<br>
we detected the behavior with IntelMPI 2019 (which is based on MPICH <br>
3.3). Reproducing it with MPICH-3.3 was not yet successful. But I fear, <br>
that our built of MPICH just not uses the necessary code path / build flags.<br>
<br>
When calling MPI_Iprobe with the same communicator for ~2^31 times <br>
(which can take 10-30 minutes), the execution stops with:<br>
<br>
Abort(201962501) on node 0 (rank 0 in comm 0): Fatal error in <br>
PMPI_Iprobe: Invalid communicator, error stack:<br>
PMPI_Iprobe(123): MPI_Iprobe(src=MPI_ANY_SOURCE, tag=MPI_ANY_TAG, <br>
MPI_COMM_WORLD, flag=0x7ffd925056c0, status=0x7ffd92505694) failed<br>
PMPI_Iprobe(90).: Invalid communicator<br>
<br>
From my understanding of the referenced MPICH code lines, I guess, that <br>
the ref-count for MPI_COMM_WORLD overflows, which triggers this error <br>
message.<br>
