#08/09/21 webex notes

Attending: Howard Pritchard, Thomas Hines, Joseph Schuchart, Dan Holmes, Dominik Huber

Agenda items

  • MPI 4.1 dynamic chapter items and what to present at the next voting meeting. Note Howard will be on vacation that week.
  • Restart discussions where we left off on dynamic process sets and RT/app interaction use cases. Track down location of working documents.

Eurompi '21 session chair/vision statement at the beginning of the sessions related thing. Dan can do this.

Discuss pull requests 617 and 610, as well as issue 434. Also we may need more changes to chap-dynamic based on rewording Dan is doing for the pt2pt chapter.

Discuss diagrams from Dan (state transition) and Joseph (data flows). Martin Schulz and Dan worked on a straw-man API based on these diagrams. Need to log in to miro.

Discuss issue 434. Let's just require world model when using MPI_Comm_spawn/MPI_Comm_get_parent. We'll do something new for 5.0, but it would be too much to introduce into 4.1. Howard will open a new PR to address. Do we need a list of MPI functions/functionality that is only available if MPI_INit has been called? Example of needing a communicator before MPI_Recv/MPI_Send. Looking at comm_accept/comm_connect and MPI_Open_port. Seems like there are some holes with sesessions, since there's no way to map a port_name back to a session with the current API. Just don't support with sessions for 4.1.
