MPI_Irecv 中的致命错误：正在中止作业

Question

The following sequence of errors is received when I try to run a problem on four processors. The MPI command I use is mpirun -np 4

I apologize for posting the error message as is (Primarily due a lack of knowledge on deciphering the information given). Would appreciate your input on the following:

1. What does the error message mean? At what point does one receive it? Is it because of the system memory (hardware) or is it due to a communication error (something related to MPI_Isend/Irecv?, ie Software issue).

2. Finally, how do I fix this?

Thanks!

ERROR message received follows below:: - - * PLEASE NOTE: This error is received only when the time is large *. Code computes fine when time required to compute data is small (ie, 300 time steps compared to 1000 time steps)

Answer 1

Are you repeatedly calling MPI_Irecv? If so, you may not realize that each call allocates a request handle - and these are freed when the message is received and tested for completion with (eg.) MPI_Test. It's possible you could exhaust memory with over-use of MPI_Irecv - or the memory assigned by an MPI implementation for this purpose.

Only seeing the code would confirm the problem.
