The Great and Terrible implementation of MPI-2

MPI_Close_port

Close a port previously opened by MPI_Open_port

int MPI_Close_port(
  char *port_name
);

int MPI_Close_port(
  wchar_t *port_name
);

Parameters

port_name: [in] a port name (string)

Remarks

This function releases the network address represented by port_name.

Thread and Interrupt Safety

The user is responsible for ensuring that multiple threads do not try to update the same MPI object from different threads. This routine should not be used from within a signal handler.

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 mechanism, 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. ierris 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 INTEGERin 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 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 guarentee 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.

Example Code

The following sample code illustrates MPI_Close_port.

#include "mpi.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <windows.h> /* Sleep */

/* This test checks to make sure that two MPI_Comm_connects to two different MPI ports
* match their corresponding MPI_Comm_accepts. The root process opens two MPI ports and
* sends the first port to process 1 and the second to process 2. Then the root process
* accepts a connection from the second port followed by the first port.
* Processes 1 and 2 both connect back to the root but process 2 first sleeps for three
* seconds to give process 1 time to attempt to connect to the root. The root should wait
* until process 2 connects before accepting the connection from process 1.
