[Cython] MPI_Type_create_hindexed_block() segfaults

[Lisandro Dalcin]

I believe the problem is in the following source code line
(file:ompi_datatype_args.c, line:221):

https://bitbucket.org/ompiteam/ompi-svn-mirror/src/v1.8/ompi/datatype/ompi_datatype_args.c?at=v1.8#cl-221

I think you should just remove that bogus line, and that's all.


[dalcinl at kw2060 openmpi]$ cat type_hindexed_block.c
#include <mpi.h>
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  MPI_Aint disps[] = {0};
  MPI_Datatype datatype;
  MPI_Init(&argc, &argv);
  MPI_Type_create_hindexed_block(1, 1, disps, MPI_BYTE, &datatype);
  MPI_Finalize();
  return 0;
}
