MPI_Win_attach(3)                     MPI                    MPI_Win_attach(3)




NAME

       MPI_Win_attach -  Attach memory to a dynamic window


SYNOPSIS

       int MPI_Win_attach(MPI_Win win, void *base, MPI_Aint size)


INPUT PARAMETERS

       win    - window object (handle)
       base   - initial address of memory to be attached (choice)
       size   - size of memory to be attached in bytes (non-negative 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.



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_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_ERR_ARG
              - Invalid argument.  Some argument is invalid and is not identi-
              fied by a specific error class (e.g., MPI_ERR_RANK ).
       MPI_ERR_SIZE
              -
       MPI_ERR_WIN
              - Invalid MPI window object
       MPI_ERR_OTHER
              -  Other  error;  use  MPI_Error_string  to get more information
              about this error code.
