# [INPUT PARAMETER](#INPUT_PARAMETER)

•

**fh**: File handle (handle).

# [OUTPUT PARAMETERS](#OUTPUT_PARAMETERS)

- **buf**: Initial address of buffer (choice).
- **status**: Status object (status).
- **ierror**: Fortran only: Error status (integer).

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

MPI\_File\_read\_at\_all\_end is a split collective routine that stores the number of elements actually read from the file associated with *fh* in *status.* MPI\_File\_read\_at\_all\_end blocks until the operation initiated by MPI\_File\_read\_at\_all\_begin &lt;#mpi-file-read-at-all-begin&gt; completes. The data is taken out of those parts of the file specified by the current view. All other fields of *status* are undefined.

# [NOTES](#NOTES)

All the nonblocking collective routines for data access are “split” into two routines, each with **\_begin** or **\_end** as a suffix. These split collective routines are subject to the semantic rules described in Section 9.4.5 of the MPI-2 standard.

# [ERRORS](#ERRORS)

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

Before the error value is returned, the current MPI error handler associated with the communication object (e.g., communicator, window, file) is called. If no communication object is associated with the MPI call, then the call is considered attached to MPI\_COMM\_SELF and will call the associated MPI error handler. When MPI\_COMM\_SELF is not initialized (i.e., before MPI\_Init &lt;#mpi-init&gt;/MPI\_Init\_thread &lt;#mpi-init-thread&gt;, after MPI\_Finalize &lt;#mpi-finalize&gt;, or when using the Sessions Model exclusively) the error raises the initial error handler. The initial error handler can be changed by calling MPI\_Comm\_set\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-comm-set-errhandler&gt; on MPI\_COMM\_SELF when using the World model, or the mpi\_initial\_errhandler CLI argument to mpiexec or info key to MPI\_Comm\_spawn &lt;#mpi-comm-spawn&gt;/MPI\_Comm\_spawn\_multiple &lt;#mpi-comm-spawn-multiple&gt;. If no other appropriate error handler has been set, then the MPI\_ERRORS\_RETURN error handler is called for MPI I/O functions and the MPI\_ERRORS\_ABORT error handler is called for all other MPI functions.

Open MPI includes three predefined error handlers that can be used:

- **MPI\_ERRORS\_ARE\_FATAL** Causes the program to abort all connected MPI processes.
- **MPI\_ERRORS\_ABORT** An error handler that can be invoked on a communicator, window, file, or session. When called on a communicator, it acts as if MPI\_Abort &lt;#mpi-abort&gt; was called on that communicator. If called on a window or file, acts as if MPI\_Abort &lt;#mpi-abort&gt; was called on a communicator containing the group of processes in the corresponding window or file. If called on a session, aborts only the local process.
- **MPI\_ERRORS\_RETURN** Returns an error code to the application.

MPI applications can also implement their own error handlers by calling:

- MPI\_Comm\_create\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-comm-create-errhandler&gt; then MPI\_Comm\_set\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-comm-set-errhandler&gt;
- MPI\_File\_create\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-file-create-errhandler&gt; then MPI\_File\_set\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-file-set-errhandler&gt;
- MPI\_Session\_create\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-session-create-errhandler&gt; then MPI\_Session\_set\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-session-set-errhandler&gt; or at MPI\_Session\_init &lt;#mpi-session-init&gt;
- MPI\_Win\_create\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-win-create-errhandler&gt; then MPI\_Win\_set\_errhandler &lt;#mpi-win-set-errhandler&gt;

Note that MPI does not guarantee that an MPI program can continue past an error.

See the MPI man page &lt;#open-mpi&gt; for a full list of MPI error codes &lt;#open-mpi-errors&gt;.

See the Error Handling section of the MPI-3.1 standard for more information.
