Description
Problem
MPI_COMM_TYPE_RESOURCE_GUIDED
achieves the same objective as
MPI_COMM_TYPE_HW_GUIDED
and is more generic. There would be no need
for both, provided that MPI_COMM_TYPE_RESOURCE_GUIDED
is voted in.
Proposal
Deprecate the use of MPI_COMM_TYPE_HW_GUIDED
Changes to the Text
Remove the text that defines MPI_COMM_TYPE_HW_GUIDED
in MPI_Comm_split_type
as it will be eventually duplicated in the text describing MPI_COMM_TYPE_RESOURCE_GUIDED
.
Impact on Implementations
None.
Impact on Users
The users would have to change a constant name in their applications.
