predefined  error  handler
48       MPI::ERRORS_THROW_EXCEPTIONS  should  be used in C++ if the error value
49       needs to be recovered).  Note that MPI does not guarantee that  an  MPI
50       program can continue past an error.
51
52       All  MPI  routines  (except  MPI_Wtime  and MPI_Wtick ) return an error
53       value; C routines as the value of the function and Fortran routines  in
54       the  last  argument.  The C++ bindings for MPI do not return error val‐
55       ues; instead, error values are communicated by throwing  exceptions  of
56       type  MPI::Exception  (but not by default).  Exceptions are only thrown
57       if the error value is not MPI::SUCCESS .
58
59
60       Note that if the MPI::ERRORS_RETURN handler is set in  C++,  while  MPI
61       functions  will  return  upon an error, there will be no way to recover
62       what the actual error value was.
63       MPI_SUCCESS
64              - No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
65       MPI_ERR_WIN
66              - Invalid window.  A common error is to use a null window  in  a
67              call.
68       MPI_ERR_OTHER
69              -  Other  error;  use  MPI_Error_string  to get more information
70              about this error code.
71       MPI_ERR_EPOCH
72              - This error indicates than an operation has been attempted on a
73              "closed"  window.  Certain one-sided operations can only be per‐
74              formed  on  windows  whose   epoch   has   been   started   with
75              MPI_Win_start.

MORE INFORMATION

85       For more information, please see the official MPI Forum web site, which
86       contains the text of both the MPI-1 and MPI-2 standards.   These  docu‐
87       ments  contain  detailed  information  about each MPI function (most of
88       which is not duplicated in these man pages).
