It's been 3 weeks since we discussed the membind interface. How far are we from an acceptable API? Is there anything missing apart from documentation updates? Should I revert the cpumembind stuff?
I'd like some feedback about the distance API too. The internal implementation isn't perfect yet, but we need to know what if the API is ok. I know some people want this so please have a look at: http://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/hwloc/browser/branches/distances/include/hwloc.h#L363 and some helpers at: http://svn.open-mpi.org/trac/hwloc/browser/branches/distances/include/hwloc/helper.h#L629 Usually the topology root object will contain a matrix of distances between all NUMA nodes, but the interface also support distances between only children of a non-root object. Right now, we only have latencies in these distance structures, but we might add distances in terms of "how many links/routers between us" in the future. We need to start doing 1.1rc very soon, let's settle the 1.1 API. Brice
