DESCRIPTION

       MPI_Get_accumulate  is  a  function  used  for  one-sided  MPI communication that adds the
       contents  of  the  origin  buffer  (as   defined   by   origin_addr,   origin_count,   and
       origin_datatype)   to   the   buffer   specified   by   the   arguments  target_count  and
       target_datatype, at offset target_disp, in the target window specified by target_rank  and
       win,  using  the operation op. MPI_Get_accumulate returns in the result buffer result_addr
       the contents of the target buffer before the accumulation.

       Any of the predefined operations for MPI_Reduce, as well as MPI_NO_OP, can be used.  User-
       defined  functions  cannot  be  used.  For  example, if op is MPI_SUM, each element of the
       origin buffer is added to the corresponding element in the target,  replacing  the  former
       value in the target.

       Each  datatype  argument  must be a predefined data type or a derived data type, where all
       basic components are of the same predefined data type. Both  datatype  arguments  must  be
       constructed  from  the  same predefined data type. The operation op applies to elements of
       that predefined type. The target_datatype argument must not specify  overlapping  entries,
       and the target buffer must fit in the target window.

       A  new  predefined  operation,  MPI_REPLACE, is defined. It corresponds to the associative
       function f(a, b) =b; that is, the current value in the target memory is  replaced  by  the
       value supplied by the origin.

       A  new  predefined  operation,  MPI_NO_OP,  is  defined. It corresponds to the assiciative
       function f(a, b) = a; that is the current value in the target memory is  returned  in  the
       result buffer at the origin and no operation is performed on the target buffer.

       MPI_Rget_accumulate   is  similar  to  MPI_Get_accumulate,  except  that  it  allocates  a
       communication request object and associates it  with  the  request  handle  (the  argument
       request)  that  can  be  used  to  wait  or  test  for  completion.  The  completion of an
       MPI_Rget_accumulate operation indicates that the data is available in  the  result  buffer
       and  the  origin buffer is free to be updated. It does not indicate that the operation has
       been completed at the target window.

FORTRAN 77 NOTES

       The MPI standard prescribes portable Fortran syntax for the TARGET_DISP argument only  for
       Fortran 90.  FORTRAN 77 users may use the non-portable syntax

            INTEGER*MPI_ADDRESS_KIND TARGET_DISP

       where  MPI_ADDRESS_KIND  is  a  constant  defined  in  mpif.h  and gives the length of the
       declared integer in bytes.

NOTES

       The generic functionality of MPI_Get_accumulate might limit the performance of  fetch-and-
       increment  or  fetch-and-add calls that might be supported by special hardware operations.
       MPI_Fetch_and_op thus allows for a fast implementation of a commonly used  subset  of  the
       functionality of MPI_Get_accumulate.

       MPI_Get  is  a  special  case  of  MPI_Get_accumulate, with the operation MPI_NO_OP. Note,
       however, that MPI_Get and MPI_Get_accumulate  have  different  constraints  on  concurrent
       updates.

       It  is  the  user's responsibility to guarantee that, when using the accumulate functions,
       the target displacement argument is such that accesses to the window are properly  aligned
       according to the data type arguments in the call to the MPI_Get_accumulate function.

ERRORS

       Almost all MPI routines return an error value; C routines as the value of the function and
       Fortran routines in the last argument.

       Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler is called.  By  default,
       this  error  handler aborts the MPI job, except for I/O function errors. The error handler
       may   be   changed   with   MPI_Comm_set_errhandler;   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.
