I agree also with Kathryn - some of those don't sound like MPI_T, but this could also speak for an integration through PAPI so that tools can grab all data from one source.<br>
<br>We are getting quite a list to talk about (I'll also have some for the PMPI2 ready and I think we should take a look at Craig's wrapper generator) - I know Jeff is also busy in the hybrid WG, but we could have some of the discussions on Tuesday parallel to RMA if we need/want the time. Fab has two rooms for us all day on Tuesday as well.<br>

<br>Of this list, I think "other MPI layer data" is the only type of data I expected to expose via MPI_T (i.e., it's kinda what we designed MPI_T for). The others are all use cases that I was not previously expecting. Interesting.<br>
</blockquote><br>Some of these are out of the scope that I would expected to be provided by MPI_T and could be provided by other libraries. I agree that I imagined it would be information specific to the MPI library or whatever it was already collecting. But, you are right, interesting!<br>

<br>I ask because, especially for pvars, if you loop over reading a bunch of them, they're not atomic, and you might not get consistent values. But if you can issue a single MPI_T read for N values all at once, you have a much better chance of getting an atomic/consistent set of values.<br>
