Greetings Yatindra; thanks for responding. Just curious: are you replying in response to the discussion that just came up a few days ago on https://github.com/open-mpi/ompi/pull/11282, where we set the upcoming Open MPI v5.0's configure script to abort in 32-bit environments? I.e., are you part of the Debian community?
Regardless, there are several aspects of 32 bit support that are needed: * Bug fixes in OpenPMIx * Potential bug fixes in PRRTE * Potential bug Open MPI * Testing of all 3 of the above Specifically: we know that there are 32-bit bugs in OpenPMIx that need to be resolved. As such, we stopped testing 32 bit in all 3 projects quite a while ago. Hence, even when 32-bit support is re-enabled in OpenPMIx, other 32-bit bugs may surface in PRRTE and Open MPI that require fixing. There will also need to be continual testing of all 3 of these in 32-bit environments. This likely doesn't mean writing new tests, but rather running at least some subset of our existing tests in 32 bit environments to ensure that everything works properly. Is this something that you would be able to provide? ________________________________ From: devel <devel-boun...@lists.open-mpi.org> on behalf of Yatindra Vaishnav via devel <devel@lists.open-mpi.org> Sent: Sunday, February 5, 2023 2:32 AM To: devel@lists.open-mpi.org <devel@lists.open-mpi.org> Cc: Yatindra Vaishnav <yatindr...@hotmail.com> Subject: [OMPI devel] 32 bit support needs a maintainer Hi All, I’m Yatindra I would like to maintain this 32-bit support.
