Again, I'm not a CM guy :-), but in general, I would think: yes, you
set MPI_ERROR when it is appropriate. I.e., when you know that the
request has been successful or it has failed.

Hi Jeff,
Now that you mention it, I believe you are right. In fact, I did
not know that I needed to set the req_status.MPI_ERROR in my MTL. I
looked at the mx mtl and realized that req_status.MPI_ERROR is
getting set in their progress function. So, in general, when do you
set the req_status.MPI_ERROR? After a send/recv has completed
successfully?
Thank You,
Sajjad Tabib

Re: [OMPI devel] Question regarding
MCA_PML_CM_SEND_REQUEST_INIT_COMMON
I haven't done any work in the cm pml so I can't definitively answer
your question, but wouldn't you set req_status.MPI_ERROR in your MTL
depending on the result of the request?
