Completes one out of several outstanding operations.

Syntax

int MPIAPI MPI_Waitany(
        int                              count,
        _Inout_count_(count) MPI_Request *array_of_requests,
  _Out_ int                              *index,
  _Out_ MPI_Status                       *status
);

Parameters

count
The number of entries in the array_of_requests parameter.
array_of_requests
An array of MPI_Request handles of outstanding operations.
index [out]
A pointer to an integer that indicates the index in the array_of_requests parameter of the operation that is completed. The array is indexed from zero in C, and from one in Fortran.
status [out]
A pointer to an MPI_Status object that describes the completed operation.

Return value

Returns MPI_SUCCESS on success. Otherwise, the return value is an error code.

In Fortran, the return value is stored in the IERROR parameter.

Fortran

    MPI_WAITANY(COUNT, ARRAY_OF_REQUESTS, INDEX, STATUS, IERROR)
        INTEGER COUNT, ARRAY_OF_REQUESTS, INDEX, STATUS(MPI_STATUS_SIZE), IERROR

Remarks

This function is a non-local operation. Successful completion might depend on matching operations at other processes.

This function returns when one of the operations that is associated with active requests in the array_of_requests parameter is completed. If more than one outstanding operation is completed, one is arbitrarily chosen. If the completed operation is a persistent communication operation, the persistent request is marked as inactive. A nonpersistent operation is deallocated, and its corresponding entry in the array_of_requests parameter is set to MPI_REQUEST_NULL.

Entries in the array_of_requests parameter can be MPI_REQUEST_NULL or a handle to an inactive persistent communication request. If the count parameter is zero, or all entries in array_of_requests are MPI_REQUEST_NULL or inactive persistent communication requests, then the function returns immediately with the index parameter set to MPI_UNDEFINED and an empty status.
