MPI_ROOT is required for the rooted operations of the inter-communicator collectives in MPI-2, I am not aware of that you need MPI_ROOT in intra-communicator collectives as defined in MPI-1.

Thanks

The constant MPI_ROOT is not universally defined in all current shipping MPI implementations.

Is there any MPI function/call that requires MPI_ROOT?

From the complete reference it appears that MPI_ALLGATHER might be the one routine.


This all relates to portability, code I write using OpenMPI has to work on other systems not using OpenMPI.
