I haven't done any work in the cm pml so I can't definitively answer
your question, but wouldn't you set req_status.MPI_ERROR in your MTL
depending on the result of the request?

Hi,
I was issuing an MPI_Bcast in a sample program and was hitting an
unknown error; at least that was what MPI was telling me. I traced
through the code to find my error and came upon
MCA_PML_CM_REQUEST_INIT_COMMON macro function in pml_cm_sendreq.h.
I looked at the function and noticed that in this function the
elements of req_status were getting initialized; however,
req_status.MPI_ERROR was not. I thought that maybe MPI_ERROR must
also require initialization because if the value of MPI_ERROR was
some arbitrary value not equal to MPI_SUCCESS then my program will
definitely die. Unless, MPI_ERROR is propragating from upper layers
to signify an error, but I wasn't sure. Anyway, I assumed that
MPI_ERROR was not propagating from upper layers, so then I set
req_status.MPI_ERROR to MPI_SUCCUSS and reran my test program. My
program worked. Now, having gotten my program to work, I thought I
should run this by you to make sure that MPI_ERROR was not
propagating from upper layers. Is it ok that I did a:
"(req_send)->req_base.req_ompi.req_status.MPI_ERROR = MPI_SUCCESS;"
in MCA_PML_CM_REQUEST_INIT_COMMON?
Thank You,
Sajjad Tabib
