MPI_Group_intersection

Produces a group as the intersection of two existing groups

Synopsis

#include "mpi.h"
int MPI_Group_intersection ( MPI_Group group1, MPI_Group group2, 
        MPI_Group *group_out )

Input Parameters

group1 first group (handle)
group2 second group (handle)

Output Parameter

newgroup
intersection group (handle)

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_Errhandler_set; 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.

MPI_SUCCESS
No error; MPI routine completed successfully.
MPI_ERR_GROUP
Null group passed to function.
MPI_ERR_INTERN
This error is returned when some part of the MPICH implementation is unable to acquire memory.
