NAME

       MPI_Comm_set_info -  Set new values for the hints of the communicator associated with comm

SYNOPSIS

       int MPI_Comm_set_info(MPI_Comm comm, MPI_Info info)

INPUT PARAMETERS

       comm   - communicator (handle)
       info   - info object (handle)

NOTES

       The  call  is  collective  on  the group of comm. The info object may be different on each
       process, but any info entries that an implementation  requires  to  be  the  same  on  all
       processes must appear with the same value in each process info object.

INFO HINTS

       mpi_assert_no_any_tag
              -  boolean,  default  = false.  If set to true, user promises that MPI_ANY_TAG will
              not be used with the communicator. This potentially allows MPICH to treat  messages
              with  different  tags  independent  and seek to improve performance, e.g. by employ
              multiple network context.
       mpi_assert_no_any_source
              - boolean, default = false.  If set to true, user promises that MPI_ANY_SOURCE will
              not  be used with the communicator. This potentially allows MPICH to treat messages
              send to different ranks or receive from different ranks  independent  and  seek  to
              improve performance, e.g. by employ multiple network context.
       mpi_assert_exact_length
              -  boolean,  default  =  false.   If set to true, user promises that the lengths of
              messages received by the process will always equal to the size of the corresponding
              receive buffers.
       mpi_assert_allow_overtaking
              -  boolean, default = false.  If set to true, user asserts that send operations are
              not required to be matched  at  the  receiver  in  the  order  in  which  the  send
              operations were performed by the sender, and receive operations are not required to
              be matched in the order in which they were performed by the receivers.
       mpi_assert_strict_persistent_collective_ordering
              - boolean, default = false.  If set to true, then  the  implementation  may  assume
              that  all the persistent collective operations are started in the same order across
              all MPI processes in the group of the communicator. It is  required  that  if  this
              assertion  is  made on one member of the communicator s group, then it must be made
              on all members of that communicator s group with the same 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
       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  guarantee 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.
       MPI_ERR_COMM
              - Invalid communicator.  A common error is to use a null  communicator  in  a  call
              (not even allowed in MPI_Comm_rank ).
       MPI_ERR_INFO
              - Invalid Info
       MPI_ERR_OTHER
              - Other error; use MPI_Error_string to get more information about this error code.
