Open wesbland opened 8 years ago

wesbland commented 8 years ago

Overview

This ticket is a split from ticket #20. It covers the specific semantics of fault tolerance for RMA operations.

Impact on Implementations

Adds the MPI_WIN_REVOKE and MPI_WIN_GET_FAILED functions and clarifies the memory semantics after a process failure.

Impact on Applications / Users

Provides fault tolerance to interested users. Users / implementations that do not care about fault tolerance can opt out.
