Gabriele,

The thread support has to be explicitly requested at build time, or it will be disabled. Add --enable-mpi-threads (configure --help will give you more info) to your configure. If you plan to use threads with Open MPI I strongly suggest to update to the 1.3. This version is not yet released, but you can download the source from the nightly build section.

Another question about MPI_INIT_THREAD.

At the moment, as said, my OpenMPi version supports only level 0: MPI_THREAD_SINGLE. Suppose that i have this code:

#pragma omp barrier
#pragma omp master
       MPI_Send(buf,...);
#pragma omp barrier

Due my OpenMPI configuration, is it dangerous use this type of code? What does it means that OpenMPI doesn't support all thread levels of MPI_INIT_THREAD?

Dear OpenMPi developers,
i've noted that OpenMPI 1.25 and 1.2.6 version doesn't supports thread initialization function shows below:

int MPI_Init_thread(int *argc, char *((*argv)[]), int required, int *provided)

used in hybrid programming MPI+OpenMP. Returned vales provided is 0, so the unique thread level supported is MPI_THREAD_SINGLE.

Whitch is the newest OpenMPI version that has full support for MPI_THREAD_SINGLE, MPI_THREAD_FUNNELED, MPI_THREAD_SERIALIZED and MPI_THREAD_MULTIPLE?

Thanks in advance.
