[Mpi-22] New proposal: Support for large message counts

[Narasimhan, Kannan]

We can certainly consider this option, since it abstracts along the same lines as MPI_Offset.

Thanx!
Kannan

Dear Kannan,

Thanks. Why don't we define MPI_Count datatype instead, and make that grow if necessary?

Best regards.

Alexander

I have submitted a new 2.2 proposal to addresses the need for large message counts (i.e. counts greater than the size of 32-bit integer) for MPI calls that communicate messages.

Please refer to
https://svn.mpi-forum.org/trac/mpi-forum-web/wiki/mpi22/LargeMsgCounts
for details.

Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Thanx!
Kannan
