MPI_Init_thread(3)		      MPI		    MPI_Init_thread(3)

NAME
       MPI_Init_thread -  Initialize the MPI execution environment

SYNOPSIS
       int MPI_Init_thread( int	*argc, char ***argv, int required, int *provided )

INPUT PARAMETERS
       argc   -	Pointer	to the number of arguments
       argv   -	Pointer	to the argument	vector
       required
	      -	Level of desired thread	support

OUTPUT PARAMETER
       provided
	      -	Level of provided thread support

COMMAND	LINE ARGUMENTS
       MPI specifies no	command-line arguments but does	allow an MPI implemen-
       tation to make use of them.  See	MPI_INIT for a description of the com-
       mand line arguments supported by	MPI_INIT and MPI_INIT_THREAD .

NOTES
       The valid values	for the	level of thread	support	are:
       MPI_THREAD_SINGLE
	      -	Only one thread	will execute.
       MPI_THREAD_FUNNELED
	      -	 The  process  may be multi-threaded, but only the main	thread
	      will make	MPI calls (all MPI calls  are  funneled	 to  the  main
	      thread).
       MPI_THREAD_SERIALIZED
	      -	 The  process  may be multi-threaded, and multiple threads may
	      make MPI calls, but only one at a	time: MPI calls	are  not  made
	      concurrently  from two distinct threads (all MPI calls are seri-
	      alized).
       MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE
	      -	Multiple threads may call MPI, with no restrictions.

NOTES FOR FORTRAN
       Note that the Fortran binding for this routine does not have  the  argc
       and argv	arguments. ( MPI_INIT_THREAD(required, provided, ierror) )

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 guarentee	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_OTHER
	      -	Other error; use  MPI_Error_string  to	get  more  information
	      about this error code.
