MPI_T_init_thread(3)                  MPI                 MPI_T_init_thread(3)




NAME

       MPI_T_init_thread -  Initialize the MPI_T execution environment


SYNOPSIS

       int MPI_T_init_thread(int required, int *provided)


INPUT PARAMETERS

       required
              - desired level of thread support (integer)



OUTPUT PARAMETERS

       provided
              - provided level of thread support (integer)



NOTES


THE VALID VALUES FOR THE LEVEL OF THREAD SUPPORT ARE

       MPI_THREAD_SINGLE
              - Only one thread will execute.
       MPI_THREAD_FUNNELED
              -  The  process  may be multi-threaded, but only the main thread
              will make MPI_T calls (all MPI_T calls are funneled to the  main
              thread).
       MPI_THREAD_SERIALIZED
              -  The  process  may be multi-threaded, and multiple threads may
              make MPI_T calls, but only one at a time: MPI_T  calls  are  not
              made concurrently from two distinct threads (all MPI_T calls are
              serialized).
       MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE
              - Multiple threads may call MPI_T, with no restrictions.



THREAD AND INTERRUPT SAFETY

       This routine is thread-safe.  This  means  that  this  routine  may  be
       safely  used by multiple threads without the need for any user-provided
       thread locks.  However, the routine is not interrupt safe.   Typically,
       this  is due to the use of memory allocation routines such as malloc or
       other non-MPICH runtime routines that  are  themselves  not  interrupt-
       safe.



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_Comm_set_errhandler (for com-
       municators),     MPI_File_set_errhandler     (for      files),      and
       MPI_Win_set_errhandler   (for   RMA   windows).    The   MPI-1  routine
       MPI_Errhandler_set may be used but its use is deprecated.   The  prede-
       fined 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; however, MPI implementations will attempt
       to continue whenever possible.

       MPI_SUCCESS
              - No error; MPI routine completed successfully.

       MPI_T_ERR_INVALID
              - Invalid use of the interface or bad parameter values(s).
       MPI_ERR_OTHER
              - Other error; use  MPI_Error_string  to  get  more  information
              about this error code.
