Error Handler Issues #1 & #3

Slides

We discussed error handler inheritance and how it should be specified: * Background: We want to allow both behaviors (always inherit and never inherit) because there are both performance and backward compatibility reasons to have both. * It's probably not viable to do this via info keys or attributes as they are currently specified. * We should add this as a parameter to MPI_Errhandler_set (the new function in the greenfield work) * This will move this part of the specification out of issues #1 & #3 so we'll leave the inheritance specification as is for now and fix it in the greenfield work.

Next steps

  • Remove the inheritance text from the proposal
  • Re-read for the MPI Forum
  • Provide implementation of these ideas
