PetscSplitOwnership#

Given a global (or local) length determines a local (or global) length via a simple formula

Synopsis#

#include "petscsys.h" 
PetscErrorCode PetscSplitOwnership(MPI_Comm comm, PetscInt *n, PetscInt *N)

Collective (if n or N is PETSC_DECIDE)

Input Parameters#

  • comm - MPI communicator that shares the object being divided

  • n - local length (or PETSC_DECIDE to have it set)

  • N - global length (or PETSC_DECIDE)

Notes#

n and N cannot be both PETSC_DECIDE

If one processor calls this with n or N of PETSC_DECIDE then all processors must. Otherwise, an error is thrown in debug mode while the program will hang in optimized (i.e. configured –with-debugging=0) mode.
