MPI_Reduce_local(3)		      MPI		   MPI_Reduce_local(3)

NAME
       MPI_Reduce_local	-  Applies a reduction operator	to local arguments.

SYNOPSIS
       int MPI_Reduce_local(const void *inbuf, void *inoutbuf, int count,
       MPI_Datatype datatype, MPI_Op op)

       int MPI_Reduce_local_c(const void *inbuf, void *inoutbuf, MPI_Count count,
       MPI_Datatype datatype, MPI_Op op)

INPUT PARAMETERS
       inbuf  -	input buffer (choice)
       count  -	number of elements in inbuf and	inoutbuf buffers (non-negative
	      integer)
       datatype
	      -	data type of elements of inbuf and inoutbuf buffers (handle)
       op     -	operation (handle)

INPUT/OUTPUT PARAMETERS
       inoutbuf
	      -	combined input and output buffer (choice)

NOTES ON COLLECTIVE OPERATIONS
       The  reduction functions	( MPI_Op ) do not return an error value.  As a
       result, if the functions	detect an error, all they  can	do  is	either
       call  MPI_Abort	or silently skip the problem.  Thus, if	you change the
       error handler from MPI_ERRORS_ARE_FATAL to something else, for example,
       MPI_ERRORS_RETURN , then	no error may be	indicated.

       The reason for this is the performance problems in  ensuring  that  all
       collective routines return the same error value.

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_er-
       rhandler	(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	 when-
       ever possible.

       MPI_SUCCESS
	      -	No error; MPI routine completed	successfully.
       MPI_ERR_BUFFER
	      -	 Invalid  buffer  pointer.  Usually a null buffer where	one is
	      not valid.
       MPI_ERR_COUNT
	      -	Invalid	count argument.	 Count arguments must be non-negative;
	      a	count of zero is often valid.
       MPI_ERR_OP
	      -	Invalid	operation.  MPI	operations (objects of type  MPI_Op  )
	      must either be one of the	predefined operations (e.g., MPI_SUM )
	      or created with MPI_Op_create .

       MPI_ERR_TYPE
	      -	Invalid	datatype argument.  Additionally, this error can occur
	      if an uncommitted	MPI_Datatype (see MPI_Type_commit ) is used in
	      a	communication call.
       MPI_ERR_OTHER
	      -	 Other	error;	use  MPI_Error_string  to get more information
	      about this error code.
