Hello OpenMPI devs,

I know this can be a bit vague question, but I am looking for some hint
that could help me to debug the problem I am facing here.

I am trying to create a dynamic window inside a collective operation.
Inside the operation, the call to ompi_win_create_dynamic hangs with
processes waiting in ompi_request_wait_completion:

rc = ompi_comm_nextcid_nb (newcomm, comm, bridgecomm, arg0, arg1,
send_first, mode, &req);
    if (OMPI_SUCCESS != rc) {
        return rc;
    }

ompi_request_wait_completion (req);

There is nothing obvious there but I can see from my debugging that
processes end up in (opal_progress.c):

#if OPAL_HAVE_SCHED_YIELD
    if (opal_progress_yield_when_idle && events <= 0) {
        /* If there is nothing to do - yield the processor - otherwise
         * we could consume the processor for the entire time slice. If
         * the processor is oversubscribed - this will result in a best-case
         * latency equivalent to the time-slice.
         */
        sched_yield();
    }
#endif  /* defined(HAVE_SCHED_YIELD) */

I have been debugging it for a while now and I am starting to feel like
I am driving in circles. Is there anything I should look at in this
particular situation? What could possible be the caused?

Regards,
Luis
