According to MPI 3.1, Section 8.1.2, the attribute value of<br>
MPI_TAG_UB attached to MPI_COMM_WORLD can be inquired by function<br>
MPI_Comm_get_attr(). It has the same value on all processes of<br>
MPI_COMM_WORLD.<br>
<br>
My first question is should this value be the same across different runs?</blockquote>

<div dir="auto">I would expect it to be the same when running with the same options. It is possible that it will change for different numbers of processes. It is also possible that it changes based upon the network or which back-end is used (eg libfabric provider).</div>

A small test program using MPICH 3.3 shows they are not the same across<br>
runs and across processes. But when compiled with the latest master branch,<br>
they are the same. So, can I assume the answer to my question is YES and<br>
MPICH has fixed this in the master branch?<br>
<br>
My second question is that I notice MPI_TAG_UB is defined as a constant<br>
of 0x64400001 (=1681915905) in mpi.h. That value is not the one returned<br>
by MPI_Comm_get_attr(), which is 10345120. Is this intended?<br>
</blockquote>
<div dir="auto"><br>
</div>
<div dir="auto">I don’t think that’s the value but the key used to query it. You need to call get_attr rather than look at this value. The key is meaningless by itself.</div>

I also tested OpenMPI 4.0.0. The inconsistency occurs across different<br>
runs, as well as different processes. I can see OpenMPI defines<br>
MPI_TAG_UB as an enum type, rather than a constant.<br>
