I mean getenv("OMPI_MCA_apath") in setup_fork.

oops, I should use the word "MCA parameters". If I define a MCA parameter
(apath, for example) in etc/openmpi-mca-params.conf, how can function
setup_fork in ompi/orte/mca/schizo/ompi/schizo_ompi.c get its value? I tried
to call getenv("apath") there, which return null.
However, If I defined it in the cmd line, mpirun -mca apath=sth .., then I
could get it in setup_fork.
Did I miss something?

I'm not quite sure what you're asking. The openmpi-mca-params.conf does not
define environment variables; it only sets values for Open MPI's MCA parameters
(i.e., run-time parameters).
If you want to pass environment variables from the environment of mpirun to the
MPI processes that it starts, use the -x CLI option to mpirun. For example:
export FOO=bar
mpirun -x FOO --host a,b -np 2 my_mpi_program
--
