MPI_Comm_set_errhandler(3) MPI MPI_Comm_set_errhandler(3) NAME MPI_Comm_set_errhandler - Set the error handler for a communicator SYNOPSIS int MPI_Comm_set_errhandler(MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Errhandler errhandler) INPUT PARAMETERS comm - communicator (handle) errhandler - new error handler for communicator (handle) THREAD AND INTERRUPT SAFETY This routine is thread and interrupt safe only if no MPI routine that up- dates or frees the same MPI object may be called concurrently with this routine. The MPI standard defined a thread-safe interface but this does not mean that all routines may be called without any thread locks. For example, two threads must not attempt to change the contents of the same MPI_Info object concurrently. The user is responsible in this case for using some mecha- nism, such as thread locks, to ensure that only one thread at a time makes use of this routine. 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 inte- ger 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 state- ment. 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 ar- gument. Before the value is returned, the current MPI error handler is called. By default, this error handler aborts the MPI job. The error han- dler 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_ERR_COMM - Invalid communicator. A common error is to use a null communica- tor in a call (not even allowed in MPI_Comm_rank ). MPI_ERR_OTHER - Other error; use MPI_Error_string to get more information about this error code. SEE ALSO MPI_Comm_get_errhandler, MPI_Comm_call_errhandler 4/10/2026 MPI_Comm_set_errhandler(3)
