Thanks for the replies and sorry for the incomplete information. I should have written that I get a segfault for np=2 but not np=1. Find the exact error message below. I've also tried the program Jeff sent and I get the same segfault as before for all np>1. I'll try to checkout and build the development version and see if I can reproduce.

Indeed, Rob is right.  I only tested np<=2.  Didn't see failure until nproc=16 because of how malloc works but in any case, it is trivial to fix this by allocating C to be nproc elements.

On my El Capitan macbook I get a segfault when running the program below
with more than a single process but only when MPICH has been compiled

I don't get that good debug info but here is some of what I got


valgrind is pretty good at sussing out these sorts of things:

     A = calloc(1, sizeof(uint64_t));
     C = calloc(2, sizeof(uint64_t));
     A[0] = rnk + 1;

     MPI_Allgather(A, 1, MPI_UINT64_T, C, 1, MPI_UINT64_T, comm);

Your 'buf count tuple' is ok for A: every process sends one uint64

your 'buf count tuple' is too small for C if there are any more than 2 proceses .

When you say "more than one"... do you mean 2?
