Hi Alessandro, It is very hard to think about the reason for your problem without any code. Can you send us your test code and the version of MPICH you are using?

I cannot find anything in the standard that denies it for the one-sided. Running with OpenMPI everything works fine. Is it a bug or I missed something in the standard? Thanks.
