MPI_Comm_accept

:ref:`MPI_Comm_accept` |mdash| Establishes communication with a client.

SYNTAX

C Syntax

#include <mpi.h>

int MPI_Comm_accept(const char *port_name, MPI_Info info, int root, MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Comm *newcomm)

Fortran Syntax

USE MPI
! or the older form: INCLUDE 'mpif.h'

MPI_COMM_ACCEPT(PORT_NAME, INFO, ROOT, COMM, NEWCOMM, IERROR)
    CHARACTER*(*)   PORT_NAME
    INTEGER     INFO, ROOT, COMM, NEWCOMM, IERROR

Fortran 2008 Syntax

USE mpi_f08

MPI_Comm_accept(port_name, info, root, comm, newcomm, ierror)
    CHARACTER(LEN=*), INTENT(IN) :: port_name
    TYPE(MPI_Info), INTENT(IN) :: info
    INTEGER, INTENT(IN) :: root
    TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(IN) :: comm
    TYPE(MPI_Comm), INTENT(OUT) :: newcomm
    INTEGER, OPTIONAL, INTENT(OUT) :: ierror

INPUT PARAMETERS

  • port_name : Port name (string, used only on root).
  • info : Options given by root for the accept (handle, used only on
    root). No options currently supported.
  • root : Rank in comm of root node (integer).
  • comm : Intracommunicator over which call is collective (handle).

OUTPUT PARAMETERS

  • newcomm : Intercommunicator with client as remote group (handle)
  • ierror : Fortran only: Error status (integer).

DESCRIPTION

:ref:`MPI_Comm_accept` establishes communication with a client. It is collective over the calling communicator. It returns an intercommunicator that allows communication with the client, after the client has connected with the :ref:`MPI_Comm_accept` function using the :ref:`MPI_Comm_connect` function. The port_name must have been established through a call to :ref:`MPI_Open_port` on the root.
