MPI_T_cvar_get_info

Get the information about a control variable

Synopsis


int MPI_T_cvar_get_info(int cvar_index, char *name, int *name_len,
                        int *verbosity, MPI_Datatype *datatype,
                        MPI_T_enum *enumtype, char *desc, int *desc_len,
                        int *bind, int *scope)

Input Parameters

cvar_index
index of the control variable to be queried, value between $0$ and $num_cvar-1$ (integer)

Input/Output Parameters

name_len
length of the string and/or buffer for name (integer)
desc_len
length of the string and/or buffer for desc (integer)

Output Parameters

name
buffer to return the string containing the name of the control variable (string)
verbosity
verbosity level of this variable (integer)
datatype
mpi datatype of the information stored in the control variable (handle)
enumtype
optional descriptor for enumeration information (handle)
desc
buffer to return the string containing a description of the control variable (string)
bind
type of mpi object to which this variable must be bound (integer)
scope
scope of when changes to this variable are possible (integer)

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 communicators), 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 predefined 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_INDEX
Index is invalid or has been deleted.
MPI_T_ERR_NOT_INITIALIZED
The MPI tool information interface is not initialized.
MPI_ERR_OTHER
Other error; use MPI_Error_string to get more information about this error code.
