Hi Everybody, I have some questions to ask regarding the implementation of hints in PVFS2.
Like the file "src/mpi/romio/adio/include/adioi.h" in the mpich2 src tree, is there any similar file in the pvfs2 src tree which has a hint structure. Basically, I want to know if there is any generic hint structure in pvfs2 which can take care of (accept) hints passed by higher layers such as MPI, and if so, which files? (whether pvfs2 acts on it or not does not matter) I want to know if such an infrastructure exists already? I was just browsing through the pvfs2 code and I found that there is some PINT_hint_info structure. Is this a generic hint structure or is this related to some specific component in pvfs2? (I understand that there are more than one hint structures in pvfs2 such as related to metadata) Is there any documenation on hints in pvfs2 (docs, papers) where I could read about it? I am not familiar with the pvfs2 src code and would really appreciate all the help that I could get from you'll. Thanks and Regards, Christina. _______________________________________________ Pvfs2-developers mailing list [email protected] http://www.beowulf-underground.org/mailman/listinfo/pvfs2-developers
